Ganymede, the young Trojan prince whom Zeus abducted to be his cupbearer, holds a hoop and a rooster; the latter was often given by an erastes (older lover) to his eromenos (younger beloved).  Side A of an Attic red-figure bell-krater, attributed to the Berlin Painter; ca. 500-490 BCE.  Now in the Louvre.

"As if I would!" The Piscean replied almost instantly at Dégel’s words whilst furrowing his eyebrows - clearly offended by the Aquarian’s cogitation - and glanced elsewhere with a small frown afterwards. Tch, as if Albafica out of all people would even think of something… else in the middle of such a bothersome event. The only thoughts which he had in his mind wandered over the possibility of being able to leave this ridiculously cramped space.

His expressions relaxed at Dégel’s suggestion and he found himself agreeing with, after all. He was right, and besides, the Aquarian’s presence didn’t bother him - the fact they were obligated to be physically this close did -, and Albafica knew Dégel wanted to leave as much as he did since the situation itself was too awkward and… uncomfortable for both of them. “I apologize. You’re right.” The Piscean replied in a low murmur. Then, after a brief while in silence, he parted his lips to speak again, “Do you have any idea of what we could do?” Maybe the question was pointless, but it was worth the try. The silence in such a situation only made things worse, so listening to Dégel’s voice could, perhaps, be a good distraction and help Albafica think of a solution for the two of them as well.

"If only we had a little light, maybe we could try breaking the latch from the inside. If that does not sort any solution to our situation… well then, I am afraid we might be victims of a curse."

Hoje é aniversário do meu deviantART!! AHAHAH, 5 anos dessa conta, nem acredito que já passou tanto tempo.

“Over your lower back? I-I am sorry, is just– I do not know where else to put them, for it is too cramped here…”

Yet, he did understand that this time it was harder to prevent this from happening due to the lack of proper space to even shift a finger, so once again he decided to look over it and focus on what truly mattered; a way of leaving this cramped place as quickly as possible.

"… I am very sorry. For what happened days ago and for now."

“I really hope you are joking, Manigoldo. I really do." The aquarius sighed long, arms wrapped around the Cancer’s waist, awaiting for someone–anyone who could unlock the door for them.

“Do I look the type who jokes?" He snorted as his teeth clattering. His arms were wrapped around the Aquarian. He could pull away, but he couldn’t since they were already touching. With the little space they had, their little closet was already an ice box! At least to Manigoldo…

"Sometimes… I cannot tell if you are speaking the truth or just playing tricks on me." It wasn't like they were there by choice anyway. But at the other hand, he was glad it was one of his acquaintances and not a foe or, worst yet, a specter. "Is it, by any chance, too cold for you here? My apologizes if it is making you feel uncomfortable…"

"And who doesn’t?” he joked at first, then chuckled under his breath. He brushed a lock of hair aside then sighed heavily, but still with a soft smile on his lips. “Aah, of course. There are some people who don’t…”

"How pretentious of you…" He jokes, lightly. The comment made after the first confirms his friend is nothing like that "Of course there will always be people who dislikes us. The thing is, to know and stick to the ones who truly support us. Don't you think so?"

"As if I would!" The Piscean replied almost instantly at Dégel’s words whilst furrowing his eyebrows - clearly offended by the Aquarian’s cogitation - and glanced elsewhere with a small frown afterwards. Tch, as if Albafica out of all people would even think of something… else in the middle of such a bothersome event. The only thoughts which he had in his mind wandered over the possibility of being able to leave this ridiculously cramped space.

"Is… alright. I understand your discomfort but, for now, as we stay locked up here, I think it would be better if we tried to get along better."
