*...Seemingly randomly,Zero gets teleported to this place yet again*
H u h - :|. ...NOT AGAIN--
(ooc:Hypno Tiem :> whenever you wanna answer this)
*... shes in the mountains, near a small camp.*
*she hears a certain familiar distorted voice laughing..*
...!
:>!
*There we go. At least someone familiar.
She starts walking towards the voice*
Hypno?? :>
*... she ends up stepping on a vine, which wraps around her ankle and pulls her down..*
*the moment shes down, more vines begin coiling around her..*
*Zero screams,remembering how the vines trapped Guardian last time*
Nonono LET ME GO!
*She fights as hard as she can to escape*
*a certain stitched steve comes running, ripping through the vines with his sharp claws..*
"LET GO OF HER-"
!!!
HYPNO-!
*She grabs for him,trying to get fully free*
*he grabs her and pulls her away from the vines, stomping on them for good measure..*
"Zero-! Are you ok? Are you hurt O< ?"
*She immediately relaxes in his hold. Thankfully,she doesn't seem hurt.*
Yeah,yeah,I'm okay!! They just got me a few minutes ago- forgot I have to watch where I step here,,
*he gives her a big hug*
"Glad you're ok 0> Do you want me to carry you back to the camp 0] ?"
Oh- sure! As long as that's fine :>
Uh,I'm not your Zero,though-
"mhm, i know which one you are. I remember you." *.. he sounds smug-*
...O////o.
*Ah,fuck. Zero starts blushing*
O h ! I was hoping you didn't ////
"... soooo, you think my horns are 'gorgeous', huh?" *smug bastard </3*
*She hides her face in her hands,blushing harder*
I-well-! They are!!
"Well, thank you O3 " *he moves her hands so he can see her face and gently boops her nose*
*She giggles,though still flustered*
*he gets to the camp and sits beside the fire, still holding her*
Ah,very nice camp :]
*She makes no attempt to get away from him*
*he starts petting her head. Friend <3 *
*She happily allows this before attempting to pat his head*
*he smiles and lowers his head so she can reach easier*
*She pets him for a few moments before very cautiously laying a hand on his horns*
*he watches her curiously, but makes no move to stop her*
*She starts lightly scratching one*
*he lets out a slightly wheezy, distorted purr*
Doesn't hurt,right? I heard this feels good on horns-
"doesn't hurt. Feels nice l3 "
:>!
*Looking rather pleased with herself,she scratches a bit harder and closer to the base of the horns*
*he starts Very Loudly purring*
*Zero can't stop herself from giggling. That's very cute <33*
Aww-
*he starts scritching the top of her head*
Oh-!
...
...oohh that actually feels really nice- ^^
"soft l>"
Hehe- am I?
*Zero seems quite happy about this*
"Very! Soft fluffi sky person.."
:>>>!
Thank you!! You're a very soft fluffy pretty creature :]
"thank you 0> "
*he pauses before adding,* "you're a pretty creature, too."
*Zero squeaks,before...heavily blushing-*
*he seems very amused by this*
I,um...thank you,,/////
"lovely pretty sky person o3"
*She blushes harder*
That's- um- oh gosh-
"whaaaat? You got all gushy over me last time, now its my turn o3 "
I-I thought you were sleeping!!!
*Zero buries her face in her hands*
"Hehehe.. noo, i heard all of it o] "
*Zero whines. Embarrassing for her </3*
Nooo... T//^//T
Curse you and your lack of sleeping...
"im flattered you think so highly of me.."
*Oh goodness,she's so doomed-*
W-um-y-uhm- y-you are really wonderful,so-
"You are, too.."
O//////O
H y p n o p l e a s e -
*he nuzzles her forehead*
*....yayyyy ^^*
Hehehe...soft...
*he gives her a little kiss on the forehead*
*Zero freezes before looking more flustered than he's ever seen her*
...hbbggGVBFHVGGHHGGBFDSFVFDHDHFHDGDFG---
*...oh boy.*
*hes trying realllly hard not to laugh at her-*
*Zero is not calming down any time soon. Zero is losing her goddamn mind.*
HVVGGHHGHHGHFFGBFGFGHHHHHH
He kissed me he kissed me he kissed me he kissed me---
*She puts a hand on her forehead before attempting to hide. This does not work.*
*he starts cracking up a little. Mean to her </3*
Mmmm...Q//^//Q
*...She does love his laugh,even now...*
Wh...what even was that for???
"affection o> " *he! Does it again.*
///0///^///0///
*AMAZINGLY,this flusters her worse. Who would have thought?!*
*unfortunately for Zero, he seems to find flustering her to be the most entertaining thing in the world*
*She's absolutely doomed. She does enjoy it,to be fair,but he doesn't need to know that-
She has to figure something out! >:<!!
Without much consideration,she leans forward and kisses him on the forehead too*
>:]!
...
...O///_///O.
" o3 !" *he makes some kind of strange happy creature noise <3 *
*Zero attempts to stammer out some explanation,but this absolutely fails. She just winds up staring at him with a very flushed face. It's so over for her </3*
*he starts actually laughing. Mean to her </3 .*
*Zero huffs,before just. Faceplanting against his chest. Great option.*
>:[
*he pats the back of her head*
"Cute o3"
/////
Well,so are you-!
"Well, thank you."
...beautiful,too...
*Simp <3*
"so are you o3 "
*he appreciates it <3 *
Ah- /////
I-I mean- um- ...thank you,, >///m///<
*he boops her nose again*
*She giggles before booping him back*
*he gently presses his face against her hand like a weird cat <3 *
*She laughs again*
Silly...
*he purrs, nuzzling her hand*
Hehe- you act like a cat :3
"heh, i suppose i do.."
I like it :>
*He closes his eye and presses his face fully against her palm*
*She begins petting him with her other hand,going quiet and seemingly admiring him
Cute...*
*he starts purring again. Kitby <3 *
Cute...
*She attempts to purr back at him. This does not work*
"Nooo, you're the cute one l> "
Uweh- O///O
Ah,nah,I,um- ...aha,,
*Yeah she's got nothin*
*he wraps his arms around her, pulling her into a tight hug. Cuddles for Zero <3 *
*She hugs him back. She seems quite happy about this*
*he rests his melty chin on the top of her head*
*Zero giggles. She seems fine with this*
How come you're all wet and gooey here-?
*he shrugs,* "no clue 0P "
Fair enough! It's okay,I don't mind it :>
"i figured you wouldn't 0> my Zero doesn't either"
Hehe,yeah,that makes sense-
That's right,your me has that horn like yours...lucky...
"she does o> ! It looks wonderful on her"
Ah- o//^//o
I can imagine,hehe...
*he gently pets her head in the same place his version of Zero has her horn*
*She leans into him,trying to purr. It still doesn't work*
*he decides to mimic her attempt at a purr*
Hehe- it actually sounds better when you do it :p
"its cute when you do it, though o> "
Eh-////
Hehehehe...you're very sweet....
"you deserve all the sweetness ever." *he says it like its the most obvious thing in the world..*
O//^//O...>///v///<
Ah- thank you- heh-
Y-you really gotta ease up on the teasing,Hypno-
".. i wasn't teasing you that time"
*Zero squeaks before staring up at him in silence. Her eyes are very sparkly,and she's blushing pretty hard. Oh goodness <3*
*he smiles at her*
...you're really sweet- goodness,,
"am i 0] ?"
...yeah,you are.
Not a lot of people realize it- and you aren't outwardly sweet to that many people,but...you are. You're very kind.
"awhhh, thank you o] "
You deserve to know :]
*he smiles so, so happily <3 *
*She hums happily before leaning against him*
You're wonderful...
*he starts purring again*
Pretty pretty pretty Steve...
*he purrs louder*
*...She can't help herself <3*
Sweet pretty beautiful wonderful intelligent Hypno Steve the only good thing to come out of Dark Steve's existence one of the best people ever absolutely perfect-
*Hypno is still listening, but he glances towards the tent..*
*... she hears quiet footsteps.*
...huh.
*Baffled,Zero turns around*
*she sees Azrael and Guardian emerge from the tent..*
*...OH GOD. no,no,it's fine,they were probably napping,it's fine,ACT NORMAL*
Oh! Hello,you two! I,um- just showed up randomly again!! And that's all that's happened!!!! :D.
*Azrael seems oblivious, but Guardian clearly heard her-*
"Well.. its nice to see you again. May we sit with you?"
O f c o u r s e !
*Light and casual <3*
*they both go and sit beside Hypno*
*Zero clears her throat awkwardly,now unable to make eye contact with anyone*
S o ! How's it been since I left??
"Its been pretty good :> "
Oh good!! :> good good good good good <3
It's been going pretty well with my group too!
"im glad you're doing well, friend."
*Azrael looks like hes about to fall asleep-*
Yea!
*...Finally managing to look up,she blinks at Azrial*
...was he not just sleeping??-
"... i accidentally woke him up trying to get outside :< "
"You stepped on my arm-"
"I said i was sorry D: "
Eh- D:
Guardian!! He's fragile-!
"I didn't know he was sleeping on the floor 0~0 !"
...????
*She looks at Azrial,utterly baffled*
Why were you sleeping on the floor????!!
"got pushed off the bed -~- "
Ah.
*She shakes her head in disappointment*
I'll get them.
"nooo.."
I will :)
*She nods assuredly
...likely she won't,but its the thought that counts*
*he sighs so, so deeply*
Hehehehe-
You can sleep now if you want. I'll make sure you don't get pushed off-
*he slowly nods, leaning against Hypno*
:>??
*She wonders how her Azrial would feel about the fact that another version of himself trusts Hypno enough to sleep on him. Perhaps she'll tell him someday <3*
Ah,yes. Hypno is a good bed.
*...now why did she say that???-*
*Hypno tries really hard not to laugh and just ends up letting out an awkward snort*
*Guardian gives her such a look when she says that. Hes baffled </3*
*...Zero blushes*
H-hey! That's not my fault this time!! My him said so himself!!!!
*This isn't helping in the slightest*
"m h m-"
*Hypno is too busy trying not to laugh to defend her </3*
He did! And he was right! He was very soft and cozy and warm and fluffy and-
*She just keeps making it worse.*
*Hypno is quietly cackling now*
*...Zero lowers her head in shame*
He...says it better than me,,
"i mean you certainly look pretty cozy-"
I-I AM!!!
*She says this like a defense. It is not </3*
*Guardian is only judging her a little <3*
...I should...maybe...stop talking..../////
"nooo, its finee-" *he thinks its hilarious*
*She sighs so dramatically*
So mean to me...hehe...
"nooo, im so nice to you"
You've done nothing but tease and laugh at me this whole time-
*And she's enjoyed every bit of it,but shh,don't tell him that*
"And you loved it- oW-"
*he gets cut off as Guardian very gently baps him with one of his wings*
"don't be mean to her >:/ "
*Zero cracks up at that
...she is still blushing,though. He had a point*
*Hypno lets out a very dramatic sigh*
Noo :(
You're fine,he didn't smack you THAT hard-... right-?
"nooo, dont be sad o< im ok.."
You'd better be! I don't want to beat up Guardian :[
"please dont beat up the angel that is bad for him-"
*Guardian is visibly startled*
Yeah I don't want to!!!
*She looks deeply distressed by this*
I would cry. It would be a bad experience for everyone involved :(
*Guardian hugs her. Surely this will make her feel better.*
*It actually does!
She happily hugs him back*
*he gently nuzzles her. Affection for Zero <3*
^^ yippee!!
*She seems happy about this!*
Lovely angel...
*he starts cooing*
Hehehe,birb-
*he presses his face against her shoulder. Happy birb <3*
*Zero giggles,patting him on the head*
You're so sweet,Guard...
"so are you ^^"
:>!
Thank you,heheh...
*hes very cozy*
*shes partially smushed between Guardian and Hypno.*
*This is exactly where Zero wants to be. She shuts her eyes,seeming utterly content. If she could purr,she definitely would be right now*
*Hypno rests his chin on her head again, letting out a low, staticy purr*
Comfy...
*Zero hums,snuggling in as much as she can*
*Guardian leans almost his whole weight against her*
Yayyyyyyyyyyy ^w^
*Very comfortable sky person. She might even fall asleep...*
*Hypno will never let her live it down if she falls asleep <3*
*...She falls asleep <3*
*Hypno sits very still, not wanting to wake her up*
Nice pillow...
*She mumbles,still asleep*
*he gently rubs her back*
*She flops over onto him more. She's so good at this <3*
*hes entirely unbothered by this*
*She smiles. Happy sky person...*
*Hypno gently scritches the top of her head*
*She makes a weird happy chirping noise. She is not a bird. What*
"... strange thing.." *he says, clearly affectionately*
*She pulls him closer,chirping again*
"cute o> "
*...Were she awake,she would definitely be insisting that he was the cuter one. Sadly. She eep <3*
*she wouldn't have won that argument if she tried <3*
