Lightwood

"And I'm Vai." Just in case the other had not said his name. He was not only pretending that he was pure human, but he was also pretending he knew nothing whatsoever of the supernatural. It seemed like the guy was annoyed at him when it should be the reverse. Thing was, he didn't always say the smartest things when nervous...like now "Actually as long as I leave here I'm good. You seem like a nice guy, but this could be just a thing and then I find out you are a serial killer like in the movies. I should just leave you to your...shooting and I'll be on my way.

Even when he tried offering to make it up to him for his mistake, this guy still thought up the worst scenarios about him that could happen. Yep. It was best end this and let him go. At the very least, Vai said that he seemed like a nice guy. That was something positive said towards him, right? Agron just let out a sigh before responding. "Yeah, ok. Have a nice day." He simply said before turning around and walking forward in that direction. This clearly hadn't been the distraction that Agron had needed. He was going to have to find it elsewhere.

"He would probably declare it a tie, knowing him." Castor said with a shrug. It may sound like a compliment, but he wanted to win against Cameron no matter what. It mattered to him. In a way it was his way to stay relevant in Sam's life. He was really afraid of that.

"Hmm...Maybe." Agron said with a shrug. It wasn't like he knew either Castor or Cameron much, and especially how Sam was like with either brother to really make an assumption on how bias Sam would really be. However, Agron had multiple of his own, so it didn't take long for him to come to a realization. "Well, in any case, I'm sure he'd want to be included in some way. You know, the three of you getting to spend time together. So even if not the referee, he probably should be given some kind of role in this "best brother" wrestling match."

Nasir chuckled. "Agron, if you really think you smell bad, you don't want to know how bad your dirty clothes smell when we do laundry, so I have smelled worse." Plus, the scent that bothered him the most was Agron's sadness. It was quite potent. He sat down right next to his brother. "I have a feeling, though...that this is not just about uncle Lancelot, right? You were fine, and then as soon as I said it it was like you turned another switch.

Yeah, even Nasir teasing him didn't help lighten the mood. At least for Agron. Then his older brother asked something that he hadn't expected. Was he that obvious? Apparently so with what Nasir pointed out next. He wasn't ready just yet to tell him, and there was no doubt his scent was giving that away right now. "Ok. Join me or don't. It's up to you, but I really do need to shower now." He leaned over to kiss his brother's cheek before standing up. "That's not just because of the smell. I just don't want to have this conversation with you like...this." He told him before walking over to the bathroom and went inside. Agron hoped that the warm water would help relax him and just get him in a better mood to discuss things with Nasir.

"Yes we do! This will help you be less of a prude too you know." Samael had said before it all went to this emotional roller coaster that he was having with his brother. He had not spoken about Dante in years, not even to Fergus. He actually didn't know how to approach the conversation about him considering his distaste for hunters. Dante was a big part of him, a big part of his past. He had meant too much to forget and some nights he still haunted him

Yep, the fun, sexy topics were now put on hold as they continued into the more serious conversation. Well, more serious as in emotional. Becoming less of a prude was also serious, but in a different way. Anyway, Sam assuring him he had done nothing wrong was nice. Sam for a couple of other things said after that. It all made him slightly smile, which only grew after receiving a cheek kiss of his own. However, it dropped once Sam said that he might not like this new guy, though only pulled back from the hug after letting him finish speaking. "Don't know what would make me not like him, but if that's what you want, I'm good with waiting on meeting him for when you're ready for me to do so."

"Oh..." That sucks. What other things he could give him. "I could get you in and you can watch me work? I put on a good show. I would give you a private one, but this is awkward enough." And it was. Plus he didn't know if the other had a pool. What if he even was a hunter and was being foolish? "Excuse me for forgetting, did you say your name? I kinda pissed my pants back there so I don't remember if I even told you my name."

"Uh, yeah. It's Agron." He told him. Ok, so this dude clearly wasn't over the whole 'accidently getting shot at' thing. Vai not only kept throwing out things to offer him for some reason, but he forgot something they just did like a minute ago. It was understandable, especially if Vai had bad experiences with hunters in the past, but really hoped he could ease any of his worries and relax his mind as they continued speaking, which he attempted with the next thing he said. "Hey, look. You don't owe me anything. Out of the two of us, I should be the one making it up to you. I'm the one that almost shot you. Is there anything I can do for you here?"

"Because as our brother he wouldn't be the best to give an impartial decision." He explained and he did not feel any better when Agron confessed Sam might try the same thing on him. He knew he meant well, but that wasn't the issue. The issue was that he it could be complicated and embarrassing. However, it seemed Castor and Agron had several things in common when it came to Sam. He was very happy that his brother was surrounded by people who love and care about him. By the way Agron was reacting, it seemed Sam was quite helpful to Agron as well.

"Ah. Fair point." He said. While it made sense to exclude Sam, Agron hoped that Castor's suggestion to make him to referee instead wasn't a serious one. He wasn't really sure if he wanted to get involved in that or not. At the very least, Agron knew that he definitely didn't want that to be his first meeting with Cam. That should be something much more special, just like his first meeting with Castor should have been. Unfortunately this is meeting he got with him for their first: them randomly running into each after Agron almost accidently seriously hurting or killed him... It's a good thing they've moved on from that and were making this a better first meeting... Well reasonably better all things considering.

Nasir expected anger, but he did not expect Agron to be this intense. He had to leave his uncle because of how worried he was about his brother. He drove as fast as possible - without breaking the law. He opened the door and wore a small smile for his brother. He debated whether to bring their uncle with him, pull the bandage off now, but at he end of the end of the day, he knew his brother knew enough. He knew if he was reacting like this, Uncle Lancelot being here would just make matters worse. "Want me to make you something to eat or do you want to talk right away?"

When Nasir got home, Agron immediately got up off the couch and turned to face his brother. He then raised a brow at the question asked. "Well, I mean, we can eat first if you're hungry, but I expected to immediately get into talking. Not just because we really need to talk but...I also really need to shower, as I'm sure you can smell from where standing." He said before chuckling weakly, trying to make a joke to at least somewhat lighten the mood. However, with how serious this entire conversation was going to get with all of the things they could be talking about here, it wasn't really a great attempt at doing that.

"Then you need to change that. Next project for you is how to turn Wyatt on with swim trunks." Samael chuckled and of course it may turned him on too, but he knew how to control it. What he didn't exactly was controlling was the sudden awkward situation about Fergus. Fergus was older first of all and had a granddaughter that he was raising though it was because his daughter passed away soon after giving birth. He knew from Nasir how judgmental Agron had been about age, so he feared that, but in reality the main reason why he had kept it quiet was something even more complicated, something he was comfortable revealing. He did appreciate the approach though and he would reveal the age and child thing later when maybe after Agron meets him. Cameron was fine with it, but he was always open-minded about everything; He also dated Peter so that helped.

Of course Sam was actually now pushing for Agron to turn Wyatt on with swim trunks. This didn't surprise Agron as he simply shook his head. "Come on, Sam. Yes, I'm trying to be...less of a prude now and I'm, you know, having you help me with that. However, you really think I need to have Wyatt get...turned on when I'm in swim trunks? There are probably other, more fitting, ways I can do that." He said. Sam was a much more sexual person than he was, and Agron was fine with that. It's why he wanted his guidance, advice and suggestions, or even to just have conversations with him about this stuff in order to hopefully overcome his prudish. Especially since not only did Agron want to have sex to become a more active part of his life with Wyatt, they both agreed to it. Even so, he wasn't trying to turn everything with him into an opportunity to get his fiancé lusting for him. He was fine with swim trunks just being used as they're intended.

He didn't understand how the other didn't understand how dangerous he looked, but he decided to just let it go. Going back and forward was not going to help. The less he used his powers the better, though he easily could have. "Yeah sure. I'll wait." And he was going to because running away could make matters worse. Instead, he just started to gather his things. Thankfully nothing wrong, but then he saw something that he might use as a peace gift. "Hey." He said when Agron came back. "Here is a discount. First two drinks are free. I work in this bar as an underwater artist."

By the time Agron returned, he had the strap of a closed duffel bag hung on his shoulder. Everything, including his crossbow arrows, were in it. Now not only should it ease Vai's worries, at least Agron hoped, but also now both of his hands were freed up. Although not for the discount he was suddenly being given as he awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck "That's nice of you but, uh, sorry. It'd be wasted giving that to me. I don't drink." Well, more so he had stopped drinking. Saying that though would either cause assumptions or questions being asked. Neither of which Agron welcomed right now. He didn't want to get into it by explaining something so personal to a guy he just met.

"No fair...." Wyatt looked at the other with a pout when he the choice was defaulted back to him. Putting his things on the table he looked down at the pairings and started to read through them. "Fine... Savoury first, since dessert will usually be served after mains." Wyatt said pointing out the natural order and looking around to have someone start getting their plates out

Agron chuckled. "It is. Don't worry. It'll be my turn later." He assured him. When Wyatt made his decision, Agron's smile grew before he leaned down and pecked him on the lips. "See? Food is more your specialty, babe. It's perfect to have you be the one to make decisions on it." He told him before finally moving over to his own chair, though he paused right before sitting down due to being surprised by Wyatt's question, his eyes widening.

"Maybe you should be the ref. My brother won't be able to do it." He knew he could lose, but it was never a good idea to underestimate anybody. "You do not. He has even tried to hook me up with other people." One person specifically that he has a crush on. He really didn't want his brother to keep on trying. It would be too embarrassing.

"Really? Why can't he?" He asked. Sam would make the most sense to ref that, so it confused him why Castor said that. Well he got a response to the Sam being open comment, and it was one he didn't expect. "Oh wow. That...sure does sound like something would do." He chuckled. "Hell, if I wasn't already taken, I'm sure he'd try to set me up with someone." Maybe even with himself. They both have admitted in the past to finding each other attractive. Even so, it was good that unlike Theo, Sam actually respected his relationship with Wyatt, enough to where he not only was supportive of it but also helpful with advice. Particularly when it came to sex and ways to make Agron be attractive for Wyatt. Especially attractive enough to turn his fiancé on.

"Oh come on. Wyatt has to find you very sexy. Are you going to tell me he doesn't?" He asked him. With time Agron grew more comfortable. Something he loved about Agron is that he never ran away. Nasir was like that too. They could blush, fluster, stutter and ramble but they would never run away. Their friendship would probably not last otherwise. What surprised him was Agron's reaction. He didn't expect him to be so bombastic about it. It made him feel a little embarrassed. He scratched the back of his neck, ran a hand through his hair, even as Agron splashed water at him. He just tried to do the same with his legs. "Well there is a reason why I haven't said anything." He said and he was going to blurt out the reason until Agron made such a statement. His eyes went wide. "What? No It is not-Wait, what do you mean by that?" He asked, but he knew. He so knew. He and Danny had very good chemistry. Attraction was there. Feelings may be there too and in many ways he did want to date him. He thought about it so many times but something always stopped him. Something always made him look away. "It is not Danny, but I can maybe...see why you would think that?" He asked himself more than Agron.

"What? Of course not! I'm just saying that seeing me in normal swim trunks like this doesn't...get that kind of reaction from him. Other things, you know...turn him on." He told him. Man, if he was already able to say those words, Agron wondered how he'd do now when they really get into talking about sexual stuff. Especially when he'd tell Sam that he finally bottomed for the first time. After their last discussion about subject with admitting to being curious about trying it, Agron was sure his brother would want to know how that went. Thankfully right now he had time to ease into it as the current conversation went further into Sam's new man. His sudden awkward embarrassed behavior about this was unexpected, making Agron tilt his head in slight confusion, though only briefly as he got splashed back on a bit, which made him laugh as he glanced away. "Oh really? Can't wait to hear the excuse for this." He teased in a joking manner. He trusted that whatever reason Sam had to keep this from him was a good one.

Because that didn't sound suspicious at all. He finally put his hands down. "It is not everyday you find someone with a crossbow shooting in the woods so I can't be blame ya know? And the arrow almost hit me. I got scared." He picked his bag up and started to collect a few things that had fallen. He had no choice but to trust that the guy was not here to kill him...yet. "Can we start over? That should help to make this less awkward right? I'm Vai."

Ok, so maybe this wasn't that much better than dealing with Ennis shit. From one guy treating him like an awful person to possibly another. Man, at this point Agron was probably going to need to hang out with his brothers after this, Sam including, just so he didn't feel like such a piece of shit. "...I know, and I said I was sorry...which I still am." He said in an awkward tone before looking around. Agron decided to do that rather than help him pick up his stuff as he thought that might scare him more. Who knows what this guy might think of that action. Like maybe it would be assumed that he was using that as an opportunity to get close enough to him to stab him with his arrow or something? Well that didn't matter as thankfully this guy, who he now knew his name was Vai, offered to start over. "Uh, sure. I'd like that. I'm Agron." He paused to glance at his cross bow. "Hold on. Let me go get my things and put this away. It shouldn't take long." He told him before turning around in order to start walking back to where his things were.

"Maybe." Wyatt smiled at the other while they walked in. "I can't make all the decisions on my own." He said taking the other's hand to lead Agron into the restaurant. Luckily Wyatt had managed to get a tasting appointment before the restaurant was open for the day which meant they had the whole place to themselves.

Agron chuckled and shook his head at Wyatt's response. "No. I suppose you can't." He said before he allowed him to take his hand again and begin guiding him. With this being where Wyatt worked, it made sense to Agron to let him take the lead for this. Plus it was just a nice change of pace. Usually Agron had to be the one to lead things. He was interested to see how his fiancé would do in this role. Especially since he himself didn't know what to expect here.

Nasir: You are right, we haven't, and you may want to after I tell you this.

-After hesitating for a few minutes-

Nasir: That was hours ago. You could be sad now.

Agron: I just got home after working out.
