“Consent is a beautiful thing and I must thank you for making a practice of acquiring it. Vulnerability can also be a very beautiful thing, in my opinion at least. Seeing the look of uncertainty in their eyes, only to watch as that vulnerable moment turns to something more when you can show them more of yourself. Call me very old fashion but there is something beautiful in trust.” He laughed at himself as a blush formed on his cheeks, however he let himself move even closer to the vampire. Not that his guard was completely down but it was lowered. “As for me, I am quite comfortable in my nudity. I simply enjoy clothing, or perhaps it is the promise of what clothes provide. The idea they have to be removed is exciting. Either ripping them off in a desperate passion or tenderly exploring what lies underneath. I speak sexually of course.” Kronos gave a light shrug but found himself just a step away from Reginald. His tongue darted out to lick his bottom lip before he took it between his teeth to nip at the skin. He thought of what to say but found that it was harder than he thought to take a compliment from him. “I am flattered, Reginald. To be beautiful to someone is exciting but I find myself curious. To you, would enjoying each other physically tear away the unknown? With the unknown gone, will you grow bored? I am quite the bore here at Krovs but I am not without my own desire.”

“It is, and you’re very welcome. As for the vulnerability, yes I suppose seeing it in another’s eyes is very exciting. It gives you a certain thrill like you wield some sort of power over the other. That you can pounce on them at any time, but watching that disappear and turn into a trust is even more exciting. If you truly want to make love to someone or get to truly take in the beauty of their nakedness then you are going to need that trust.” Smirking when he heard Kronos talk about being comfortable in his nudity but also be excited about the act of having his clothes removed be they ripped off or be tenderly explored underneath them. Raising a brow at him, “It almost sounds as if you are inviting me to do such things to you, Kronos. Are you?” 

Watching as the guard’s tongued darted to lick at his bottom lip, before nipping at his own skin. “Well, I am glad I could flatter. I doubt I would grow bored of you though. I don’t think I’ve ever come to grow bored of any of my muses ever, rather I find the opposite is more likely. My muse becomes bored with me.”

“Good to hear you keep up with the times,” Manny teased with a crooked grin. Though he did find it incredibly entertaining when some of the elder vampires seemed so confused by today’s technology. It reminded him of really young, hot-looking grandparents discovering a smart phone for the first time. He let Reginald take the lead, easily falling into step with the other man. “So, how old are you?” he asked, glancing over at him with a raised brow. His own master had been pretty high up on the age scale for a vampire and he hadn’t met anyone older than Kol. Yet. That he knew of. “What sort of hobbies do you have?”

Chuckling a little, the other was probably used to vampires that didn’t quite realize they were living in the twenty-first century. Reginald was certainly used to them, that was for sure. “Well, I imagine because of my line of work I have no choice but to keep up with the times. It’s hard to make movies if you don’t know the equipment they are made on.” When he was asked how old he actually was, all he gave was a sly grin, before squeezing Manny’s shoulder. “It’s rude to ask a lady their age you know. I’ll tell you what, if this becomes more than a one-time thing, then I’ll share that with you. As for my hobbies, well I like taking pictures of things, reading, solitaire, studying architecture. I like to think I’m cultured.”

At the moment Reg wouldn’t say he is in love with anyone. That could always change.

Reginald’s favorite song is, probably at the moment anyway, Stupid Love by Lady Gaga. He may not admit it, but he’s a little monster.”

“Or it may add to it.” Kronos suggested. He wore a simple black jacket over a white t-shirt and jeans. His arms lifted and he turned in a circle as if to show him. He then proceeded to take off his jacket and set it aside. The shirt was tight and left little to the imagination where his jeans were a bit looser fit, they still fit. “Maybe instead of adding to the personality, what you desire is vulnerability. Clothing has given many a chance to be more confident in themselves, to catch the eye of another with either their colors or style. Much like a male peacock showing off his colors to catch the eye of his female mate.” The elemental chuckled and crossed his arms over his chest. “Perhaps it is the vulnerability behind the once confident eyes that intrigues you.” Kronos found himself contemplating the questions, not quite certain how to answer. He liked it but it also terrified him. The male was not used to someone wanting him so intensely, even if it were for a moment. “Honestly, the intensity is intimidating. It is flattering and exciting yet… I admit I do not know how to accept it.” Kronos lifted his eyes to the vampire and remained a small distance from him. It seemed they were in the middle of a dance. “Tell me, what is it you would do? Why is it you look at me with intensity?”

Watching as he removed his jacket, Reginald raised an eyebrow a little surprised at the action, though he couldn’t help but run his eyes over the area the t-shirt covered. Licking his bottom lip a little he imagines how exciting it would be to slice the fabric off of the other’s body, but would never act on it without the guard’s approval. Rubbing his chin again as Kronos mentioned that maybe what Reginald sought was vulnerability. Perhaps it was, Reginald was a vampire to his core and they did seek to dominate over others at the end of the day. “That could very well play a part in it. Though you would be shocked at how many who are more comfortable out of their clothes then they are in them. Which are you? I won’t lie, I am still learning to be comfortable in my own skin in front of others, though I suppose that is because of my position in the castle.”

When he heard how Kronos answered that it intimidated him, Reg wasn’t surprised. Vampires were intimidating by nature, and having one stare at you most likely only fed into that. “Not many know how to accept it. I wouldn’t fret over that.” When Reg was asked what he would do and why he looked at him in such a way, the master couldn’t help but hum a little and move in closer to the other. “I would only do what you said I could. I am a very big believer in getting the consent of others, while I can do whatever I want, I do not wish to be cruel or evil to others. Rather I would want their trust. As to why I look at you in such a way? Because I think you are very attractive. Yet you’re incredibly soft, and those two often do not go together here at Krovs, especially when it comes to the hot guards.”

“Oh yes, I am well aware that my looks give pleasure to a few, yet many do not stare at me with such intensity. There was one, the same with your idea, a council member. He held a part of a dragon inside of him. Or more simply, a part of him. Admittedly, it is quite an intriguing feeling to be considered as an ornament.” Kronos chuckled and moved closer to the vampire. He was not afraid, though he probably should’ve been. A look of softness formed in his eyes at hearing the unfortunate issue that time seemed to cause for many creatures. “A shame.” Kronos looked down at the vampire’s hands before he let his eyes trail up his arms and to his neck. “What is it you find so beautiful in your photography? Is it the nakedness of skin or is it the creature within?” Kronos teased but there was a warmth about him, much like his nature. “If I may understand your desires more then I may be able to become the muse you desire.”

“Tell me, besides intriguing to be looked at this way, do you enjoy the feeling of being looked at with such intensity? To know that another thinks of you as an extremely attractive specimen? I’ve always wondered do you know how much power you hold over someone when they look at you in such a way?” Chuckling a little he saw as he moved closer. “I’ve been known lately to be quite willing to do a lot of things to get photographs of my muses.” 

Watching as Kronos’ features softened the other was very interesting both in looks but also in personality, and Reg had a great urge to get to know all aspects of him better. “Yes, I think it is because with such advanced ages we see so much that we can imagine so little.” He noted as Kronos’ eyes moved from his hand to his arms to his neck. “Sometimes both, sometimes one or the other. A body can be beautiful but so can the personality that is seen beneath the eyes. People tend to think nakedness is just to show off the body, but I think it can show off the soul. It all just depends on what’s in the eyes, and the body language. Clothes, they just obscure it. They can change what a person really is.”

“What is a few more syllables?” The elemental smiled and found himself slightly enjoying the way the other looked at him. He’d been getting a bit more attention recently, which was strange in his opinion, but for someone not used to it, he honestly had begun to enjoy it. “I feel you staring, Reginald.” Kronos commented but chuckled lightly at his compliments. The male turned his attention back to the photographer after he had placed the brushes back where they belonged. He crossed his arms over his chest but found himself curious of his vision. “You know, you are the second person to hold that theory. Perhaps it is simply my own interpretation of beauty, but the joy of imagination far more enjoyable to me. I do not mean to say nudity is not beautiful. Simply that a button down shirt left unbuttoned at the top in a pair of unbuttoned deep blue jeans holds a fair amount of beauty in itself.” Kronos watched him with a soft gaze but there was something deeper in his eyes, something almost primal.

Feeling a light blush appear on his face when the other mentioned that he could feel the vampire staring at him. Giving a small shrug finally, “What can I say? You make a very nice image to stare at, Kronos. I would think you’d be used to be stared at by now in this castle. I can say I am very glad that I have met you.”  Folding his arms over his chest he raised his brows a little when he was told that he was the second person to hold that theory. 

“Oh? Who was the first? Maybe I should work with them.” Rubbing his chin as Kronos shared his thoughts on what he thought would paint a beautiful image. Nodding a little. “Yes, I suppose that would be rather nice, perhaps in an open field? A backdrop of the woods. Though I don’t think nudity in itself is beautiful. I also enjoy photographing the process of getting naked. So very often my subjects start out fully clothed and keep taking pictures as they slowly strip until they’re left in nothing.” Grinning before laughing a little. “Though I must admit, in my old age imagination of what others look naked has gotten awfully boring for me.”

“I’m…or, I guess I was, owned by Kol, so that’s how I placed it,” Manny explained with a small smile. His recent unclaiming again still left a bit of a sore spot. Perhaps a nice distraction like Reginald would help him forget about it for a little while. He chuckled softly at the other man’s flattery. “I’m surprised someone as old as you would know what a snack means in this day and age,” he teased. “If you’re ready, I’m good to go right now.”

Nodding this one was recently unclaimed. Reg felt sorry for the one that got to taste the luxuries of being claimed just to be sent back to the undercroft. It was a harsh reality, and very stark contrast in ways of living unless of course, you had a cruel master.  Laughing a little when the other said that he was surprised someone as old as he would know what snack meant. “I may be old, but I like to think I’m a very modern being. I mean why be immortal and than not enjoy the times you’re living in? The internet, all the new cameras that have been built, make my hobbies so much easier.” Nodding when he said if he was ready then he was good to go. Wrapping a hand around the other’s waist. “Then let me lead the way, I promise you won’t regret it.”

“An interesting predicament.” Kronos teased with a smile but he shook his head as he understood where he was coming from. “Regardless what others think, if you care at all for an opinion of a guard, I enjoy your name. If you will allow it, I would be honored to call you by it.” His smile remained but he looked away a moment as he gathered the brushes he had gotten out earlier.  “Photography? What a curious pass time. What is it you enjoy taking pictures of?” He asked but paused as he heard his question. “Me?” He looked back at Reginald and tilted his head. “Why ever would you want to take a picture of me?”

Smiling as Kronos mentioned it being an honor to call him by his full name. “Not many use the full Reginald if you want you can call me Reg. It’s far shorter, and takes so much less work to get through then my full name.” Watching as the guard picked up the brushes that he had been using, he chewed on his bottom lip a little looking over the guard’s features. He was very pretty indeed, and he would be a very nice addition to the vampire’s gallery. 

“Lots of things. Mostly people and architecture. Though when I photograph people I won’t lie, I enjoy it more when they’re naked. Sometimes doing casual things, sometimes fucking or being fucked. I think the naked form and the act of intimate moments are art in themselves.” Nodding, “Yes, you. You’re very pretty, Kronos.” Throwing a wink at the guard, “I am certain you look better with less clothing on.”

He smiled when they other waved off his apology. Usually he felt better when they did. The elemental didn’t usually hesitate too often for he liked to think that nothing really bothered him, however there were times, recent times, that he’d been nervous more often than not. Honestly, he wasn’t yet sure why. “Fake?” He asked with a chuckle, “Who am I to judge a name. The reference is always the titan or the god of time which I find a bit ironic. If I were a titan or a god, I would not be in this predicament. If I had the power to control time, I would know my given name.” He chuckled and pulled away from the horse. “Is there something you needed out here? Or did your feet simply wonder like mine?”

“Yes, fake, though aren’t all names fake if you really think about it? We pick something to call ourself and at any moment if we so have the whim to, we can change it. Reginald is the name I chose because at the time of it’s choosing it was a common name amongst the humans of England. Now though it does seem a bit outdated, but I enjoy it.” Raising a brow when Kronos said that if he could control time he’d be able to go back and discover his given name. “So we do have that in common, it has been so long I forgot my original name. Another reason why though, I cling to the name Reginald.” 

Shaking his head when he was asked if there was anything he needed out there, “No..no.” Lifting his camera a little, “I was coming out here to take photographs, something I do in my spare time is photograph things.” Looking over the other, he was very attractive though many in the castle were. “Perhaps it was fates intention you be my muse tonight and that is why we have met tonight?”

“I don’t feel like it was too kind. I feel like it is all deserved.” Cullen said leaning into the handsome vampire and brushing fingertips over the master’s bare chest. “Oh I think we both know who is going to be naked first.” he said with a little chuckle, tilting his face into the hand that brushed his cheek. “Hmm well now now the next book, ah- “A classic, ‘Things Fall Apart’, have you read that one?” 

Grinning a little at Cullen as he was told that he felt the descriptives were deserved. “Part of me is curious if you’re just trying to butter me up to better get into my pants. Maybe a hope of me letting you beat me?” Feeling as the hand touched him, he looked down at it before looking back up at the other. “Do we? I didn’t know you could see into the future Cullen.” Shaking his head as he moved to remove his own shoes. “I have not read that one.”

“Apologies, sir. I was not aware anyone would come down here. I usually stop by to make sure there is enough water and hay in their stalls before I head back to my duties. Tonight I simply had more time to spare.” He offered an explanation when it wasn’t asked. At the offered hand, Kronos hesitated before he reached and shook it. “Beautiful name.” He admitted but there was something in his eyes that evident of shock. It was gone when Kronos’ hand was once more at his side. “Do not feel bad, sir. If you do not recognize me, I would say I am doing well at my job.” He smiled back and tilted his head. “My name is Kronos. It is a pleasure to meet you.”

Waving his hand a little when the other began to apologize for being down there. Reg shook his head and smiled a little. “No, no it’s fine. We all have a right to be down here. And I am sure that the horses appreciate you coming down here to make sure that they have enough water. I doubt beyond the stable keeper many here would care about such a thing.” 

Reg noted the hesitation before his hand was taken, he smiled a little more when he was told it was a beautiful name, before chuckling a little. “Is it? Many often tell me it sounds fake. A guard then? Yes, I suppose the guards like to merge into the background. The less they're noticed the better, though I enjoy getting to know everyone or as many as I can in the castle. Kronos?” Chuckling again a little. “Like the titan? I do hope if you’ve had any, you don’t swallow your children whole. It’s a good name though, not one I hear often.”

Never able to rest well, Kronos was up once more wondering the castle in the areas he was allowed. Perhaps he should’ve taken an extra shift for he’d needed to gain good graces back with Kristofer, but he decided against it for the reason of not wanting a repeat of what happened. He would work his shift when told but the more he could stay away from the desire and empathy to help the slaves, the better off he’d be. Somehow the elemental made his way to the stables. Horses were interesting creatures, always afraid for some reason. So when he showed up to see them relaxed, he wasn’t able to help himself from chuckling. Hands pushed into his pockets, he walked up to a black stallion and started to touch his head when he felt the jerk and saw the fear. Someone else had showed up. “I didn’t think anyone would be up at this hour.”

The castle at night was always when it was at it’s most relaxing and best for Reginald to walk around with his polaroid camera and just take pictures of the castle, or the nature around it, tonight though he had decided and settled on the stables. Making his way down to them, he soon found that someone else was down in the stables within him, smiling a little at the other. Chuckling a little before he spoke to the other being. 

“Well, I am a vampire, and you know vampires are at their best when it’s pitch blackout. Considering the whole sun thing.” Walking closer to the other, he rose a brow. “I don’t recognize you, sorry about that.” Offering a hand, “Reginald.” 

[reginald-krovs]

Have you ever liked someone you didn’t expect to?

"Yes, I have. I have found that over life we are often attracted to people we don't expect to find ourselves attracted to."

[reginald-krovs]

Do you get jealous easily?

“I hate to admit it, but yes. I can get very possessive of someone, and so, in turn, I can get very jealous, very easily.”  

[reginald-krovs]

Do you think someone has feelings for you?

“Perhaps. This is obviously something I cannot know for sure. If they do then they are more than welcome to come forward and admit it. I will more than likely not reject them.”
