Jouthren watched the two leave with a confused look before shrugging it off. As they spoke in the other room, the Zercan went about the kitchen, boiling a pot of water for the tea. He tried very hard not to easedrop with his Zercan-enhances hearing, it would be rude to, right? No matter what they were talking about... even if it was him.
"...He's my mistress and..." Jouthren rolled his eyes at himself. He was really getting rediculous. He very sternly blocked out the conversation taking place in the other room by concentrating a little too hard on which flavor of tea they should try first.
"Am I, Ren?" The mauve Zercan jumped, turning to give the others a slightly confused look.
"Ah.... I'm sorry, what?" he asked.

Shor smiled in a half pout before moving over to the table the Zercan was working at. "I'm not terrifying, am I? I don't...I don't know...intimidate you or anything, I mean," he explained as he sat and smoothly crossed his legs.
Licking his lips lightly, he added, "I wouldn't want to make you...uncomfortable."

Jouthren watched the man warily until he sat down. He blushed darkly at the other's words. 'He's not my mate. He's not my mate. He's NOT my mate!' the Zercan chanted in his head like a mantra. "Ah.... N-no.... not necessarily," he mumbled before moving to retrieve the pot of boiling water from the stove. He poured hot water into two cups before mixing in the tea. Once the tea for himself and Hors was ready, he placed them on the table then poured a glass of wine for Shor, since he'd wanted some.

Shor smiled happily and winked at the mauve haired boy the next time he looked up. "Thank you," he said as he reached out to gently grasp the flute of the glass in front of him. He lapped up the dark blood red liquid, savouring the taste. "Mmmm...Delicious. Well, Ren...Now that we're all getting settled down and what not, why don't you tell us about yourself?"

Jouthren blushed darkly at Shor's words, though he wasn't sure why, they weren't anything blush-worthy. He ignored his burning cheeks as he passed a cup of hot tea to Hors before taking a seat at the table. "About... myself? Uhm.... Well.... What do you want to know?" he asked.

Shor shrugged and tilted his head thoughtfully. "I'm not sure. Everything. You seem like a...charming, intellegent, good looking individual," he remarked, grinning. "Just tell us anything that you want to, I suppose. Hopefully, this arrangement is long term, after all."

Jouthren blushed and pouted, deciding to ignore the other's compliments... because they weren't mates. "Ah... well... hmm. I... I grew up with my mother's brother and his mate... It was always awkward, though... so I left when I was old enough and was eventually taken in by another man... and that's pretty how much I got into this profession," he explained. "...Anything else you want to know?"

Shor nodded, listening. "I see...Well, anything else you feel comfortable telling us? Like, oh, what do you like? Candy...chocolates...flowers...jewellery...books - what?" he asked, smiling innocently. He still was coming up with a plan of action and finding out things that Jouthren liked would be a good direction to head in.
"Or, things you like to do?" Hors added, rolling his eyes at his brother's questions. How much more obvious could the other hybrid be? Normally, he was a lot more casual. It was almost embarassing to watch.

Jouthren huffed. "I... Why those things? That's a pretty incriminating list... If I didn't know any better... I'd say you were trying to pull something," he stated, his cheeks still burning a bright red color. He tried, though, to hide his blush behind a slow drink of his tea.

"Ijncriminating? Trying to pull something? Me?" Shor asked, licking his lips. "Why...I have no idea what you mean? Can't a man ask what kind of stuff another man likes without having some devious purpose in mind?"
He smiled sexily and winked. "Or...is it just that you want me to have a reason?"

Jouthren gaped, huffing at the man's cocky attitude while still trying to keep in my that 'He is NOT my mate! He is NOT my mate! He is NOT my mate!' It wasn't fair! Jouthren had spent a large part of his life moving from one home to another. He hated it when people found their mates because then he had to find somewhere else to live and he had to get used to a whole new set of people. He didn't want to have a mate! He didn't like it when people pushed him out of the picture, and he didn't want to do the same thing to Hors! It wasn't fair! And why was Shor acting the way he was... like he was just trying to make things harder on Jouthren!

Shor raised an eyebrow when the youth didn't comment. "Waaaas that a 'yes' or a 'no'?" he asked, smirking.
His brother just chuckled into his tea. "Well, this has certaintly been interesting," he murmured. "The tea, I mean," he added louder. "Quite good. I mean, what I can taste of it."
"Well, I know something I'd like to taste," the older boy said under his breath, taking another sip of his wine. "Mmmm..."

Jouthren smiled at Hors, greatful for the change of subject. "Thanks. I'm glad you like it," he mumbled before sending a pouty frown at Shor. "You're incorrigable."

Shor grinned right back in return. "Only when in bed or other such matters," he quiped back. "Besides...You never answered my question, just avoided it...So, I think I'd like to take that as a 'yes'..." He started to lean forward as if about to kiss the Zerca, but was shoved aside by Hors.
His brother sighed. "I apologize for my lecherous sibling, Jouthren. Really, I do. If you don't want him lusting after you, I'll kick him out."

Jouthren blushed darkly, slowing leaning away as Shor leaned towards him, his eyes wide. "Ah.... uh..... eh...... I... I...." He wasn't sure if he should agree with Hors or not. He didn't want Shor to keep acting so... lecherously, but somehow, it felt wrong to kick the man out. He knew it might hurt the other's feelings and that was something he didn't want, though he wasn't sure why because 'He's not my mate! He's not my mate! He's not my mate!'
