STAR CROSS

crosios ( crow-see-ohs ) not a god, not a spirit. a simple incorporeal form that seeks knowledge. without end or beginning, a being that feeds off of the memories of others. a being that does not know what it truly desires. beware those that try to...

“ alright, consider me surprised. there was no need to kill them, though. “

he sighs some, raising a hand to wipe blood from its cheek with his thumb. the sight of blood doesn’t bother him, which should probably disturb him some, and yet it’s as normal as anything else in his life.

“ sometimes it pays to hold back on your strikes. “

“There was also no need to not kill them.”

Who they were, who they left behind----Crosios never cared. It still doesn’t. When the brush of fingers registers, it hesitates before setting a hand on Madara’s hip.

“But my dear friend, I hold back with you all the time.”

“See? It told you that it could dispatch of them without use of its powers.

What use is thousands of years of life without learning something useful?

Now, since it won, it thinks a reward is in order.” It definitely looks comical

whilst it grins like an idiot splattered with blood.

another sigh, more exasperated than the last escapes him. crosios’s tone makes him feel bad, and he curls thing fingers around its wrist to hold onto it.

“ i’m not averse to it. i’m simply not used to it. and as i said a thousand times now, it’s not because of you. “

[crosiosarchive]

“It’s not you, it’s me----what is this, an Icha Icha novel?” Sass is uncontained as it tries to shrug off the fact that it is bothered by this whole ordeal in the first place.

“It experienced it; now it is over with. Let’s move on.”

@toseverthisworld

madara gave the tiniest of sighs, shaking his head lightly as he folded his arms across his chest. he can only suppose that crosios lost the nerve because of him, since he hadn’t reacted well to the idea the last time the two of them were alone.

“ you’re fine. it was fine. next time, don’t sneak up on me, alright? “

“Yes, yes, it understands. And it won’t make there be a next time. It knows

you dislike this sort of thing.” But Crosios wants to be selfish, so it thinks

that one kiss wouldn’t kill Madara. “But if you want there to be a next time,

it expects you to be the one to initiate, since you seem so irked at affection.”

“ you’re lucky you didn’t catch me entirely by surprise. i don’t react ell when surprised. “

he’s rather glad he doesn’t have to explain attempting to stab the other with a kunai. at least the absurdity of the situation makes it easy to keep the blush off his face.

“ you could have simply asked. i said you could kiss me the last time you asked. “

“It isn’t very familiar with courage. Last time, it lost the nerve.”

Crosios sighed, shrugging a little.

“But this time it reached its goal. And it apologizes if the kiss was

not very good----it heard that it is very possible to be bad at kissing.”

[crosiosarchive]

@toseverthisworld

the contact is sudden and crosios is lucky madara saw it – and sensed it – before it grabbed him, else he wouldn’t have his fingers curled in the heavy sleeves of crosios’s clothing; he would’ve been grabbing for the nearest weapon.

he makes no sound when kissed, but does make a tiny sound of surprise when crosios pulls away.

“ that came out of nowhere. “

“Perhaps.”

Or maybe it had been a long time coming, despite the Uchiha’s general hesitation when it came to anything along the lines of romance.

“But it wanted its first kiss to be with you and five thousand eternities could pass before you did anything like that.”

The smirk denotes its satisfaction.

“Besides----you did not try to kill it, so it assumes you did not find the kiss too terrible.”

[crosiosarchive]

@toseverthisworld

Walks up to Madara, grabs him by the collar, and kisses him.

“You are mine.”

[crosiosarchive]

Now Crosios is sad, so it will simply lay on a bed and do nothing.

It isn’t even breathing.

Too much effort.

@toseverthisworld

he sighs, turning ebony eyes up to crosios’s face. it feels strange for the other to be so close to him, despite saying that.

“ i haven’t had the best experiences. tales tell that my clan is cursed to be hurt by it. “

he has gained and lost friends in the same breath because of the stupidity of the uchiha at times. because of his own madness. he doesn’t wish to relive it.

“ it’s not because of you, i promise. “

“It has watched entire star systems die and it has still not found anything to tell it what its purpose is. Who is the cursed  one here?” Perhaps Madara forgets that he speaks to a mere thing----and despite its autonomy, sometimes it wishes it could just fade out of existence like everything else does.

“It doesn’t need your promises.”

When do promises do any good? Things still are unchanged between them.

“What it asked was a silly notion, anyways.”

He steps away from the other, gaze unreadable.

“And it would rather keep you than drive you away.”

[crosiosarchive]

@toseverthisworld

that makes him pause some, his fingers twitching on the table as he glances away from crosios.

love has never been good to him. love has never been good to any uchiha. the thought of it makes him itch on a base level, and he curls his fingers atop the wood.

“ that isn’t up to me, you know. what you are allowed to say is up to you. “

“It is, because it would rather not say such a thing if it would cause you irritation.” Crosios does not mind if the feelings are not returned----it never expects to be loved. Not by Madara----not by any mortal.

“Even now you cannot look at it when the idea is even spoken of. So perhaps it made a mistake of speaking about such things. It apologizes.”

[crosiosarchive]

@toseverthisworld

“ because you don’t make it your life’s mission to irritate me or make me make my life hell. “

he huffs softly, curling his fingers just the briefest bit tighter before uncurling them and folding his hands on he desk again.

“ i’m aware. you’ve told me before. “

“If it was alive, it would make its life’s mission to make you learn what it it to open ones heart to another.”

But it does not consider itself alive----it does not even consider itself worthy of these things----but for some reason Madara is willing to treat it almost as if it really were human.

“Is it allowed to say it knows love when it looks to you?”

[crosiosarchive]

@toseverthisworld

“ you’ve known me a long time, crosios. you know i’m not a very affectionate person. “

he catches its wrist loosely with his right hand, eyeing crosios quietly.

“ i suppose one kiss won’t hurt. “

“Yes, but it notices you’ve opened yourself up to it more than others.”

Crosios double takes when Madara consents.

“You----really?” 

It’s rare for Crosios to smile in such a sincere manner, but Madara has a way

of making him do such. Crosios presses its forehead against the others gently,

gaze softening.

“It really does care for you, Madara.”

[crosiosarchive]

@toseverthisworld

he nearly leans away from the touch. nearly. he’s not a physically affectionate person, if that wasn’t obvious.

“ i’ve heard you make mention of it before. why bother with it now? “

he’s trying to deflect from crosios’s question.

“It likes you.”

If that wasn’t obvious before.

“But it also sees you do not seem to desire this, so the thought may

as well be forsaken.”

And Crosios draws its hand away, back to its side in a harmless state.

[crosiosarchive]

@toseverthisworld

blunt, yes, but still enough to fluster madara.

his face flushes a bit, no more than a pale shade of pink, and he huffs some, glancing away.

“ where did this come from? “

“It has stated for a very long----at least it thinks it is a long time----

that it would find it pleasing to engage in typical human contact

associated with affection.” Crosios’ head tilts, reaching over to touch

Madara’s cheek. “You are blushing. Why?”

[crosiosarchive]

@toseverthisworld

“ i suppose. “

madara sets his pen down gingerly and folds his hands on his desk, eyeing crosios quietly.

“ what is it? “

“It wants to kiss you.”

Blunt & to the point, but Crosios isn’t one for feeling shame.

“Is this something you would find agreeable?”
