Locked to Grimsley
[ Welcome home, Grimsley! Welcome to your room filled with balloons. All different colors and sizes. Some of then even have hearts and winky faces drawn on them in marker. Have fun de-ballooning your room!

On his bed, once Grimsley manages to get that far, is a black-backed Joker card. On the front, it says "Gotcha!" accompanied by a ;* face.

And if he feels like investigating, he might notice Niou lounging against a fence across the street. ]





Locked to Firo
[ He's spent the better part of his day waiting for the right moment to do this.

He walks by Firo, shaking his umbrella in frustration. ]

Dammit. [ Casting a worried glance at the sky. Which... happens to be nice and blue, but whatever.

He pauses and looks at Firo critically. ] Hey you. Wanna do me a favor?





Locked to Kyouko
[ Upon waking up, Kyouko will find her entire room filled with cups. Bunches of them. There's hardly any room between each one, and they're covering her entire floor. Each cup is filled most of the way up with water.

On her bedside table is a black-backed Joker card that has "Gotcha!" scrawled across the front in black marker, along with a ;* face!

Once she gets out of her room, she might notice Niou lurking across the street. ]

[[ooc: if you decided you wanted to handwave Kyouko's and Heather's, then just ignore this! ^^; ]]





Locked to Heather
[ This one is a personal favorite of his.

When Heather opens her locker, she'll see herself! There's a very simple mirror hanging there. And tucked behind a corner of it is a black-backed Joker card. It has "Gotcha!" scrawled across the front, accompanied by a ;* face.

Niou is lurking just a ways down the hall, waiting to see how this'll play out. ]





Locked to Belphegor
[ Now it's Niou's turn to come through the window!

This kid is doing a barrel roll through Bel's room at six o'clock in the morning. Probably making a fair bit of noise, too.

Also probably not the best thing to do, considering Bel's an assassin and all. Either Niou doesn't value his life at all, or he has a pretty large amount of trust in Bel not to kill him! ]

Comments

[mathisradical]

[ They're the worst. >| ]

Not even if I beg? [ He might even do it. ]

[princecreepshow]

[ He pouts. ] No. [ It might help though. ]

[mathisradical]

Not even if I got on my knees to do it? [ Because that sounds totally wholesome. ]

[princecreepshow]

Why do you want me to wear this outside anyway? [ Why yes he's avoiding the question. ]

[mathisradical]

[ Shrug. ] Why do I ever want to do anything? 'Cos I'm bored.

[ And it'd be cute. And fun. And Niou likes showing off. But he's not saying those ones out loud. ]

[princecreepshow]

Still. This, [ He touch the collar. ] stays in this room.

[ Just 'bored' isn't a good enough reason though, Niou. ]

[mathisradical]

What if I kissed you?

[ Not that he thinks the promises of kisses is going to get him a 'yes', but at least it's a cover up for the real reason he wants to kiss him. 'Because I want to' reveals too much, in his opinion. ]

[princecreepshow]

[ Trapping him here, Niou. While he do want to kiss him, it would basically be the same for him as it would be for Niou if him just said he wanted to kiss Bel just because he wants to. ]

........

[mathisradical]

[ Niou just raises an eyebrow. If he doesn't get an answer, he'll probably do it anyway. ]

[princecreepshow]

[ Don't raise your eyebrow at him! ]

...It wouldn't make a difference.

[ Liar. ]

[mathisradical]

No?

[ He's not sure he's quiet convinced. In the end, he's pretty sure that if Bel says no, kissing him won't get him to say yes, he'll do it anyway. Which... kind of defeats his purpose of not making his crush obvious.

Maybe he'll be able to pass it off as teenage hormones, anyway. ]

[princecreepshow]

No.

[ Well they've kissed a lot before this, so it doesn't make it that obvious. Though Bel's thinking the same things. Like --will Niou notice the difference now that he himself knows? ]

[mathisradical]

[ The difference between then and now is that there are actual feelings behind these kisses. And what if that's all it takes for Bel to notice? The first time they kissed, Bel realized Niou was a guy. Could it really be that easy?

He moves to reach out towards Bel, then stops himself partway. Does he really want to do this? ]

[princecreepshow]

[ Though to hesitate about this is sort of saying things too, isn't it? They haven't exactly hesitated before. Does that mean that it'll show no matter what they do? ]

[mathisradical]

[ Niou's beginning to realize that, too. At this point, he's come to the conclusion that he really only has one option. Backing out would make it clear that something's wrong. And even if Bel didn't comment on it, it'd still be there. Going through with the kiss might reveal something, too. But maybe there's less of a chance of that happening.

So he finishes his action. He steps forward, threads his free hand, the one not holding the leash, through Bel's hair, and kisses him. ]

[princecreepshow]

[ That's probably the best alternative here. Though it's all pretty insane.

He leans his head to a better kissing-angle. ]

[mathisradical]

[ The entire situation is confusing, and Niou hates confusing.

However, after the initial 'this-might-lead-to-a-conversation-I-don't-want-to-have' feeling, he's pretty cool with all this. He wraps his hand around the length of the leash a couple of times so it's more taut, but not uncomfortable. ]

[princecreepshow]

[ Well Bel's not going to bring it up, so that's a conversation he would have to start himself.

With one hand still supporting himself on the mattress, he lets his other go up to Niou's neck. ]

[mathisradical]

[ Then it's a conversation that's not gonna happen yet! And Niou's way okay with that.

Niou kneels on the bed so he's not bending down quite as much. ]

[princecreepshow]

[ He fiddles a bit with Niou's rattail, before taking hold of his hair. ]

[mathisradical]

[ Niou lets go of the leash to slip his fingers up the back of Bel's shirt.

[princecreepshow]

[ Bel's other arm also wraps around Niou's neck, pulling Niou a bit further down towards him. ]

[mathisradical]

[ That makes Niou take his hand from Bel's hair to brace it on the bed so he doesn't topple over. Because that wouldn't be any fun. ]

[princecreepshow]

[ No, maybe it wouldn't. Niou's new position isn't causing Bel any trouble though. ]

[mathisradical]

[ Niou nips at Bel's lip, not hard, then runs his tongue over the spot. ]
