@kingofspiritsandflames liked for a flower crown.

          YOH MAKES HIS WAY TOWARDS           his elder brother with a kind smile adorning his face. He does not bear any ILL WILL           towards Hao, cannot bring himself to, and instead decides to EMBRACE THE TRUTH           that he has a sibling, albeit one that seeks to better the world through the means of           eradicating humanity. It’s not as though he overlooks that fact -- in fact, it's something           that he’s reminded constantly about -- but rather Yoh continues to HOLD HOPE that he           can open up Hao’s mind and eye about the matter despite the odds.

                         ❛ I made you something, ❜ he breathes, a flower crown held in both hands.           Perhaps it’s a semblance of CHILDHOOD IDEALS, or maybe he is acting on the           familial emotions that he’s never truly explored, but Yoh has prepared a hand-made           gift for his twin. Part of him does expect rejection from the shaman, but mostly he is           confident. It is, after all, just a circlet of flowers.

          THE GIFT IS HELD OUT BEFORE           him, far enough that it is easy for Hao to grab, if he so DESIRES, but not so far as to           hurt Yoh’s arms if he ends up holding it for a while.He wouldn’t mind holding it for so           long, but he’s never been that fond of PAIN, even the dull ache that seems to settle           in muscles when you use them too long. 

                          ❛ It’s fine if you don’t want it. I had some time on my hands, and I thought                                      I’d make some flower crowns. Have you ever made one before--? I...                                       I could show you how.  ❜

♙:Sharing a bed

He didn't know what Hao's motives were for sliding into the same bed Ren was using. All the other beds were taken, and he wasn't bound to just sleep on the floor. He inched his way to the farthest edge, and what made it all the more irritating that he could sense he was being laidback as ever behind him. Doing absolutely nothing but using his presence to annoy him, whether it was intentional or not. He blew a deep breath to calm his nerves down, the scowl still on his face as he tried to sleep.

Just pretend he's not there, just pretend he's not there... He tried telling himself, but it seemed to have worked the exact opposite. Ren only became more aware of the other's breathing, it was as if Hao was doing this on purpose to keep him aware of his damn presence!

Even more annoyed now, he sat up abruptly and shoved the covers aside, not far enough to disturb his rest. "I'm going out." He left the room, and hoped his 'and don't follow me' aura was strong enough to be felt. Perhaps if he waited long enough, he'll have the bed to himself again with no problems of sleeping peacefully. But, what are the chances for that with Hao doing whatever he liked?

Oh, right. I have to pay you guys back for that. I'll have to sacrifice one of my guardians then. I guess you'll do. Your soul will basically be in oblivion but that's an acceptable loss.

"Oh? I'm flattered that you think so highly of my value."

[argentshaman]

Yeah, I don't get discounts. I get my shit free. Your family is very kind to allow me free coffee. As expected of the people who will be serving me for eternity.

"You won't get any discounts from me. You still owe us for that Spirit you stole."

Let's just ignore the fact that he tried the exact same thing, shall we?

[argentshaman]

People usually laugh like that when they're feeling inferior and try to make a joke out of something. That's usually when someone is told off and they know they're wrong but they try to play it off as funny when deep down they're actually really embarrassed. In fact, it sounds a lot like my Patch descendant.

"Things like this are exactly why I don't give you family discount at our Patch stores."

[argentshaman]

Your hair is silky and smooth, and that's great, but mine is even silkier and even smoother and always will be, so your argument is automatically invalid.

"Cool story bro."

[scionoflorelei-a]

((Apologies to all I am RPing with at current... I had to go babysit my brother, and on top of it, I got a really nasty case of indigestion and it wasn't cause of Haribo Sugarless Gummi Bears.

...Ugh, I could barely move with that as it is, those damn things would have been a hell of a lot worse.

....Plus I've been addicted (again) to FFXIV.

If anyone's wondering, I have a lv50 Bard on Ultros and a lv37 White Mage on Balmung.

....Trying to let my stomach settle more before I play anything though.))

"I know your secret.”

"Ah... Er, well...."

Sweating nervously, he wasn't sure on how to respond. Hao, of all people, saying that statement so casually was enough to frighten him. Considering the fact that Hao is the most likely winner of the Shaman Fight, he'd expect the best out of the Patch Officials to serve him. Thalim has no choice but to oblige no matter who becomes King, even if it's someone he's afraid of. 

His wish to not fight was pretty clear even by just looking at him. In any given situation, he'd rather avoid violence in any possible way. If they were to reach his plant, Thalim would have to fight them to the best of his ability on holding them back for as long as he could. His spirits have the means to counter most of their attacks, as well as overwhelm them if he needed to. Even by protecting their King, his pacifist ways were still evident, but it wouldn't be all in vain. He... wouldn't be defeated without at least putting up a fight.

"I will do my utmost best."
