[ For some reason, his heart rate was skyrocketing. And while he's hardly tired? He's panting. As if it's taking all of his willpower not to just start mauling the one who got a little too close and comfortable with a wild animal. The werewolf. The human behind it. The bristling fur and rumbling growl in his throat when Aether steals away a kiss on the lips. Sweet. Lingering. Enough to make his eyes widen and his hold on the vampiric blond wane a little. But he's effectively got the man hoisted against the wall like this...their bodies radiating a mix of hot and cold between Cloud's burning form and Aether's temporary 'undead' state.
Only for the blond to tear himself back, wetting his lips as he struggles to find the right words. Something's happened to him... Was Aether even hurt? Those eyes were unsettling, and the point of fangs tells him everything he needs to know. They've both been changed by this moonless night. But if there's one thing that he refuses to do...
He can't hurt Aether. Not just for their friendship. But if Ayaka ever learnt one of her best friends was assaulted by him. If Lumine learnt that her brother was hurt. Which lends to him holding Aether tighter. Those eyes of his, mismatched gold and azure, were like the live war in his mind that beckoned him to give in and become a monster. To throw it all away for being some weak 'human'. He's torn. Provoked. ]
