The fox/Shouki just whines more and starts pawing at Asher more. He doesn't want to leave Asher....even after the way they both acted. He jumps away a bit as Asher tries to push him off, but he comes right back to paw at him some more, still whining. Then it stops for a moment...he just though of something. He quickly runs off and comes back. He paws again at Asher with a bracelet in his mouth. He was making one for Asher anyway before all the drama started. Might as well give it to him either way. It was meant to be a gift and it wouldn't feel right selling it or just holding on to it forever.

Asher didn't like how the fox kept coming back to whine at him and paw at him. It made him feel like he had done something wrong to the fox which he didn't think was even possible. He hadn't done anything yet that he knew of to make him upset and that upset Asher himself. He looked up when the fox left and sighed a bit. "See I told you I would upset you and make you leave." He laid his head back down on his knees and just sat there. He was a bit shocked by the fox coming back. He spotted the bracelet in his mouth and his ears flattened a bit. "H-How did you get that?" Asher didn't know what was going on but he knew that he didn't like it. It looked like something Shouki would have made.

That isn't the fox's intentions. He just wants to set things right, but he doesn't really know how so he's going with the be noisy...and try to be cute method. When he comes back with the bracelet, he like rubs against Asher's hand in a failing attempt to somehow get it on his wrist. He just whines and looks at Asher sadly, doing the cute eyes thing that some animals just pull off and look (some) friggin adorable. Shouki would come out and let Asher know it's him....but he doesn't want to upset him more and is afraid that might do it...especially after that cry he made that night. So he thinks it might be better this way.

Asher watched the fox at first begin to try to put the bracelet on and he kind of stared down at it. He didn't know why it wanted him to wear it or even how he got it. It upset Asher to think that the bracelet was from Shouki because he knew that he had upset Shouki. He didn't think that he deserved Shouki attention after all that. "Why do you want me to wear that?" He said pulling his hand away from the fox's reach. He didn't like the eyes the fox was giving him either. "You look at me just like he does..." Asher said looking down at the fox with a frown. He didn't know if he liked it or not.

Shouki whines a bit as Asher pulls away. He then starts pawing at Asher again, whining in a higher pitch. He just wants to try and make things right....but he doesn't know how. So he's just going to stick around and give Asher things...at least until he runs out of things to give him. He starts licking at Asher a bit. He's trying to say he's sorry....trying to appease Asher...before his stomach growls a bit before he drops the bracelet on Asher's leg before whining again, looking at him pleadingly wanting him to put on the bracelet.

Asher looked at the fox as he began to lick him and it deepened his frown. At this point he couldn't understand why anyone would like him. In his mind the fox should have hated him and wanted to be no where near him. That's the way it should have been with everyone. He didn't think he deserved to have anyone's attention. "You shouldn't bothering with me." He said before he heard the fox's stomach. "You should find something to eat before you starve..." Asher reached down and picked up the bracelet looking at it. He didn't know how the fox had gotten the thing, but it didn't matter. He didn't think he deserved to have it. So he placed the bracelet down beside him hoping it would stop the foxes whining. "Go eat something and stop bothering yourself with me."

The fox whines a bit softly as Asher frowns. He apparently has no clue how to make this right at all. He just whines a bit more at Asher's words and actions. He kind of poofs....back into Shouki form. "What can I do to make this right?" He isn't naked, believe it or not. He just has a wrap thing around his waist, covering the important parts. He's just looking at Asher with sad, chibi like eyes with his ears drooping a bit. "I don't know how to fix this." His stomach gurgles a bit. He's hungry, yes, but he wants to make this right first.

Asher lets out a yelp before he covers his mouth with his hand. He didn't know what else to so do when he saw Shouki there. He had thought the fox reminded him of Shouki, but he didn't think it would be Shouki. He feels like he should be crying, but he doesn't have the tears to cry yet. He just kind of looks away from Shouki because it causes him too much pain to look at him. "I'm the one that should be asking that....I screwed everything up." Asher didn't think that Shouki had anything to be sorry about. Asher was the one that did everything wrong. He said the thing that had triggered all this and he was the one that had cried and made everything worse. "Go home and eat..." Asher said softly as he looked down. He didn't really like to hear Shouki's stomach growl. In his mind it was his fault because Shouki was worrying about him when he shouldn't have.

Shouki whines softly. "I'm sorry Asher." He's automatically making sad chibi eyes at Asher without knowing it. He pulls Asher over to him and hugs him close. "I just don't want you to be mad at me or anything anymore..." He says softly before nuzzling Asher a bit hesitantly. "I just want to be around you more...." And he wants to be a bit less creepy about it. Instead of being a creeper fox in his yard or anything. "....I don't want to leave...." He whines a bit. He hasn't been able to be around Asher for awhile because of how he upset Asher. "...will you wear the bracelet now?"

"I don't understand why you're sorry..." Asher mumbles. He really doesn't understand it. Asher was the one that had done everything wrong and it was him who should have been saying sorry for everything. Asher lets himself be pulled into a hug by Shouki, but he is limp. "I'm not mad..." It wasn't even a feeling he had felt over the time period they had been apart. He hadn't felt very much other than a lot of pain and sadness. He didn't even think he was able to be mad at Shouki for anything. Asher didn't like that Shouki wouldn't go get something to eat when he needed to. He wasn't going to say it though since it was what had lead to their last fight. He didn't want to fight and he didn't want to starve, but he couldn't do anything so he just stayed quiet. Asher looked down at the bracelet where he had placed it and reached out to pick it up. "Yeah." He put it on, but it didn't make him feel any better about himself. He didn't feel like he deserved a gift.

"Because....you didn't get mad by yourself...." Asher got mad because of Vivi and all. So it's at least partially Vivi's fault, if not fully his fault. Vivi whines a bit before nuzzling him a bit more. "You're mad at me....or something?" He just wants everything to be normal again. "What can I do to make it right?" He kind of purrs as Asher puts the bracelet on. It makes him kind of happy. "I made it especially for you..." He says softly. He would go eat, but he wants to make sure that everything is alright between them before he does. Otherwise, he's staying where he is right now. "To try and set it right..."

"I'm the one that said the stupid thing and made everything worse." Asher said. It had been one of the main things he had thought about while he was alone. It was his fault in every way shape and form to him now. He had time to think it over and find every possible way it was his fault. "Why would I be mad at you? You didn't do anything to me." Asher said shaking his head. He didn't see how Shouki saw it, but he knew it was his fault. "Thank you..." Asher said though he meant it he didn't feel like he should be saying it. He should have taken it off and given it back to him saying he didn't deserve it. "What do you want me to do or say to make it right then...?" Asher wasn't going to make Shouki do anything when he didn't need to. Asher likes that he is so close to Shouki again, but he wouldn't say it.

"Nooo....don't be like that." Shouki halfway wraps himself around Asher. "Don't be like that." He nuzzles into Asher again. "You're too hard on yourself." It's the pot called the kettle black! Shouki is good like that. "You...sure?" He whines a bit unsure about it all. "I hope you like it." He says softly. "Because it's part of me trying to make things right..." He just hugs him tighter. "I....I don't know." Shouki has no clue. "Whatever would make this right again? Since I don't know how to do it myself..." His stomach gurgles a bit. "Would....you still be here....if I went to get food?" He isn't going to ask/see if Asher could feed him...it is partially due to pride...partially due to the fact that Asher's mother definitely doesn't like him.

Asher turns his head away from Shouki when he tells him not to be like that. He really can't help it and doesn't know how to stop himself from being like this. It's just the things that he thinks about and really can't help it. He doesn't really like it either though. He doesn't want to keep thinking about these things like he has been. "Yeah, I'm sure..." He really isn't mad at Shouki or anything like that. It hadn't even crossed his mind to be mad at him. "It's okay..." He doesn't really blame Shouki for not knowing what to do. He wouldn't either if he was the one that hadn't done anything wrong. Asher knew he had to do something to make up for his rude words and crying like a baby. "I have no where else to go..." Asher said softly. He really didn't have anywhere else to go to.

Shouki whines softly as Asher turns away. He doesn't like that...it makes him feel like he did something wrong or something. "Okay then...." Though he still doesn't sound sure on whether he believes Asher or not right now. Plenty of people hide it when they're mad. Maybe Asher is doing the same. "Okay...well....I'll be back soon."

After a bit, Shouki comes back with a bag of things. He sits down next to Asher before holding a bar out to him. "You do like chocolate right?" It's Shouki saying he's sorry again. H'e also got a bit of cheese, meat and bread to make sandwiches. He's a big fan of the sandwiches.

Asher doesn't like to hear Shouki whine like he does, but he doesn't know how to stop him from doing that. It seemed it was everything he did that triggered Shouki's whining sometimes. Asher didn't think Shouki believed him, but Asher didn't have a real reason to lie about anything. He didn't even think that he would be very good at it. Asher nodded when Shouki said that he was leaving. He wasn't going to leave his home or anything like that.

Asher was still sitting on the steps when Shouki had come back from getting food. He hadn't even gotten up or moved really. He was in the same place. Asher didn't like chocolate that much, but he wasn't going to deny Shouki's girt. He had bought it with his money and Asher knew that Shouki didn't waste his money and if Asher denied the gift Shouki had just wasted his money. Asher nodded and took the chocolate unwrapping it slowly. He didn't like the smell and he managed to mask it well, but at the first bite he lost it. His face wrinkled up and he closed his eyes against the taste.

Shouki can't stop the whining. His brain doesn't ask for permission before it starts up the whine. It just does it. And it isn't that Shouki doesn't want to believe him, he just finds it hard to. He had to do something wrong. Else things wouldn't be all weird like this. "Okay, well.....I'll be back soon."

And guess what noise Shouki makes when he notices the fact that Asher doesn't like the chocolate. He takes it away and wraps it up. "You don't have to eat it if you don't like it....what do you like instead?" He'll get some of it now....or later. One of the two. He isn't sure which yet, but he'll get it sometime soon.

(I got my wisdom teeth out yesterday which is why I didn't answer then .-. My pain pills apparently make me tired/dizzy )

Asher kind of flinched at Shouki taking the chocolate out of his hands. He didn't mean insult or offend Shouki by it. He was really going to eat the chocolate. He wasn't going to be the reason Shouki had wasted his money. He may not have liked it all that much, but he wasn't going not eat it. "I'll eat it. You bought it for me so I'll eat it." Asher said as he looked down at his hands. He was fidgeting with his hands not really wanting to look up at Shouki. He felt like he had offend or insulted him by not liking the chocolate that he had been given. He should have been grateful and happy, but Asher didn't and that was rude of him. He wouldn't be surprised if Shouki would get upset with him again. "Really, I'll eat it. You don't have to worry about me." He said kind of holding his hands out for the chocolate.

[That's okay, I understand. I just started school again and I'm working a lot so I won't be on very often during the week]

"I don't want you to eat something you don't like....I just was stupid and kind of assumed everyone liked chocolate..." Until now Shouki didn't know anyone who didn't. Instead, when Asher holds out his hands kind of, he puts a sandwich in it instead. "Do you like that meat and cheese?" He isn't offended or anything by the fact that Asher doesn't like the chocolate. People like what they like and don't like what they don't like. "What kind of sweets do you like? You never answered me..." Shouki doesn't like those Halloween candies wrapped in black and orange while other people kind of adore them. "Do you like caramel....or those hard candies?" He wants to get Asher something he likes.

Asher didn't like that Shouki thought he was stupid because Asher was weird and didn't like something that everyone else liked. He knew that it was him who was a bit at fault here because he should have just ate it without making his face. Asher looked down at the sandwich that Shouki had placed in his hand. "Yeah." He said nodding a bit as he looked down at the sandwich. He felt bad about making Shouki waste his money when he knew that he needed. Asher didn't really know what Shouki was talking about when he asked about the hard candy. He had heard of caramel before, but that surely didn't mean that he knew what exactly it was. He had never eaten it before. "I don't get candy often so I'm not sure what I like. I know I don't like chocolate." He said the last part a little muffled because he still felt bad. "My mother brought home something called Taffy. I liked that. "

Shouki is stupid for assuming anyone liked anything. That's the only reason. He smiles and his tail starts wagging a bit that at least Asher likes the sandwich. "Mmm...why not?" He doesn't see why Asher rarely got candy. When Shouki was with his family, he got candy once in away. They didn't want his teeth to rot out or anything, but it is a nice treat. "Well then....I'll have to bring you candies to try then....and I'll bring you some taffy later since you like it." He then makes himself a sandwich and starts munching on it. "Do you know what flavor the taffy was?"

Asher shrugged a bit as he looked down at his sandwich. He didn't know exactly why he didn't get candy often, he never really questioned that. "They just don't bring it home often." He frowned at the they because was now only his mother. He had done it without thinking about. He lifted his sandwich to his mouth and took a bite out of it. He shrugged at Shouki's question. He hadn't asked and nor had they told him what type it was. "I just know it's taffy. I didn't know that there were different types." He said once he was finished with chewing his food. He stilled didn't think that Shouki had to buy him anything. He didn't want to waste what money he had.

Shouki makes a bit of an unhappy noise before kind of nudging Asher a bit. "Well....I'll bring you candy. Different types of candy. We can try some of them together." Shouki definitely hasn't tried all the candies out there. He found some favorites and stuck to them. "Well...there's normal taffy and salt water taffy....then each has different flavors. I'll just get one of those boxes with different flavors. Then we can figure it out and I'll buy that type instead." He doesn't see it as a waste. It's for Asher so it isn't a waste in his mind. He munches some more. "What're you doing tomorrow?"

Asher remains somewhat limp underneath Shouki nudge mainly for the fact of the noise he had made. The noise he seemed to always make while around him and Shouki knew it must have been him. He was the one that knew next to nothing about how society worked. He was trying to just hang on as all these things happened. He was happy that he had met Shouki and he didn't want to change that, but he knew he must have been a pain. "You don't have to." Asher said not wanting it be like he was forcing Shouki to do so. Asher tail begin to sway a bit at the thought of eating the Taffy. He really did enjoy the taste of it. "Nothing." Asher said his tail slowing down to an almost halt. He didn't do anything expect sit around his home. The only time he got out was to see Shouki. It wasn't an eventful life or a busy one.

Shouki makes that whining noise that everyone knows Asher loves to hear. "Well....I'm gonna bring taffy and other good things that you'll hopefully like too! So be happy?" He's halfway doing the chibi eyes again as he kind of nuzzles Asher. He doesn't mean to bring Asher down or anything. He doesn't mean to ruin the happy...but he seems to very good and doing that though. "Are you still hungry? Do you want another sandwich?" He starts making another sandwich either way. If Asher doesn't want it, Shouki will be able to eat it.
