When: All day and well into the evening
Style: Any is fine
Status: Open!

[This month was already shaping up to be Zelos's worst yet here in Vatheon. Not only had that illness curse knocked him out for way too long, his own stupidity had lead to not only him making an idiot of himself - that he could handle and often did on purpose - but brought to light some things he was not prepared to deal with, so when this curse displayed every single morbid thought or memory that crossed his mind, he decided to do just as his roommate had done and get the hell out of dodge.

Unfortunately, Vatheon is a small enough bubble that the Chosen had a hard time actually getting away from people. The furthest cranny he could find, and thus where he'd rooted himself, was the beach up on the island and so the day finds him pacing the beach, having discarded his shoes in favor of walking barefoot on the sand and idly picking up shells, trying to clear his mind of anything in particular. He's managed to keep his thoughts on the sand and the surf so far, with the occasional thought of Altamira's warm sun or brilliant fireworks.

We'll see how long that'll last.]

*Oh, Zelos. But it's like the image you're trying to put across. For a guy who has a whole bunch of women on the go at once. That kinda guy. If Selphie knew how he thought about that, she'd say something. But she's just staring at the water, and it's reflected in her bubble*

How about you? Aren't there girls that make YOU weak at the knees, and feeling in love?

[chosen_gigolo]

*He's completely aware of his image, even if he sometimes wonders why he bothers. Selphie's question catches him off guard and he laughs, tossing another stone into the sea.*

Every girl makes me feel in love, Selphie-baby! There's just so many unique ladies out there, it's impossible to choose just one♥

*He'd only end up dragging them down into his own emotional wreckage anyway. Better to keep it light. Flirting, meaningless sex, make a girl feel special and appreciated but never make any promises. Just moments to hold onto, good feelings to go back to when they're needed without all the overemotional attachment.

That's how it's supposed to work, anyway.

Zelos's bubble flashes through an endless stream of women of all ages, some of them obviously in his mind for more adult things but many of them obviously not, just smiling, happy, laughing faces. Young and old, plain or beautiful, Zelos tries to make each and every girl he's ever met feel special and it doesn't always involve sex.*

*And there, in Selphie's head, is an image of her crowded by chocobos. She loves each and every one of them too, in a different way. But admittedly, there were some she loved more than others. It wasn't the same, but it was similar, as close as Selphie could get to imagining*

And you're happy that way? I mean... is it about you giving attention to loads of ladies, or about loads of ladies giving attention to you?

*She speaks plainly, and sweetly, because she really doesn't mean it in a nasty way at all. She's just curious*

[chosen_gigolo]

They can't help but give me attention~ I mean, look at me!

*He preens for a moment, pulling up his hair and giving her a smolder.*

It's only fair that I give attention back♥

*Letting his hair drop again in a sexy tumble around his shoulders, Zelos leans back on his hands and looks up at the sky, the sun warm on his face and his bubble now playing through scenes of him surrounded by giggling women.*

Mostly, I like seeing hunnies smile.

*Selphie giggles and shakes her head, scooping handfuls of sand over her feet. In her bubble was just another picture of Zelos as he was*

You're right! It isn't any wonder!

*Because there was no sense in pretending that Zelos isn't very, very attractive*

Well, I guess if that's what you want, that's what you want.

[chosen_gigolo]

Pretty much! Life's too short not to go for what you really want.

*Well not his, considering, but life in general. He's hoping he got through to Selphie with all this. He doesn't want to ask her again what she's going to do but his bubble betrays him and briefly shows Kenshin and then a few question marks.*

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie turns to Zelos with a bright smile - happiness was all, and that meant different things to different people, and that was good. She sees his bubble and tilts her head, Kenshin clearer in her own bubble, and an image of Selphie holding his hand*

I'm gonna just tell him... He has to kiss me. I'm not asking much. And if he doesn't... Well, I guess I've got stuff to think about.

Wrapping up here~

[chosen_gigolo]

That guy must not even be human if he can't kiss you.

*Zelos shrugs and gets to his feet, holding his hand down to Selphie.*

C'mon, let's take advantage of the rest of the sunshine and go for a walk. No more of this serious stuff for now. Whatever happens, it'll happen.
