"Let's flick through some stuff. Don't really know exactly what to watch."
[b]She turns the TV on. The first thing to pop up is an animated show. The title card reads, [i]JOEYJOE'S ODD ESCAPADES[/i]. It quickly goes through an intro of all the characters dancing and posing, then goes to a shot of Joey, the main character. He wears a leather jacket, and a really weird hat that looks like hair. He is facing off against his greatest foe, [i]MIO BRANDY[/i]! They both call forth their HELPERS, balloons that appear on their backs to fight! They smack balloons for a while, until Joey finally hits Mio in the crotch, and Mio dies.[/b]
"Wha-What was that? None of that made sense! I'm so confused on what just happened... Ugh... You know what, I think you should pick the next show out. Here's the remote."
[b]She hands the remote to him.[/b]

Leone grabbed the remote and placed it in his left hand, because he was left handed. "I guess Joey didn't like Mio because he kept on saying 'adumadumadum' as he attacked with his helper thing...I don't really know. I'll just flick through." Leone said flicking through the channels on the TV until they landed on [b]JoeyJoe's Wacky Quest Part 4:Emerald is Indestructible[/b] which Leone promptly changed off again. He stretched his arms out and slowly let his right arm fall right on the back of the couch, right behind Ry's neck but not exactly touching it.
-
[b]Ry noticed, and a small smile formed on her face. She knew this mean a human show of affection. That, or he just wanted to put his arm there. Either was fine by her. She shifted slightly, she was on one of the places where the cushions met, and ended up just a little bit closer to Leone. It was then she had an idea. She turned to him.[/b] "Hey, how about we watch one of those scary movies! I haven't seen one before."
-
"Oh? Okay then Ry." He said smiling. Leone knew just the perfect movie filled with body horror and scariness. He switched through the channels until he found [b]SAW[/b]. He turned up the volume somewhat as he sat there, watching the horror film. Leone moved over just a tiny bit, probably a bit uncomfortable with his seating..but he had gotten closer to Ry, not straight up weirdly close.
-
[b]Throughout the movie, there was several times where Ry would be extremely scared, practically clinging to him for the entire move. She couldn't, deny, however, it was a good movie.[/b]
-
Leone was kind of scared with her, though he had seen the movie a couple times he was still somewhat afraid of it. He didn't mind Ry being almost literally on top of him, In fact he kind of enjoyed it. Though he wasn't so sure about how Ry did..Leone was basically sitting right beside Ry now.
-
[b]To be honest, Ry enjoyed it too. He was just so nice and kind and... Well, frankly he was a great person to her. And, while she was embarrassed by her own behavior, she did enjoy the movie. She was now, calm, and sat beside him.[/b] "That was... Awesome! If I would've known these movies existed before, I would've started watching them years ago."
-
"Good, glad you enjoyed it." He said, smiling and looking at Ry. "There are actually a lot more horror movies out there, but still. I uh...noticed you were like....clinging onto me for almost the entire movie. Don't worry, I don't mind."
-
"Oh... Uh..." [b]She blushes fiercely, her cheeks turning bright yellow. She had hoped he wouldn't comment on it, honestly. She was embarrassed by it, but she really did like it.[/b] "Uh... What do you wanna watch next? I wouldn't mind another scary movie..." [b]She was clearly a bit flustered.[/b]
-
"Hmm...Let's just go through the channels for a minute." Leone said, turning his head away from Ry and started to flick through the channels. Some shows were, but not limited to [b]Single Kick Woman, Nayrootoe and Wyvern Sphere X.[/b] until he found a horror classic, [b]Scream[/b].
-
[spoiler]HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAGAHAHSHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAGAH[/spoiler] "Is that one good? Sounds like it'd eve make Ly piss his pants, and he's tough-as-nails when he's not around people." [b]She was very interested by the film by the title alone. She couldn't wait to watch it.[/b]
-
"It's kind of old. But it was popular back then, so we'll find out." Leone said, turning it on and the movie played. He was prepared for another hour of Ry clinging onto him because he found it kind of cute to be quite honest. [spoiler]my jokes r funny[/spoiler]
-
[b]And that was widely what happened. It was yet another hour and twenty-six minutes of clinging and a few soft yelps from Ry when tensions rose. She enjoyed the feeling of adrenaline when something scary happened, and also enjoyed the time she was spending with Leone. He was very pleasant company. As edgy as he looked, that's how big his heart was. Well, that's what Ry thought. She couldn't speak for everyone else. At the end of the movie, Ry clang on for a few seconds past the final scare, then realized what she had done, and, blushing fiercely, stopped and turned away for a second, then looked back over at him.[/b]
-
Leone had looked around, kind of blushing as well. He then turned to look at Ry, who was clearly more embarrassed than he was. "Uh....." He said, trying to figure out something to say to Ry. Then he decided to just slowly reach his hand out and pat her slightly and slowly on the shoulder for whatever reason. Probably to try and comfort her.
-
[b]She seemed to blush less, and she scooted back over to her seat beside him. She looked over at him, smiling brightly and widely. She was glad to have him here, and it showed. She had realized something while she was here, sitting with him, she was just too embarrassed to say it. It wasn't bad, or anything, she'd just never said anything like what she wanted to to anyone before. She finally mustered enough courage to speak again after a few seconds. Her voice was a little shaky, but it wasn't a scared shaky. It was more of a nervous shaky.[/b] "Hey, Leone... You're awesome, you know that? You're just so nice and considerate and... Leone... I don't exactly know what I'm trying to say here..."
-
Leone raised an eyebrow as be looked into Ry's eyes, paying full attention. Truthfully, he didn't know where this was headed because no one ever really confessed their feelings to him before. Leone had grown to like Ry each day he was in her ship, he was mostly used to her quirks and such but this was new to him. "I-i like you too Ry, a lot actually...but where are y-you going with this?" He asked her, stuttering as well. Possibly a sign of nervousness and anticipation of what was to come next.
-
"I... I don't know, Leone... I've never said anything like this to someone before... I'd like to know what to say, but... I think you already know what I'm trying to get at... The way I've been talking, the way I've been acting... I wouldn't imagine it's very hard to figure out..." [b]She blushes again, but not as fiercely as last time. She knew what she wanted to say... Well, kinda. She knew what her brain wanted her to say, but she couldn't get the words out.[/b] "Heh. This sounds like some sort of cheesy romance novel, doesn't it? The girl tries and fails to confess her feelings, and... Well... I never got father than that."
-
"Yeah..." Leone agreed with Ry as he was thinking of what to say next. At this point his face was pretty much red in contrast with his somewhat pale skin due being embarrassed for not figuring it out sooner. "I-I like you...a...a- a lot t-too. I w-would be sad if y-you left." He said, carefully choosing his words to avoid the word 'love'. Mostly because he wasn't so sure yet. Leone knew for sure he developed some feelings for her.. "It's amazing how much we've gotten used to each other in...so little time."
-
"Yeah... It really is... Leone... Can we just stay here for a little while? Just... Right here? Just with each other?" [b]She scoots closer to him. She had a few theories as to why it had all happened so fast, but she didn't care at that current point. She just wanted to sit there, with him, for a little bit.[/b] [spoiler]I actually have a reason why she's grown close to him so close. After Ly left, there was a void of someone she could care for in her life. She chose the person closest to her to fill that void.[/spoiler]
-
"Okay..I'm fine with that. Besides Birthday Girl, it is your day." He said smiling as he moved a tad bit closer to her as well. Leone honestly didn't have any other friends with Ry, yeah he met a goat kid once but he didn't like him too much. He didn't say a word, instead seeing if Ry wanted to say something, his attention fully on her.
-
[b]Her smile grew wider. Even though she had only told him around three hours earlier, she was happy he remembered.[/b] "Heh. I am very, very happy you're here, Leone. I'm happy you came to the Dojo in the first place." [b]She sat there, looking at him, in the eyes. She was glad he was going to actually just be there, with her. Nobody else, just them two.[/b]
-
He nodded. "I'm glad you were here at the Dojo too....it's rather nice right now. Y'know I just realized something, I could have gotten you a present! But..its my fault for not knowing." Leone admitted, leaning back on the couch and trying to relax with Ry.
-
"No, no, no. It's not your fault. You didn't even know. Besides, I'm perfectly happy with you just being here with me. I think that's good enough of a present, don't you?" [b]She sounded very genuine. As if any other present that he could've gotten, if he had known, couldn't have been better.[/b]
-
"Really? I mean..wow, thanks. You're a great person, one who I would never want to lose." Leone said with genuine gratitude. It was the honest truth really, Ry was his only friend and vice versa. He laid his arm on the back of the couch again, nearly behind her neck. Possibly a way to comfort her while they sit.
-
[b]She loved every second of it. Every second with him. A piece of her was missing since Ly left, and Leone could fill it. She liked this time. She then decided it was time to tell him. [/b] "Leone... Would you think any less of me for something I do?"

Edited by Obi-Emp Kenobi: 10/28/2016 1:01:37 PM"Not really, no." Leone asked, he was...perplexed and confused by the question. Truth be told he had no clue what to expect from the alien. "I won't have hatred for you, I can promise you that Ry."
