Water, Water Everywhere [Morrow/Ero]

[Kago]

After listening to what Morrow could only consider nonsense from a random man sitting next to him, it was a relief to get to their destination. It had been a long trip from Parenenai to Jeskara and it was practically impossible to find a ride to the place a reasonable price. Why people from his home planet feared the residents of the literally, and seemingly dark planet was obvious, he knew as much as he could read about it. Summing up what he knew, hell in a hand basket, however one took that term.

"It was great riding with you," This was the man Morrow had been riding next to him, the man was was flying the small cargo ship with a few other passengers.

"Yes, it was." Morrow's voice was stern, and forced, though he wasn't one for lying even he knew when to hold back the crude comments. "Now if you don't mind, I have to take my leave. "The ship had docked and people were leaving, he needed to get going also. With merely a welcome in return he was off and standing outside with a bag lugged over his shoulder.

Morrow's reason for being was simple enough, he was not on business nor was he on vacation, he was here to collect a few facts. "Where to first?" He questioned himself, moving away from the docked ships, he didn't walk far though, he needed to get his bearing before he took off.

Ero lay naked on the ground near the creek in his master's household. He hummed a bit and the water swirled, dancing along to his lipsong. His master was gone for the day, so he was allowed to stay in the garden. He loved the garden, not so much the plants but the water.

He sighed as he closed his eyes, humming a bit more as he rolled onto his back. "Hmumumumummmhmumummum...." he hummed softly, the water rising and dancing on the wall facing the busy Jeskaran streets.

Fortunately Morrow had a map, as if that were the answer to all his problems. It was that or hire a tour guide and he wasn't made out of money, mind you he had quite a bit on him, enough for something big, but he had a thing about saving and could be a real penny pincher. With the assistance of the map he had he made his way into the city. Where he was going hadn't quite been made clear yet, he would explore the area for a bit then settle on what he would spend his time doing.

One of the many things that crossed his mind was where he would stay and where he would get something to eat, walking down the street, but not in it, he thought over it. His mind settled on a place not far from where he was until he noticed a rather interesting site. Unless Morrow was imagining things he was looking at dancing water? It made no sense to him, he wasn't doing anything of the sort himself, so who? "Hello," He called out the moment he stood close to the walk with moving water along it, hoping to find its source.

[praiseofblood]

Ero gasped, the water splashing on the wall as he sat up, looking around for the unfamiliar voice. "W-who's there?" He asked, blue eyes wide.

[Kago]

Morrow's eyes were quick to settle on the wall beside him, where he heard the voice coming from. "Someone on the other side of the wall I'm presuming." He wondered if he could look over without getting caught, he could raise himself without having to climb. "Was that you with the water?" He referred to what he had just saw, and then he had also heard a voice, was that him? "You have a lovely voice," he only spoke from what he heard.

[praiseofblood]

"W-who are you? Please show yourself..." he asked, standing. If the master caught someone in their garden, he would get locked back in the dungeon.

[Kago]

Show himself? Morrow couldn't do that without crossing the fence, something he felt he needed to do in order to see this other male. "My name, it's Morrow." He felt he should speak, he didn't think he could walk away from this without finding out a bit more. "I'm on the other side of the fence, but if you want to I can." He didn't need to hear anymore, briefly looking about the area he took a chance with climbing slash using his telekinetic powers to get him over the top and onto the other side.

"Can I get your name?" He spoke once on the other side, before he caught sight of the only person he could see. It was a site that really shocked him, he could see a cute male who barely seemed clothed out in the wild.

[praiseofblood]

Ero gasped, standing, nearly stumbling over his ankle shackles as he stood, backing away. "P-p-please leave! Please leave!" he said, turning to run back towards the manor.

[Kago]

Morrow was confused, the moment the other male started to run from him. "Wait," he reached a hand out as he called out, wondering if he should give chase or leave. "Give me a moment, tell me your name," he was already moving forward, moving to run and grab a hold of the other males arm. He was trying to understand what was going on her,e perhaps he had interrupted something he shouldn't, he wouldn't know until he was told something.

[praiseofblood]

Ero gasped, wide eyed. "P-please sir! M-my master he--he--" he tried, looking at the male. He wanted his name.

"E-E-Ero..." he said, blushing as he tried to worm away, his blue hair falling about his waist. "My m-master calls me Ero."

[Kago]

Marrow wasn't any less confused when he heard what the man said. Why would anyone have a master? Was this really the kind of thing that happened on this planet.

"Ero, that's a lovely name." Honestly, that was what he thought, and he couldn't help letting his milk chocolate hues scan over the other male, he was beautiful, and he wasn't afraid to admit it. "Surely, it can't be legal for you to have a master," It sounded like this Ero was a servant, or even a slave.

"Are you here against your will?" he paused before asking another question. "Why don't you leave with me?" Where that had come from he couldn't say, he just felt he didn't want to leave the other male behind here.

[praiseofblood]

Ero blinked, eyes wide. "Um-u-u-um no! I c-c-can't. P-p-please." he said, shaking his head. "Release me..." he said quietly, trying to squirm away, shaking.

[Kago]

Morrow wasn't one to be forceful, not unless he head to, but he found himself immediately worried about this males situation. If he let him go now, there was a possibility he wouldn't be seeing him again, ever.

"You can't possibly like it here." He deduced the man was held against his will, or was kept in captivity long enough to be so submissive. Maybe he genuinely had a reason to be scared, he lived in no fantasy world, people were harsh and cruel, and not above beating others.

"I'm sorry, I can't," he almost thought to mention his conscious, but it was bit more then that. "Tell me, what's keeping you here." Perhaps if the other male was happy, but he could see he clearly wasn't, or was he just seeing what he wanted to see?

[praiseofblood]

Ero looked at the male. "Please. My master will be angry..." he said a bit fearfully. "Please leave. I cannot go--can n-never leave." He said, wrenching away from the beautiful male and running back towards the path through the thick underbrush and forest like atmosphere of the garden.

[Kago]

Morrow was left in a brief state of shock, the other male took off just like that. How was it he could never leave? He felt he was basically told to leave the other male, but he just couldn't do it, even if he was sure the other male was a Jeskaran native, and he someone from a planet wary of the people here.

It wasn't like Morrow wanted to get the other male in trouble, but he couldn't help running after him. "Wait!" He called out again, unsure what else he could do, though he considered capturing the male in a psychic sort of hold, he couldn't bring himself to stop the fearful breathtakingly pretty male. He feared he would lose him before he really met him.
