“Hell is this?” Looked like a blanket. It.. was a blanket. What do you know. That wasn’t what he was paying whole much attention to currently however or why there was one on his bed as if appeared from thin air, delivery of the unknown. He definitely had no recollection of getting this, or seeing it in the morning when he dragged his sleep deprived ass up to get ready for classes.

Butterflies. Morpho peleides. By the supposed looks, and he’s– he’s not having some fucking emotion attempting to push into the surface here gods forbid, but it was a close call. Stepping closer he allowed hand to caress the fabric, frown marring features as he tried to figure out just who– mouth drew into a thin line, sparing a glance at the other bed currently unoccupied ( who the hell knew where his new roommate was ever ) he let out a ridiculed laugh. Honestly.. There has been precisely one person here who had asked, who actually listened, when topic was on his, ah, precious collection.

And if it wasn’t Ren then.. well. yet another gift he’s left without source of.

Either way, Denìtr fished his phone out and knelt down to pose next to the blanket with a fake crying expression, hand up in a fist for dramatic effect, snapping the picture when he deemed the shot lined right.

Kai had been pretty darn mortified whenever he heard his dare. He had to sing….? That was embarrassing!! But…. He didn’t want to risk the itchy undies thing. Even if he did forget about undies sometimes, it was only every once in a while, totally not enough to risk itchy ones. So he went off and did his thing, thankful that he knew how to play the guitar thanks to music class, and composed his first ever song. It was a sweet melody, and true to the dare he did the lyrics in Korean with his questionable vocal… skills, the guitar behind it sounding sweet and perky.

“When fire met snow,It created a bond that’s stronger ice.An unlikely bond,That would be hard to surpass.

But here it is, and here you are.And I know there you’ll stay no matter how far,How far I fall or how far I go,I know you’ll pull me back, lead me home.

And while at one time, snow struck a fear,Now I see it and smile, knowing you’re near.It reminds me of the moon on your face, the stars in your eyes,And it makes my heart warm to know you’re by my side.

So thank you, Renny, for everything you do,For smiling and loving and being you.I hope that fate shines on you and us forever,Though even forever is not long enough, it’s true.

Ren, my Ren… I love you!”

This was what he recorded, and as he handed it over to Ren for judgment he promptly buried his face in his hands, hair already up in flames. “Press play…. Don’t laugh at me…!” He was going to die, seriously. “I don’t know how to write songs, I’ve never written any songs before, so you can’t laugh okay?!”

That soft, delicate gasp lingered longer than Ren had, like a snowflake in eerily still air. Time seemed as frozen as the atmosphere around them had been before the snow elf had slipped, gravity taking hold of him and sending him over the edge of the roof. Kai’s heart froze in his chest as well. And while it seemed like it took an eternity for it to register – for him to move or react – for him to realize that Ren could quite possibly be falling to his death - in reality it was a small fraction of a second before he was moving, terror filling him in a way he wasn’t sure he had felt before, in any of his lives.

“REN!!” This scream was also unlike anything he had let out before, cutting through the air before he threw himself off the roof without a thought. He HAD to catch Ren. Never in his life had he wanted to live more, if just so Ren could. And maybe, this was true bravery; as scary as it was to live, even moreso than dying for him, he wanted to so badly, just for his friend.

But for a terrifying moment, he thought he wouldn’t get the chance. That life would deal him one last, cruel blow and give him the thing he’d wanted so desperately just minutes before. Because while he willed his wings to go, they didn’t react. The light misting he’d gotten had been enough to make his fire sluggish, dim, and his wings took a lot of firepower. His friend would die and it would be all his fault…

But NO! He was not going to let that happen! He was not that wet, he HAD to save him! With one massive effort, and a furious roar, they finally erupted and he was able to angle himself and catch Ren in his arms, wrapping him up tight and beginning to furiously flap his wings, trying to slow their out of control descent.

However, they were so close to the ground by now that a full stop wasn’t possible. They were slowed, but not enough to safely land and so at the last moment he flipped around, hitting the ground hard enough that the wind was knocked out of him and he was stunned for a moment, but fine. And even more important, the boy held tight in his arms was fine as well, his descent slowed enough to cause no serious injury, especially when the fall was cushioned by him. Just as it should be.

As he trudged along, soaked himself and with an equally soaked phoenix resting on his back, Ren had to smile. He was finally getting a chance to pay Kai back for all the times the phoenix had helped him. Ren did feel bad that it was because the other had been caught in the rain, something that he was innately weak to, but at least he could help. And at least he had been around and able to help. The elf silently thanked whoever it was that was in charge of luck. Especially his own. “How can you possibly be cozy right now?” The pounding rain nearly drowned out his question, but he hoped that Kai had heard him anyway.
