[the door to the jungle room is wide open, humid air drifting out into the hallway in a wall of heat. the bright blues and orange of his long tail somehow seem to blend in with the everywhere green and almost florescent flowers, moving slowly over the damp ground and causing surprisingly little sound. he's long since moved himself from the garden into this room that's much more like home to him, and has rarely left it. the artificial song of birds that aren't really there echoes through the canopy as he pulls himself into a large, low tree, coiling around the branches and settling with his eyes locked on the open doorway, only half visible from where he is.]

*hey it's his favorite non-cannibal, he's just wandering through plz don't eat*

[now there's a face he hasn't seen in a while; he shifts slightly, but doesn't move from his perch.]

*Is just wandering through, looking around and fanning himself with one hand*

Damn. It's hot in here.

[nagadem.livejournal.com]

[lets out a low hiss once Ri's in hearing range.]

Placess sssuch as thiss tend to be.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*yelps and nearly hits the roof, completely startled*

AAAAAAAAAAAAAUGH TALKING SNAKE!!!

[nagadem.livejournal.com]

[jerks back at the shout before lowering his upper half out of the tree slightly.]

Ri.

*sees you and calms down, a hand over his chest*

Oh! Demyx! You scared me.

[nagadem.livejournal.com]

Obviousssly.

[pulls himself back into his tree, and if you're standing close enough, you can see him pretty easily up there.]

wrong icon

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*he comes closer then to make the talking easier*

What's up? Besides you? Are these your new digs instead of the garden?

Didn't see a thing.

[nagadem.livejournal.com]

If by "digss" you mean home, then yesss, I moved here sssome time ago.

whoo

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Too many people barging into the garden lately?

*sits against the tree*

[nagadem.livejournal.com]

I haven't ssslept there in over four monthsss. It was too cold when the weather changed.

[siiiiigh.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Oh. I guess I'm sort of out of the loop. Being laid up kinda does that to you.

*scratches his cheek, looking embarrassed*

[nagadem.livejournal.com]

Did sssomething happen to you?

[pretty out of the loop as well.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

I fought someone and didn't come out of it so good. But I didn't lose, so I suppose it was worth it.

[nagadem.livejournal.com]

I sssee. You're alright now, though?

[sinks out of the tree somewhat to look him over critically.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*puts a hand over his side in memory*

Took a long time to heal, even for me. But yeah. He took a chunk out of me, which was the worst part. I'm glad he didn't try to eat me.

[nagadem.livejournal.com]

Sssuch iss combat.

[not too surprised to hear that someone's ripping into people in fights.]

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but... I've never actually been that injured before.

*looks a little hesitant about saying that*

[nagadem.livejournal.com]

[stares hard at him.]

Were you ssscared?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Not when it was happening. I have the... ability to fight even though I'm grievously injured. I don't even really remember most of it.

[nagadem.livejournal.com]

But afterwardss.

[sprawls out over a branch, looking faintly amused.]

You are jussst like a human.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

I wasn't really scared afterwards either.

... and what is that supposed to mean? I am human!

[nagadem.livejournal.com]

No fear of death?

[hissing laugh.]

I know.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

I've died before. I know what comes next, more or less.

And explain what you mean! What's with being human? How's it different for you?
