Attributing to Empathy [Zeke/Vinny NC-17+]

[Kago]

Zeke found himself standing amongst a throng of people going back and forth along the area he was currently in. Today he just happened to decide he would visit the capital city on the planet. If the name was still fresh in memory he believe it was called Scrijx Citi. It was one of the many things he decided to do upon his traveling here. He wasn't quite sure what to expect here he just hoped that something interesting would come about. Since arriving here, but a day ago, nothing of interest had occurred but he had patience and he didn't expect something to instantly attract his attention. No, he thought to go look about here and there sort of like sightseeing if one had to put a word to it. But he wouldn't go so far as to call it that. He was just going about seeing if he had wasted his time coming here. One couldn't exist, with the knowledge of other worlds with life on them, and not have heard of this planet. Then again he supposed that was a sort of exaggeration. He was sure there was probably someone out there but it wasn't that of an interesting thought to rail off on so he dropped it only to mind where he was going.

Currently Zeke stood in the market area. To be exact though he stood next to a side of a building, some shop that sold who knows what, with his arms folded over the white long sleeved shirt he wore that also had red going along the edges in a sort of intricate manner on the shirt. The pants he wore a matching color, white for the most part but along it's edges was also a sort of intricate red pattern. Fairly simple attire for him to have worn out today not something to consider much in his opinion. He didn't dress to impress but he wouldn't think he didn't. His crimson red hair slightly hung about his shoulders as the rest simply trailed down his back. Overall he wouldn't say he was anything special. Then again he feigned being modest more often then not. But he wasn't thinking about himself here. He was minding what was going on about him now. Being in the market area he supposed he should take the time to move about and look around. However he didn't think to go anywhere yet. He preferred to stand here and see if anyone of interest came by. His crimson orbs had come to look this way and that, sorting through those that passed by, to see if any had any distinct and notable features, only to find not only did nothing here interested him but no one he saw did either. At least not so far. Maybe that would change but he couldn't see into the future. He just had to wait a bit longer and then he saw himself going somewhere. If nothing of interest came to him then it only made since to look about.

Considering the time Zeke spared a glance up at the sky only to raise a slightly pale hand to shade his crimson eyes from the sun. The bright light that beamed down upon all in it's line of sight shone hotly upon his bare skin. The parts that weren't covered by clothing. He really wasn't use to standing out in the sun with what his home planet, Jeskara, was like. Anyone who had been there or knew what it was like would understand. Not to say he couldn't handle the sun here. He had been standing here for awhile now and had long since gotten use to it. It was unavoidable when it was early in the morning as it was now. That left many hours of sunshine life to withstand if he was to be outside. It was yet another thing he didn't think much about though. He didn't look up for long as he cast his gaze back amongst those that passed by him while letting his raised hand fall at his side where the other lay as well. He found himself grimacing a bit just enough to reveal his rather sharp and elongated canines at his displeasure with his current situation.

[Chrimien]

And it seemed something interesting would happen. In the crowds walked a small male, dressed in a black sleeveless turtleneck, and tight yet baggylike pants. He was on his way somewhere, though he kept his head down, black hair overshadowing his eyes as he walked. His ecru colored skin showed beautifully in the sunlight as he passed the paler male. Heeled boots making a thump noise on the ground as he moved down the street. He exited the marketing area and was heading towards an area less populated, towards a building, what could be called a Library it seemed.

[Kago]

Zeke had let his crimson gaze sweep over the crowd for what seemed like a long amount of time. He could never really be sure how much time had passed by. What he did become aware of was that he actually spotted someone that stuck out to him. Seeing how everyone was going to and fro he couldn't quite get a good look at this person but he noted black color that seemed to show from the many other people going past him. This felt like a chance for things to get interesting. Perhaps this dull day would brighten up. It seemed like a possibility now but first thing he had to do was to follow this rather interesting enough looking character and see where he was off to. With that he took his first step forward and kept his gaze focused or rather locked onto the fairly young looking male as he followed after him.

Considering what he had seen so far the young male who caught his attention was definitely worth looking over. He could only tell so much from a first glance so whenever this young man stopped then he would approach him. For now he was nothing more then one of the many people about walking around. That was just how he wanted it to look but really he was going to follow him. Though he would admit he was tempted to speak with him now but it was better to see where he was going before thinking to stop him.Perhaps this way he would know exactly where to look for him if he really did raise a lingering interest. Otherwise he could have been wasting his time but it was something to do other then standing around and he was going for it.

[Chrimien]

He stopped at a street briefly, as if pausing before he started walking again. Soon enough he actually entered the large building. Walking over to the desk he greeted the man there before walking further in. The shelves were tall, a ladder by each one to reach the topmost shelves. He found an open area filled with tables and comfy looking chairs. It was an area away from everyone else, secluded by shorter bookshelves. He moved to one of them, searching through it.

[Kago]

For a moment Zeke had thought he had been spotted when the young man stopped. Though he may have paused he noted he hadn't look back. Perhaps he was mistaken. Either way he briefly came to a pause himself seeming to suddenly spot something off to the side that interested. That was until he noted the young man was off again. That was when he took off himself following him once more. Where was he heading? That was the question he had come to ask himself but had no way of finding out until he saw the young man reach his destination. He wasn't sure how long that would be but it didn't seem to long until he saw they had come to a large building .Well, it was the young man who came up to the large building. He only came up to it after he saw he had entered it. There he noted that this was a library. The library... A library. How dull did that sound? Perhaps the young man wasn't going to be as interesting as he had hoped. Well, he didn't really have anyway to find out for sure until he actually went forward. Considering for a moment as he had paused for a few seconds he decided to continue on. He was far from being anyone that was considered a quitter. No, he would see for sure, for himself, whether this young man here was worth his time.

Proceeding into the library Zeke let his crimson gaze travel around the library. As expected there was really nothing but shelves and shelves of books and the few people, he assumed were rather dull as well, who come to read here. He only briefly noted all this as he soon spotted the young man from earlier as he seemed to go further in. He nearly missed him. He couldn't help but smirk at the thought partially revealing one of his rather long canines. Perhaps it was his lucky day. It was with that thought he set off forward following the young man in the most inconspicuous way possible that one could manage in the library. What way would that be one might ask. Well, it should be quite obvious what one did in the library and surely one wouldn't assume that someone hanging about the particular area was odd when they were also doing what a library was meant to do. That was what he thought. It was just such a thought that caused the smirk he had upon his lips to linger a bit longer then necessary. However as soon as he turned a corner, towards where he saw the young man go, he let it pass from his features to hold a rather dull if not just passive look set upon his features.

There he was. There was the young man who caught his interest. Zeke saw him in this rather oh so convenient secluded area. It was just perfect. He grew excited. At the prospect he had the chance to be with this young man alone. Being where he was now, standing by the edge of one of the shelves as if he just happened to be looking at the books along the area, he had come to a stop to be close but not too close. He wasn't going to just go jumping on the young man. Although he was slightly tempted. Merely at how he looked from afar. That was certainly something. Well, he couldn't just stand here imagining things about him. Oh, well he hadn't quite done that so much yet. Well, it was more like he hadn't meant to but he really didn't care. From where he stood the young man looked attractive enough. It was about time he did something to get his attention now.

Zeke had set his crimson gaze upon the shelves he had turned to face at some point in time while he was thinking over the young man here. One of the random thoughts that suddenly came to mind was that he looked absolutely delicious. Wasn't that such a random thought? It was for him at least. Well actually that was a lie. It wasn't random. His mind had just happened to be wandering in that direction and he really needed to stop thinking so much and take action. With that last thought he suddenly reached out a slightly pale hand of his to grab a random book on the shelf there. It was then he turned and pretended as if he were perhaps going to look for more book or might go sit down to read the one he had in hand. However instead he came to a stop relatively close to the boy where he turned towards the shelf he stood in front of and then thought to speak as if he realized something. "Excuse me." Zeke suddenly spoke with a closed lip smile set upon his features afterward as he turned to face the young man. He was hoping he wouldn't notice what he was right away if at all. His long canines were a dead give away for anyone who knew about what he was. "I'm sorry to bother you but I was wondering if you perhaps know of any good books around here?" It was an attempt to make conversation. It seemed like the most reasonable thing to do right now. So he went with it. Perhaps he would learn more about the young man. It was just as he hoped to do.

[Chrimien]

He turned his head to him, shimmering Emerald Green eyes looking at the paler one from behind midnight black bangs "Any good books?.....well it depends on what your interested in..." He smiled "That right there you hold in your hand is a male slash smut book I read about three weeks ago...I recognize the cover" His lips parted slightly as his smile grew with a chuckle. "Are you interested in books like that?"

[Kago]

Zeke was glad to see he had so far managed to get the young mans attention. The first thing he noted upon looking down at him, he was taller then he was, was his shimmering emerald green eyes. His eyes were quite a sight to him and attracted his attention for the moment until he heard him speak the he found himself focusing on not just his eyes but his face. He was indeed an attractive male as he thought he had been from afar. He felt the need to utter a compliment on his looks but it seemed to soon to do that so he said nothing. He was merely silent as he listened to what he had to say. He wasn't really interested in the books here but still it was something to talk about. He also wasn't really thinking to mind what was said but catching the word 'smut' had caught his interest and made him focus on what was being said exactly. So he had picked up a male slash smut book. He didn't exactly take the time to read books, not that he didn't at all, he just wasn't especially familiar with this mentioned genre. He found himself looking down at the book he had in hand before randomly opening it and suddenly looking closely at the pages to read what he had picked up exactly. He chose pages at random so he did didn't follow whatever storyline the book had. Then again it was smut, did those have a storyline?

It didn't matter what Zeke caught, what he read really, made him briefly raise a brow. It was seconds later he closed the book and looked back at the young man he had come to stand by. "I suppose I am." Well, not really but that may ruin things. "I haven't really read into such books before." He went on to say this not sure if he would make a good or bad impression with saying he was into it and read lots of it. He found he was quite surprised the young man here read such books as it sounded like he did. He struck him, from first glance, as an innocent character. Really, why read about it when one could do these things in these books with smut in them. That was really his preference if he was to say he had one. "But I'll be honest." He spoke this briefly pausing with a faint smile close mouthed smile settling upon his lips for a moment. "I don't read so much as I do." Maybe it wasn't a good thing to say now but it had already been said and the young man here could take it as he wanted to. He would not go into detail and would not add to it. "Do you like such books?" This question suddenly came shortly after what he last said as he was quite curious to know. Perhaps this young man, who he thought to be quite innocent, wasn't so. He had to wonder if he was a virgin. Was he? He couldn't tell by looking at him. He could probably tell if he was intimate with him but that was a way for him to tell. He knew just this one thing so far that interested him.Well, besides his looks at least.

Considering how he approached the situation Zeke had to wonder i he made the right approach. For all he knew the young man here would just walk away from him any moment now. He could do that and he really wouldn't be able to stop him. He didn't have any right to. Regardless of how interested he was in him. He would just have to hope the young man didn't decide to take off. Perhaps he could be a bit persuasive. If the young man was into smut then surely he wouldn't just run off at the mention of the subject. Now considering that and the books about he wondered if all the books here were on the genre or something close to it. He took a moment to just spare a brief glance towards the shelf he stood by but did no more then that as he looked back at the young man before him giving now what seemed like a random faint smile. It shouldn't be so random really. He was just being pleasant here or whatever word one would use when one was trying to seem like they cared. He did at the moment to some extent but not in the way one might think if they thought differently from him. He was just smiling at the fact that he had this rather delectable young man here with him.

[Chrimien]

Another chuckle escaped him "It makes an interesting read....this whole circular area hear is books like that...be them regular books or picture books of sorts. He took the book he had taken off the shelf, walking away from the other to reveal his 'delectable' backside before it turned from view as he sat in one of the plush cusioned chairs. He looked up to the other "Some of them have storylines......some dont, others are a mixture"

[Kago]

Zeke took a moment to look about the shelf he stood next to as he heard what the young ma said. That was certainly an interesting thing to hear. That all the books were similar to the one he had picked up. But he doubted he would read it. Like he doubted he would even read the one he picked up. He doubted it but that didn't say he wouldn't or that he would. Perhaps he would since it seemed to be about a subject he didn't mind. It certainly was something he could get into. Though he much rather do the things described in the book for himself. Not to say he didn't want a sort of storyline or rather he just wanted to do someone. He just would rather be doing things himself and getting with someone then just standing or sitting reading about it. He would think the boy perhaps preferred to read then take action but once again he would never really find out unless he asked. "I see." He uttered these words as he had watched the young man walk away though he would admit he was distracted for a moment and lost his train of thought on what was being spoke on. Really, he would much rather experience these intimate acts then read about it. An example as to why he preferred that was right in front of him. Not any of the books but the living breathing being he saw had come to take a book and seat himself down. No doubt about it, he would rather personally experience the things read in these books.

There was a brief moment of silence after the young man spoke again towards the books and their story lines. Whether they had one or not. "Which do you prefer? If you don't mind me asking?" He asked this, simply curious to know but also wondering about the character of this young man. "Ah, by the way I'm Zeke, may I get your name?" It wasn't a must know for him but he did want to know it. He didn't simply want to refer to the young man here as a young man though it was what he was or what he assumed he was. He did briefly wonder about the age of this young man with the books he read. But more so because of the interest he had taken in him. He just didn't do those too much younger then he was. Not that he was very old. He was just sure this young man wasn't older then him. Whether by the way he looked or acted he could assume through either he wasn't as old or at least was younger.

[Chrimien]

"My name?" His head tilted before he smiled "My name is Vinny...im 18, its nice to meet you Zeke" He looked thoughtful a moment "What I prefer?....I dont think I prefer any of them over the other....I just like reading, if the stories good or if I like it in general" He opened his book "What about you...." He looked at him and smiled "Mr. Zeke?....Whats a vampyre doing in a library hm?" He knew? How did he know?

[Kago]

Zeke made a mental note of the young mans name. It was Vinny. What a rather unique name. At least it wasn't one he was familiar with so it was to him. Then to somewhat randomly hear his age, If he wasn't mistaken then he was indeed a young man as he had assumed and not some boy. Besides if he had been a boy he would have been a very well sex educated one. Due to the books he read. There was nothing more to that thought then that. Well, he wouldn't be so surprised. He looked to be of an age where one would have been curious to know about such things or read about this stuff. Well, that was if he had been a bit younger and he didn't look all that young. Just not older then he was. He couldn't help but smile a bit, a closed mouth smile, as the mention of it being nice to meet him. He at least didn't tell him to go away so he took this as a good sign. He now considered what he could say when it was his turn to say anything at all. He did hear Vinny go on to talk more so he minded his words as he thought on what more he could say now. He acknowledged that Vinny had no favorites here but it really sounded like he was into those that had a storyline. Unless he considered smut just fine with love making and nothing more then that. He had read more the a few books in his life time and he knew a book with a storyline when he saw it. He just wasn't so interested in focusing on the pages of a book when he had something else he could be focusing on. Something or rather someone he could touch and be touched back by. That is to say a book nor a character in a book could really do anything for him but he supposed he should think on more then just being so intimate with another. A good book was a good book but he certainly hadn't come here to read.

It was at Zeke was considering reading did he catch the question directed at him. He found himself looking at Vinny with a briefly partially surprised look set upon his features as the question continued to reveal his race. He frowned just a bit as he wondered how the young man here figured it out. He had done his best not to show off his long canines. Was it seen or was his complexion such a dead give away. He was sure that there were some other races had a fairly light complexion. He suddenly gave a somewhat broad smile showing off his pearly white teeth that clearly showed his long canines as well then he let out an ever so light chuckle that was very brief. "I didn't think it was so obvious." He began wondering if it had been. "How did you know what I was?" He asked this out of mere curiosity, really. He considered asking the question asked of him, with why he was here, but he wasn't rushing to say anything there. Besides he wasn't really thinking to say he had followed him. Following anyone like he had didn't really express good intentions and wasn't a way to start out a conversation if one wanted another at some other point in time. What could he say though. That he wanted a taste of him. That wasn't a lie but he couldn't really say such a thing. No, that wouldn't be wise at all. He chose not to say anything on that subject unless he was asked again.

[Chrimien]

"No...its not obvious...that much I can see.....but one of my parents is an Empath....I have inherited this ability so along with feelings I can tell what you are" He smiled then frowned "Though its because I can feel that I cant be in crowded places...." He sighed. Hed been somewhat friendshipless growing up, when he was small hed been in so much pain from soo many feelings, his parents had confined him to being around only them until he was old enough to get the ability under enough control that it wasnt so painful...he loved his parents and was greatful for them...there had been people who said it was wrong for them to confine their child...but he knew they did it because they loved him.

[Kago]

Zeke was relieved to hear that it wasn't so obvious as to what he was. That meant he wasn't losing his touch with hiding what he was. It was unexpected to hear that Vinny here was an empath. What was an empath anyways? He wondered this until he heard Vinny finish what he had to say. So he went along with what he was feeling. That meant he could tell his emotions and would feel it to. That was what it sounded like it meant at least. Did that mean he could always tell what he was feeling. It was a bit disconcerting but interesting in a way. He really hadn't been mistaken to follow Vinny here. At least he couldn't read minds. That way he couldn't tell any of the inappropriate thoughts that crossed his mind recently or later on. He was sure it was bound to happen as even now he wouldn't say his thoughts were entirely innocent. Not only was this young man deletable looking but he was also quite interesting. That alone made him want to take a go at him but that just wouldn't be the right thing to do. He needed to just suppress any urges he had and try to keep his mind from wandering too far. It was much easier said then done though.

What was there to say now? It was a question Zeke asked himself as he looked at Vinny. "That must be quite bothersome." He spoke this trying to avoid any long silence as well as trying to keep his thoughts from wandering in a more inappropriate manner that would make him really feel the need to try something. At least Vinny wasn't bleeding or anything. Although he was very aware of the fact he was a perhaps the closest other living being. The only male he could see that he still thought look quite delectable in every way he thought was possible. "I can't imagine you got to spend time with others much." If he was an empath as he said that would be the obvious thing to assume. "Do you usually come to places like this?" He wanted to add that he certainly didn't but found that it would look quite odd here so he said nothing more then that. "I don't suppose you have a girlfriend?" He wasn't sure if he should assume Vinny was straight or Bi or gay.

Really, Zeke just assumed an eighteen year old would be with someone so whether or not with a crowd that particular loved one would be hanging about. He also realized that if he did have someone he was wasting his time here. Not that he planned out what he wanted to do. It was more like he knew what he felt he wanted to do but he kept himself from doing so as anyone would when they didn't straight out acted on how they feel. Just because he felt attracted to Vinny here didn't mean he was going to say it or go off expressing it when he just met him. There was that and he had no idea what Vinny thought of him. So, he thought he looked attractive and delectable, especially his back side which made him wonder what the lack of clothes would do for him, but that didn't mean he would act on that. It just wasn't the reasonable thing to do no matter how much his thoughts wandered towards all he could do with the young man here. His wandering thoughts almost made him smirk but he instead kept what looked like a faint smile that did show his teeth just a bit.

[Chrimien]

He nodded, looking a little sad "It is....I dont have many friends.....for some reason everytime I make a friend....they end up leaving and I never see them again...." He looked down before looking up again "Girlfriend?......No I dont....Ive been asked but Ive never accepted...I dont find girls attractive that way at all really...." And he may have just given away a bit of information that just may have made the vamps day. He blinked at Zeke "You seem to get lost in thought alot" His head tilted "Even if you try to cover it up by looking like your looking at something....."

[Kago]

Zeke thought what Vinny said was a pretty horrible thing for anyone at a young age. He was far from being parent material, at least n his own personal opinion, but he was sure that socializing with others at a young age was a must. Or rather something that was helpful to young kids as it helped with something in the future. He was never sure on the details there. It wasn't a must to know now so he didn't even bother recalling it. Not that he was sure he really knew it. He was sure if he looked it up he could find something here in the library but that wasn't necessary. Besides he was still listening to what Vinny had to say. He was actually quite happy to hear what was said next. Not only did Vinny not have a girl friend but it didn't seem like he was straight either. This gave him the desire to smirk but he managed to suppress it thinking it would definitely seem out of place and perhaps have questions asked towards it's source. He really didn't care much for that. "That's a real shame." He feigned a bit of a sympathetic voice. Not trying to sound fake but saying that someone like him should be with someone. "You really are an attractive young man." He spoke this quite honestly and meaning every word of it.

Why would he lie about such a thing. Zeke was after all still here when he could be anywhere else. "I suppose that would mean you never did a single intimate act that is described in the books you read here." He motioned towards the book shelf he still stood beside with a slight motion from his hand. He would hope that was the case. Although it would be interesting to hear he had. He much rather try this delectable specimen before anyone else did. But the chances of that may not be very likely. He didn't know much about the race on this planet other then common knowledge so he wasn't sure what to expect. Thinking on that a bit though he had to wonder what Vinny was exactly. He didn't think Zercans were empaths so did that make him a half breed or was he still all Zercan. It could have even been a possibility that was wasn't one at all but just lived here.

It seemed Zeke had gotten lost in thought once more for the who knows what time. It was what Vinny said last that caused him to focus on him once more and then give a light chuckle with a faint smile that once again revealed his long canines. "Was that something you noted by watching me or was it because you happen to be an empath?" He was curious to know but he doubted one had to be an empath to be able to notice how he zoned out every so often. Especially when he had something interesting to think of. Currently his thoughts were really all focused on Vinny and everything said by him. If there was anything to blame his wandering thoughts on it was him. It was because he found he was an attractive and interesting character and he absolutely loved it. But he needed to see if he stood a chance here or he could have still be wasting his time here even if he was single and hadn't been with anyone in an intimate manner. "You know you really cute when you do that." He referred to when he had tilted his head as he spoke to him. He couldn't help but notice that little bit of movement.
