Lance was feeling a little depressed. For the past few days he had been bored out of his mind and seen countless arguments. He needed someone to talk to. Actually he needed more then that. he needed a mate. He was reaching the age when that became a concern and he was yearning for someone to share his life."But who. There's no one here that can be a possible mate for me. I mean not that I can think of." It was true. No one here was a compatible mate for him. He was gay in fact. He knew of another gay couple here. Actually two of them so he knew that he would be accepted but no one would want to be with him. To be honest, no one actually knew he was gay. he had never thought to tell anybody. It never crossed his mind.'Well I guess everyone will find out at their own time. Just hope someone will find out and feel about me." He began to imagine being caressed in a set of arms. The warmth and strength felt good. he needed that now but he didn't know who from. He walked out of his home and sat by the training grounds to ponder this subject and await for anyone to pass by and chat to.
OCC: Thank god you edited it. I was having a hard time responding.
Rain hadn't left Anathema just yet. He missed his old home and wanted someone to talk to. After the Sammi issue he had been feeling low. He wandered around Anathema in search of someone to talk to and ended up on the training grounds he used to go to to practice his archery. He walked to where he used to stand and pulled back and imaginary bow and shot an imaginary arrow.
He had been more then willing to come back to Anathema with Sam but she wanted to separate. "Why is it so hard for me to keep the ones I love in my life? I... just want someone to love and to be loved in return," he said out loud. Shiloh is keeping me from love. She haunts me he thought as he kicked up dirt and let his tail droop.
"He's with me. I met him at the borders earlier and I was showing him around." Lance didn't want to have a mean tone with this guy sine he came within seconds of killing his best-friend for telling him a joke."Well i hoped I would never have to talk to him but it looks like I'm stuck defending Rain for my first conversation." He looked back at rain and gave a smirk. He hasn't even been here a day and has been caught trespassing had been yelled at by Mido. He just couldn't seem to catch any luck. Lance turned back towards Alaki."Sir, If it helps him I will take any blame for him being here. He's my guest or should I say he's a little more then that." He tried to sound as proper to say that Rain was his "partner" but he knew that Alaki knew what he meant.
Lance walked into the storage room and appeared with the sword he had used just days before when he learned how to fight." If you don't mind I've been dying to ask. Do you mind teaching me some moves. I've heard that your the best there is here. It would be a great honer." He gave a nervous look at the storm black male and oped he didn't take it as a request to spar. Lance would get destroyed or even killed."Also, if it is allowed, may I give Rain a bow to practice with since shooting an imaginary bow doesn't help much." He turned towards Rain and gave a chuckle."I may be able to save you. Just give me a sec."
