[tri OOM] Yamato and Quentin

[angry_friendship_wolf]

Yamato's room is as neat as ever, apart from all the maps and notepads on his desk, where he's been working out repair plans and routes.

The video games he mentioned are also readily apparent: There are three on the kitchen work surface, the boxes still in their outer plastic packaging: What looks like a brightly coloured kart racing game, Rodrigo's Super Kart Racing; an equally brightly coloured fighting game, Deadly Iron Brawl X; and what seems to be a fairly serious looking flight simulator game, entitled Jet Flight Simulator 2006.

"I haven't actually played any of them yet," Yamato notes.

Comments

"You'll find a scarf with style maybe with wolf paws on it." Quentin finds the hickey with his fingers and gives it a little caress.

[angry_friendship_wolf]

"... Well, that just sounds adorable. Was this all just a plan to get me to wear cute wolf-patterned clothing?"

How dastardly.

[heatherandsteel]

"No, but I'll take credit for it."

[angry_friendship_wolf]

"Diabolical," Yamato says somberly, shaking his head. "You're basically a supervillain, you know that?"

[heatherandsteel]

Quentin shrugs at that, he knows from what Bridget's been saying that to her all Fae are villains, "I know what looks good on you."

[angry_friendship_wolf]

"Noted," Yamato chuckles, dropping a quick kiss onto Quentin's forehead. "If I ever need to dress up nice, I'll make sure to ask you for tips."

[heatherandsteel]

Quentin smiles, "Wouldn't be hard to make you look good."

[angry_friendship_wolf]

"Now you're just trying to flatter me," Yamato laughs.

[heatherandsteel]

Quentin traces a line down Yamato's chest, "No, like how you look."

[angry_friendship_wolf]

Yamato chuckles again. "I know, I know," he says. "Although, y'know, you look good no matter what you're wearing. So there."

One-up-manship is alive and well.

[heatherandsteel]

Quentin kisses Yamato, "Fair enough."

[angry_friendship_wolf]

Yamato gives a short laugh, of the 'I have won the compliment war that we were clearly having,' variety.

"What's next for you, when you go back to your world? Waiting for Toby and Tybalt to get back, or ... ?"

[heatherandsteel]

"Waiting and being as ready as possible for whatever happens next."

[angry_friendship_wolf]

"I hope things turn out okay. That Toby and Tybalt find this teleporting girl you're after, and bring her and Raj back," Yamato says. "But if something does go wrong, I know you'll all figure out a way through it."

[heatherandsteel]

"Something always goes wrong, just a matter of what and how much Toby bleeds." He sighs and leans back on Yamato.

[angry_friendship_wolf]

"She'll be okay. She has Tybalt with her, after all," Yamato says. "... Not that I'm discounting the possibility that she'll end up bleeding, given what you've told me, but at least she'll heal fast, right?"

[heatherandsteel]

"She does, even faster than I do."

[angry_friendship_wolf]

Yamato cocks his head. "Does it just vary from individual, or is there some kind of difference between the two of you that speeds up her healing?"

It's never a wrong time for scientific inquiry into the rates of healing.

[heatherandsteel]

"She's of a slightly different race, her blood magic is more powerful than mine."

[angry_friendship_wolf]

"Huh. How many different races of faerie are there, anyway?"

[heatherandsteel]

"A lot. I've had to learn most of them as part of my education."

[angry_friendship_wolf]

"I guess it's an essential part of maintaining cordial relations, diplomacy, all that kind of stuff," Yamato says, tilting his head. "Gives a strategic advantage, too, if it comes down to that."

[heatherandsteel]

"Yes and all the family lines especially of nobility."

[angry_friendship_wolf]

Yamato wrinkles his nose a little at that.

"Yeah, my grandfather had to learn something similar. Not for any good reason, it was just useless information for the sake of it for him," he says, shaking his head. "Knowing all that stuff is probably going to be a lot more useful for you, though, what with all the courtly intrigue in your world."

[heatherandsteel]

"Yeah, it has been helpful sometimes." Though usually in a weird way since Toby's problems are never simple.
