[You might be minding your own business, out for a walk or sitting peacefully alone. But, whatever you're doing, it's about to be interrupted by a small, palm-sized bat with golden eyes landing on you.

Maybe on the shoulder, maybe in that comfy new fur you've grown or in-between those adorable ears; one thing's for certain: this bat is a cuddle-bug and will be snuggling into whatever warmth you can provide.

....

He's cold, dammit.]

[Rinoa really didn't want to venture out as cat-girl, but she was going stir-crazy indoors. And besides, if it was a curse, then she wouldn't be the only one looking weird, so she took some comfort in that.

She was merely taking a walk down one of the Lower Districts many streets when she felt something land on her head. Unfortunately, she was still on edge, so immediately she began to flail and swat at whatever was on her head.]

[not_heavens_adam]

Skree!!!

[Suddenly hands and he's being flung off Rinoa's head. This wasn't what he'd planned. Luckily, it wasn't like he hadn't been a bat before, it was just the solo-flight that felt strange, so he righted himself before he could hit the ground.

Not wanting to make the same mistake twice, he landed on the ground on his 'feet' and folded his wings around himself, golden eyes staring up at her.

Sorry, Rinoa :c]

[sorcery_fledgling]

[It takes her a moment to regain her breath, fighting to compose herself as the dregs of adrenaline and paranoia finish making their way through her system.

Hands clutched to her chest, she finally looks down and notices the bat staring up at her. Recognizing golden eyes and, since Johnny was her first introduction to bats, she instantly realizes who it is.]

Sorry, Johnny. Still a little shaky, I guess.

[not_heavens_adam]

[He cocks his head to the side before flapping a couple times to get him airborn enough to land on her shoulder.

Carefully, he cuddles close and gives as much of a bat!kiss as he can to her jaw. (the only place he can reach.)]

[sorcery_fledgling]

[She's glad he's on her shoulder, because she had the urge to pounce on him for a moment. The woes of partly transforming into a cat, she supposes.

All's forgiven as she gives him a gentle scratch on the head (how does one pet a bat, anyway?)]

So a bat, huh? I guess this isn't too new for you.

[not_heavens_adam]

Scree--

[No, but the annoyance of not being able to talk is there. Still, at least he can offer small bat!cuddles.

Which is something.

And just what he's doing right now.]

[sorcery_fledgling]

[Aww, cuddles!

She returns them, purring happily.]

You're being a good boy, right? No divebombing people?

[Otoha wakes up suddenly, disoriented. He looks around, confused. Where is he? ... And then it hits him. He's in Johnny's apartment, but he has no idea how he got there.]

[... More pressing, though, is the strain on his back. He turns his head to look, and his eyes widen at the large black wings on his back. It must be another curse. ... He should find Johnny. He starts moving through the apartment, looking for the vampire.]

Johnny? Where are you?

[not_heavens_adam]

[Johnny had been napping upside-down from one of the doorways, but the sound of Otoha's voice woke him. He took off, flying around the man and chirpping when he found him, only to plop himself in Otoha's fluffy-looking hair.

Hello, Otoha, he is glad you are awake and not gone.]

[bakegarasu]

[... What. He blinks in surprise at the bat, and lifts a hand up to stroke his head gently.]

Hey there.

[not_heavens_adam]

Scree!

[He'll just lean into that hand now, it's nice to be pet.

After a moment, though, he climbs down to Otoha's shoulder and sits on it.]

[bakegarasu]

What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in a cave or something?

[How do bats work.]

[not_heavens_adam]

Skree-

[Look, Otoha. Look into his golden eyes and know the truth.

But he doesn't have patience for this so he jumps off Otoha's shoulder and flies into what would be his room to land on the bed.

This is his, see?]

[faiofmisfortune]

[Given that Fai has just woken up and is lazily padding into the kitchen for something to eat and milk. He is really craving milk.

Still being groggy means he is not expecting something to land between his ears (the exact image of his brother's). He starts, ears pricking up, tail stiffening, and he fights his instinct to pry whatever is on his head off. But he will "paw" at it. Sorry Johnny.]

[not_heavens_adam]

[Suddenly being pawed at! Johnny falls off and flies around to the counter and lands there with an indignant huff. He was just cold, gosh.]

[faiofmisfortune]

[His head follows all of Johnny's movements until the bat lands on the counter. Those ears droop when he catches what expression Johnny can make and his tail relaxes to a slow, curious swish. Clearly this isn't a regular bat. Now he feels kind of bad for fussing with the little guy.]

Um... sorry... Maybe you should warn somebody next time?

[not_heavens_adam]

Scree-

[Would warning help? He flies up to the chandelier and hangs there, watching bitty!Fai.]

[faiofmisfortune]

[Fai stares back at this strange creature, slowly contemplating on another conversation he'd had not too long ago until it finally dawns on him just who he's looking at.]

I'm really really sorry, Mister Rayflo.

[Yep, now he's super embarrassed. The boy moves away and finally sets about obtaining his drink using the glass that's always left out for him. His craving satisfied for the time being, he'll go back to looking at Johnny on the chandelier for a time before he speaks again.]

You can... you can go back to sitting on my head if you want.

[not_heavens_adam]

Scree~!

[Pleased, the bat comes down off his perch and curls up on the boy's head, little claws curling in the blond hair.

Much warmer!]

[faiofmisfortune]

[He glances up, ears following suit and rubbing against bat-Johnny in the process. That feeling kind of tickles and it makes him giggle.]

Better?

[replicatedcourage]

[Sola had finally worked up the nerve to talk to Johnny about things two weeks after he'd spoken to Darkleer... but with his boyfriend being a bat, it's pretty much hopeless. He'll wait.

It doesn't help that Johnny's decided Sola's hat is the warmest place in the apartment.]

Oh c'mon! I can't even get it off to get you out with the stupid horns in the way!

[Reaching around those towering antlers is pretty much impossible, not to mention he keeps getting stuck in doors and tangled in low-hanging furnishings.]

[not_heavens_adam]

Skree-!

[But Sola it's warm! Do you know how suffering it is to be cold? It's terrible.

...but he gives a little bat!sigh and crawls out from under Sola's hat and up onto one of the antlers.

And hangs there.

This is oddly comfortable]

[replicatedcourage]

[SIGH. Well. Better than in his hat ruining his hair, at least.

He's just going to go in the kitchen and make something to eat, trying desperately to avoid the low-hanging lamp over the breakfast table and succeeding in merely bumping it this time instead of getting ridiculously tangled.]

Phew.. okay, what do bats eat, anyway?

[For himself it's peanut butter and banana sandwiches all the way! He starts getting out the ingredients.]

[not_heavens_adam]

[Johnny hopped down onto the counter and went to sit on one of the bananas, peering up at Sola in hopes he'd understand.

He'd liked bananas before, but now he really craved them.

[replicatedcourage]

[Oh! Well then.

Carefully, Sola snags the banana from under Johnny and peels it, cutting up half of it into slices for his sandwich and leaving the other half unpeeled but whole to offer to his boyfriend-turned-bat.]

Guess you're the kind that likes fruit instead of blood like this?

[He's not sure why he keeps asking questions when he knows Johnny can't answer but he can't really stop himself. He's just used to it.]

[not_heavens_adam]

[The bat wrapped his tiny 'hands' around the banana and started nibbling on it, happily.

Good job, Sola~]

[replicatedcourage]

[Okay, that is really super cute. Sola leans his chin on one hand and watches Johnny eat, his own sandwich forgotten for the moment. Maybe keese aren't so bad!]
