The barking of dogs had Yuuichi quickly moving behind his brother. He may be fine with dogs, but that didn't mean he wasn't scared of them. Peering over the side of his brother's arm when the door opened, his eyes widened just a tad and his brows shot up. No wonder Matthew found the guy interesting. Those piercings and tattoos he had, they were beautiful; and, it didn't help, too, that Yuuichi knew about Matthew's interest in these things. Problem was, he'd prefer it on someone else than on himself. Idly, he wondered. Was it because if he had them on himself, he'd end up staring back at the image he'd see in the mirror?

The thought made Yuuichi's lips curl up, smiling in amusement.

Matthew, on the other hand, didn't mind Yuuichi hiding behind him. Ever since they were kids, he always took the brunt of whatever was coming after his younger brother. "Thanks," he told Bran, "Ah, before I forget. Bran, this is Yuuichi. He's an incoming fourth year student taking up nursing." Yuuichi raised his hand a bit and smiled. As he showed his pearly whites, he finally stepped out. The difference in their bodies were obvious, and so were their style. Like the other pair of brothers, Matthew's had the more semi-formal feel while Yuuichi's had the casual feel. Even the colors they wore were strikingly different. Matthew's was plain, Yuuichi's was colorful. Well, bordering on colorful anyway if wearing colored pants was part of that.

"Thanks for inviting us," the younger of the two chimed in with a cheerful grin. When his eyes moved from brother to brother, he found himself undeniably drawn to the older one - the one cooking. He had a strange aura about him that had his features turning from cheerful to one of the more inquisitive look.

"And, that smells delicious."

The Royce Brothers were well-known in the campus, yes, but neither brothers knew them. One was too busy with work and his studies, and the other, well, with coffee. Matthew loved coffee, and he'd go on a frenzy, brewing and tasting every kind of coffee beans he could.
