but, when sylus appears behind him. this is flirty rafayel who is not daunted. jk, he is surprised but he definitely recovers quickly enough. at least, when he doesn't think sylus is trying to kill him. ] Oh, that intense...
Should I pretend to be caught? [ there is no pretending...
[ No, he teleported after receiving the kiss. That's canon.
He also thinks Rafayel is so funny. Stepping back a bit, he presses a finger against the top of his spine, idly tracing it downward, trying to see if he shies away without the upper hand. ]
his body twitches just a little from the touch. it's subtle enough where he plays it off, by leaning back, turning his head to look back at him briefly. ] No. Because, a hunter's only interested when they're on the chase.
And when they're hunting, well, they get their full attention, right?
[ going to try to lower his weight a little and elbow sylus in the ribs. ]
If it's the truth, then there's no hurt in making a contract, right? It'll say, "I, Sylus, will always keep my attention on Rafayel." [ i guess his way of romance is contracts now.
but, now that he has sylus, he pauses. what does he want to do?
he just has the urge to touch him, and so he does, trying to rub his hand on his cheek. ]
[ sorry he can't do the famous sexy man poses like sylus does
even in this state, he feels like what sylus is saying isn't far-fetched. but, at the same time, he still refutes it. ] Is that your way of saying you're going to make me miserable? Are you going to cage me and whip me everyday?
No, not at all. Do you want to know what my fantasy is?
[ there are no rare species of flowers he can resurrect on the brink of extinction to show how he he currently feels. maybe that's for the best considering he's about to regret this by the time these feelings wear off, but it's true that he keeps looking at sylus' lips. (pain) ]
[ no... he has money and time... his extinct aquatic plants.
but, thanks sylus for being easy. if this was any other time, perhaps rafayel would have considered the consequences of his own actions. but, as it stands, he barely waits for sylus to finish asking his question before he tries to press his lips against his. unfortunately, it may not be a chaste kiss... ]
[ RAFAYEL COMING IN HOT WITH TONGUE. Honestly, Sylus is not concerned with Rafayel's maidenhood. Maybe if he were a more delicate person, Sylus wouldn't let them kiss him while he's aware that they're clearly under the influence of something. But Rafayel... he can live with it.
So it's not out of kindness that he grabs Rafayel's chin to stop him, close enough that their lips barely brush, but no further. ]
when he's caught mid-way, he just stares at sylus. honestly, his own head is hazy and he can't really think up an answer for a second. oh, right. maybe it's just like this that the feeling of romance finally... leaves his body, and he just stands there.
[ WHY DO YOU ONLY WANT TO KISS HIM WHEN HE'S GOT HIS RIGHT MIND BACK?
for a second, he's about to open his mouth and say something, but what the hell? he's being kissed? there are like two beta fish fighting inside of him on whether he wants to return the kiss on instinct, or run away.
... and so he pushes sylus off and tries to make a run for it. ]
[ in the few seconds it takes sylus to come to that conclusion, rafayel is doing his best to regain his bearings. especially now that sylus is nonconning him to face him???
he's clearing his throat for a moment, before he answers back in tune. ] Why would I be? Looks like it works even on the Boss-man.

You're not giving either of us though credit.
[ But it's a fair response. He knows what he comes across as. ]
There's no one more loyal with their attention than me.
[ Unless... you're not deserving of it. ]
no subject
but, yeah rafayel is coming back in, if because he's naturally competitive... ]
Yeah? Well, I might have to get that in writing. No offense.
[ going to try and grab sylus... ]

Believe me or don't. It's the truth.

That seems like the sort of thing that would make you miserable.

[ touching sylus' ear now. ]
no subject
You've got quite the imagination. Is that a fantasy of yours?
[ He would rather be caged up and tamed himself... Genuinely would be so flattered if the hunter caged him, actually. ]

No, not at all. Do you want to know what my fantasy is?

Sometimes you are a basic bitch who doesn't mind being caged up. ]
What is it?
[ Puts a hand on Rafayel's waist... Contemplating how much he's going to regret this later. ]

Right. The effect wore off.

The audacity of this fish is incredible. ]
Isn't this where you talk about how much you don't want me around?
[ Since Rafayel likes to play the nonchalant Olympics.
Flicks his ear. ]
