stood leaning casually against the outside of a restaurant, fixing the collar of his shirt as he waited for Denmark.
showed up a bit later, some what dressed up. He didn't want to come fully dressed in case he had to go home again. He didn't want to be the
laughing stock twice.
pushes himself lightly of the wall when he sees him walking towards him, his expression telling little.
Søren
was
glad to see him there. It calmed his heart beat a little, but he still was a bit sour from the previous time. Not that he showed it.
hoped to make up for that with tonight. He nodded to him once he was close. "There's a table waitin' for us inside."
nods and keeps his hands in his pockets as he looked him over in detail. "Lead the way, then."
felt comfortable in the simple, open dress jacket he wore over his shirt, matched with dull blue jeans. He opened the door to the_
restaurant, nodding to a certain waiter once inside before leading the way to a table for two.
hums a bit. He was interested in what the other had planned.
pulls out a chair for the other out of instinct. Maybe he did remember these things. He'd made sure their spot was somewhat private,_
though they could still easily see and hear the other guests happily chat and eat.
nods and sat down, appreciating it. He thought it was a little cute how far he was taking this.
just wanted to do it properly. He sat down opposite of him, glancing up at the waiter from earlier as he brought them their menus.
took his menu and started going through it. He didn't even know what he wanted to eat... he hadn't actually thought about it. At all.
turned the pages in his menu over as the waiter left, pausing at the drink chart as he knew the dinners and deserts that were listed.
figured since they were slightly dressed up beer wasn't the best option... though he didn't know with what to get. He was more focused on
that than food though.
mentally noted the name of a mild wine before going back to the actual dishes.
would like wine, depending on his dinner. Though, he was eying the steak.
glanced up at him once he'd found what he wanted, watching the other discreetly while he read the menu.
would go with the steak, he figured. He gave his order to the waiter when he came back before leaning back in his seat.
sat up straight when the waiter returned, saying his order. The waiter wrote them both down and took the menus with him when he left again.
hums and nods. "S'nice so far. But it'll be awkward if we keep quiet."
looked blankly back to him. "Takk for the observation."
smirks a bit. "So. How've ye been?"
shrugs, the waiter reappearing quickly to light a candle and give them their drinks before disappearing again. "Just fine, 'n you?"
smirks at that. "Fine. Well, more or less now."
nods, tapping his fingers lightly on his glass of wine. "'S good then."
looked at his glass for a bit before picking it up and swirling it slightly. He took a small sniff before sipping it. "..Good taste ye got."
watched his actions, secretly amused. ".. Didn't know you cared so much for alcohol outside beer."
smirks. "Ye kiddin'? I've had enough dinners with the Royal family to know a wide range of alcohol."
nods lightly and sips of his own wine. "Mhm.. Those does pay off."
nods back and continued to sip his wine slowly. He liked that they were in a quiet place.
would always prefer the quiet surroundings. He hummed softly while waiting for their orders.
Søren
was
glad the other was taking this seriously now. But he was still not fully happy... though, he'd not complain.
thought it was going well, so far. He looked up when the smiling waiter brought them their food before going to the next table.
licked his lips and started to cut at his steak. He liked it rare like this... it was perfect~
((I'ma sleep now. God nat~ ))
Håkon
was
glad he seemed to enjoy the mere sight of it. He picked up his fork and blended the bits of fish with the sauce before taking a bite.
(( Natta~ =w= ))
hummed quietly but happily. He was enjoying his food quite a bit, but he was curious at what the others tasted like...
kept his eyes downcast as he ate, lost in thought.
smirks as he swallowed the bit of meat in his mouth. "How is yer dinner?"
blinked and glanced up at him. ".. 'S good."
nods as he leaned over a bit. "Can I have a taste~?" ((I have no idea how many of these I've sent. ))
stared at him for a few short moments before looking back down at his food. "I guess." He speared a bit of fish on his fork and brought it_
to the others lips, a faint colour in his cheeks.
(( x) No worries, I just received one. ))
smirks as he noticed that and leaned more forward to bite the food off the fork, lingering a tad longer than normal so he could stare at
the other, before pulling away and eating.
's blush grew slightly, and he looked down at the plate as he put the fork back down on it. "That was unnecessary..." He mumbled, though_
.. Not really complaining.
((b4ginjefkwsl I didn't get an update. And I'm about to go to bed. >~< ))
smirks and licks his lips after. "Nej. But it's good." He went back to eating his steak happily.
((God nat~ ))
(( Natta~ ))
shakes his head and continues eating his food.
smirks and licks his lips after. "Nej. But it's good." He went back to eating his steak happily.
's blush grew slightly, and he looked down at the plate as he put the fork back down on it. "That was unnecessary..." He mumbled, though_
(( Natta~ ))
((.... Plurk is bein' evil again. It did what Dorthe and I have been faced with.))
(( stares ... What is this sorcery. ))
(SEE. So. Uh. WTF do I reply to? ))
(( 'shakes his head and continues eating his food.' ))
smiles before humming a bit. "Wanna bit of mine?"
hesitates a moment, then nods and looks back up at him, not a sign of uncertainty. "That should be fair."
cut off a nice piece of steak for him before leaning over a bit and holding the fork towards him.
leans slightly forward, steadying the fork by gently gripping the others hand as he bites lightly down on the piece of steak. His fingers_
stays on his hand a few seconds longer than neccessary before he leans back in his chair, chewing on the meat.
couldn't help but smile and blush at that. He loved simple little details like that...
nearly smiles back, the corner of his mouth twitching a little. He nods, approving of the steak, after having eaten his bite.
nearly smiles back, the corner of his mouth twitching a little. He nods, approving of the steak, after having eaten his bite.
blushes more at seeing him 'smile'. It always made him happy to know he could do that to him... He was good at making people smile, but it
made him feel different when it was people he really cared about.
sips some more of his wine as he simply watches him. He was sort of amazed that he' made him blush like that by, what, a touch? At least,_
he figures, it was a good sign.
((Sorry for the double post, Plurk is derping at a max today))
didn't blush normally... but he kind of had his hopes up for this night. And was kind of giddy happy.
nearly smiles back, the corner of his mouth twitching a little. He nods, approving of the steak, after having eaten his bite.
((... Twitches ))
(( sobs ))
hums as he puts his glass down on the table, soon finishing the last of his meal.
took a little more time, actually having manners and being some what graceful in his actions. He finished soon after though, and finished
off his wine happily, licking his lips after everything. "That was good..."
watches him blankly, both impressed and bemused by how he acted. He blinks and looks up to his eyes. "'m glad y'liked it."
smirks back at him. When he took things seriously, he could be serious. Even if it was slightly uncomfortable.
Håkon
thinks
he can relax more if he wants to. He drank the last of the wine and looked over to him. "D'you want dessert?"
nods. "Of course. Who do ye think I am~?" He loved dessert... even if it wasn't up to his standards.
hums and picks the dessert menu up from between the salt and pepper. "Just the biggest sweet tooth 'round. Here you are."
smiles and takes it, humming as he looked through things. So much to choose from... but he was eying a slice of chocolate cake.
sat back in his seat and pushed his plate slightly to the side for the waiter to take.
hums and gave his order to the waiter when he came back. He was looking forward to his dessert now~
ordered another glass of wine. It had little alcohol in it so it would be fine.
leaned on the table and watched him.
tapped the table lightly with his fingers, looking in that direction without really focusing.
smiles as he took in the details of his eyes. And mouth. And nose... and everything.
splays his fingers out on the table, watching them absently before noticing the eyes on him. He looks up slowly, raising an eyebrow at him.
smirks. "Ye look delicious. Just sayin'."
snorts and looks off to the side, resting his cheek in his hand and blushing faintly. "Y'keep to your cake for now."
smiles a little more. "For now." He said lowly as the cake came and he started to nibble on it.
didn't say anything to that, taking a sip of his wine instead.
just hummed happily, before getting some of the cake on his fork and holding it out for the other. "Norge~"
put the glass down and looked up at him again, soon moving his gaze to the fork.
smiles and moves it closer. "Have a taste..."
rolls his eyes but gives in, seeing as it didn't really hurt - and cake was normally good. He leant a bit forward and ate the offered piece_
off the fork, sitting back and humming quietly after. He would have refused to do that hadn't they been in mostly privacy.
smiles and continues to eat some more. "Ye like it?"
nods lightly and drinks up his wine. "Not bad."
smirks and finishes the cake, licking his lips after. He was happy...
hummed idly as he pushed the empty glass away. "Want to stay here longer?"
shrugs. "What would we talk about?"
thought that was some question to ask him of all people. He nods a bit. "Right, let me pay then 'n we'll find somethin' else to do."
nods at that, smiling a bit. "Kay."
Håkon
was
on his way up when the waiter returned for the plate and glass. He found his wallet and handed him a few 100kr bills before the waiter left
with a smile.
hums and smiled a bit before getting up and walking with the other to go outside. He thought tonight had gone well so far.
put his hands in his pockets as he replaced the wallet back in one of them, and followed him out on the street.
loosely put an arm around his waist when they were out.
glanced around discreetly, relaxing more to the touch when he didn't see too many people.
knew he didn't like public affection much, but seriously, to him this was almost nothing.
had somehow figured that out a very long time ago. He was fine like this for now.
Søren
was
glad~ Because he wasn't going to stop.
got them moving down the street at a calm pace. "Somethin' special y'want to do now?"
shrugs. "Do ye count?"
bumps his hip in the others side, hands still in his pockets. "Idi-" He caught himself and shook his head. "Nei."
hums. "Then nej." He smirked as he noticed the other catch himself.
shrugs and leans a bit on him as they walk.
smiles at that and held him a bit closer as they walked."
hums quietly, eyes wandering idly along the neatly-laid stone road.
watched him, smiling a bit. He liked just walking with him.
notices a faint, tiny source of light a few metres ahead. He frowns lightly, but doesn't recognise it quite yet.
didn't notice it. He was too distracted looking around at the stars.
stared at it as they got closer to the weak light. He moved away from the other and gently picked up the source soon after.
blinks and looks over to him, watching what he was doing before getting closer. "What's that?" He tried to peek at his hands.
clenched his jaw shut. He opened his hands slightly to reveal a terribly shivering fairy.
frowns instantly at that. "What's wrong with it...?" He didn't know much about fairies. Just that he always saw them with Norge.
"... It's sick.." He muttered and lifted it's tiny hand with his little finger, getting no response from the creature.
frowns and got in closer. "How do they get sick...? Aren't they like, immune to sickness?"
glances around, then back at the pained fairy. "Allergic to too much iron. They normally avoid staying near it too long..."
nods and looked at it closer. He didn't want to touch it... he felt if it did it'd die..
brushed a thumb carefully over its back to still its trembling wings, covering it with his hand after. "We've got to help it.."
frowns and nods. "Ja, let's get it home as soon as possible..."
turns and holds the feeble creature out for the other to hold. "Here, you've got to hold it. Be careful."
makes a small sound. "Why do I have to hold it?!"
frowns and lowers his voice, wary of the people walking by. "'Cause if I hold it much longer my magic'll start affectin' it, which's bad."_
He didn't have time for a more detailed explanation.
nods and carefully took it, making sure it was supported carefully in his hand. He covered it with his other and kept it close to him. It
felt way too limp for his liking... and cold.
Håkon
was
relieved he helped, and started leading the way back to his own home.
followed right beside him, trying to keep the poor creature warm...
figures he's doing a good enough job at it as anyone. He followed the quickest path back to his house.
felt a little pressured, but didn't mind it. He felt so bad for the fairy. As long as it didn't die in his hands, he'd be happy.
didn't think it would die, but it was better not to risk it. He unlocked his front door once they'd reached his house. "Place her in one of
the potted plants." He instructed.
nods and went to put her in one, carefully putting her in the soft soil.
closed the door stepped out of his shoes, disappearing into the kitchen while the fairy started moving slightly.
kept glued to the plant, watching her.
/ The fairy didn't open it's eyes yet, but her fingers curdled weakly onto tiny chunks of soil, which seemed to make her a bit stronger.
(( curled* ))
smiles faintly at that. He still kept close, wondering if she was warm enough...
had managed to find some imported blueberries in his freezer, waiting for them to heat up enough for her to eat.
just kept an eye on her, examining her closely. He hadn't seen a fairy upclose like this before...
/ The magical creature had a faint blue glow covering her. She scratched at the soil for comfort, not saying a word yet.
Søren
was
amazed by this really. He hadn't seen anything like this before.
returned to the living room with a few blueberries, halting briefly by the doorway to watch the pair. He walked over to them and put one
of the berries in the Danes hand. "Give it to her."
blinks. "How? Just... hold it in front of her face?"
nods. "Pretty much."
does just that, keeping it just from touching her head. He was glad he had steady hands for this.
watches as the little fairy steadies herself up to an almost sitting position, grabbing onto the berry and hugging it close.
smiles a little and kept supporting it a bit. "Good girl..." He liked how she looked a bit better.
observed them both silently. The fairy's wings fluttered lightly once she'd managed to swallow a few small bites of the blueberry.
smiles more. "There ye go... do ye feel better now...?"
/ The fairy concentrated on eating for a little while longer, humming all the time. She smiled up at him, looking considerably better and_
nodded.
wiggles a bit, letting for on the blueberry fully and just sat watching her. "Good~!"
kept quiet as he watched them fondly, nearly smiling. The fairy finished her blueberry and sat up happily, smiling brightly at the Dane. _
~"Thank you loads!"~
smiles more and nods. "Ye're welcome~ Ye gotta thank Norge too though, he's the one that found ye..."
nods to the fairy as she gives him her thanks, too. She turns back to Denmark, wings fluttering comfortably behind her. ~"You're a very kind
man. I'm glad you helped me."~
chuckles a bit. "Well, I only did what he told me to do... I barely know anythin' 'bout fairies..."
/ The fairy smiles softly up at him and shrugs a little. ~"Still. Most people don't even care enough to see us."~
pouts. "That's not nice. Ye guys are adorable!" He smiled at her happily. He was really glad she was better.
leans on the wall beside the pair, thinking to himself. The fairy laughed gleefully and stretched her arms out towards the taller man.
blinks and smiles before holding out his hand to her.
watched as the little fairy fluttered her wings as she leapt up to the offered hand, crawling over to settle in the middle of his palm.
laughs and holds her close. "Look Norge, she's so cute and small~"
nods in agreement, listening to the happy giggles of the fairy. "It seems to approve of you, too,"
chuckles and nods as he kept looking at her. "What's yer name...?"
/ The fairy looks puzzled and glances over to Norway. "He means what name you've picked up." He explained. She smiled and looked over at the
other again. ~"Ooh! Nina, then!"~
smiles. "Nina... that's a nice name~"
/ The fairy giggle and shifts her tiny feet excitedly. ~"I like how you say it!"~
chuckles. "Well, that's good then." He stroked her hair lightly.
watched the two quietly for a few long moments longer before he had decided. "She only needs to be fed once in a while. It sleeps best in
something resembling a nest, and she needs fresh air." He hummed. "Ah, 'n keep her far from iron."
blinks a few times and looks to him. "Why can't we just put her back near where we found her...? She must have a home and family
and friends..."
smiles slightly at that. "'Cause she's stayin' with you." The fairy perked up and grinned. ~"Yes! Can I, can I please?"~ She clasped her
hands together and pouted up at him. ~"My friends didn't try to find me, so they won't mind! And I don't!"~
frowns a little at that before smiling and holding her close. "Sure... I'll take care of ye..."
nods. "Y'better. None of that alcohol project of yours on her." The fairy just beamed happily and hugged his finger tight.
chuckles and held her close. "Dun worry. I'll be good to her. She'll only drink when I drink."
raises an eyebrow slightly at that. "... Well, if that isn't reassurin'.."
smiles and wiggles a bit. "Baw~ She's so cute~!"
hums, watching the fairy giggle and hugging the others fingers. ".. Sorry for the abrupt end to that date." He said, as he just remembered.
chuckles and shakes his head, looking over to him. "Don't worry 'bout it. It was great... and ye helped me get another friend~"
blushes lightly, though crossing his arms and nodding. "Vær så god.."
smiles and sways a bit with his new friend. "Can we stay the night, Norge?"
blinks once, not used to actually being asked permission. He shrugs and picks up the last blueberry for himself. "Sure, why not."
smiles more and leaned over to hug him, being careful of Nina. "Tak, Nor~"
noticed the fairy hover over to sit on the others shoulder, then paid attention to the Dane again. He returned the hug for a moment. "Mhm.."
gets up soon after. "What kinda nest does she need specifically? Like, can it be made of pillows?"
~"Oh, I like leaves! Or moss. Though, I haven't tried these.. pillows things before.."~ She pondered. He shrugged, "A pillow should do it.
Not too warm, though."
nods and smiles before getting up to get her little sleeping area ready.
brushes the potted plant free of fairy dust, then went to put the rest of the blueberries back where he'd found them.
hums as he made her a little pillow nest in the guest room, hoping she'd like it when they went to bed.
shrugged of his dress jacket and draped it over a chair for now, going to sit on the couch after. Nina stayed in the living-room.
came back down a bit later and sat beside Nor. "There, all done~ Hopefully ye like it."
/ The little fairy flew over to sit on the others knee once he'd sat down. She smiled, ~"I will! You're good at taking care of me!"~
smiles and plays with her a bit, still being careful. "Just because ye're so small and cute~"
picks up a magazine from the coffee table, idly going through it. She giggled and poked his fingers. ~"Oh, but what if I was big and scary,
would you still help me?"~
smiles. "If ye were in need of help, and hadn't hurt anyone I care for, then of course..."
just turned another page, partly following the conversation beside him. Nina wiggled happily there she sat, smiling brightly. ~"Yay!"~
chuckles and swayed with her. "Are ye tired at all?"
/ She hums, flicking her wings idly. ~"Whenever you are!"~
chuckles and looks to Nor. "Are ye tired, Nor?"
glances up from the magazine. ".. Y'know, if y'want to go to bed y'can just say so."
shakes his head. "I dun wanna sleep before ye..."
shrugs and put the magazine on the coffee table. "Suit yourself."
rolls his eyes. "He's no fun, is he Nina?"
/ The fairy giggles, amused. ~"Not at all!"~
smiles. "S'a good thing ye're with me then! I'm tons of fun, and like to play, and bake, and do stuff!:
moves quietly off the couch and out to the kitchen. ~"Ooh, that sounds really, really ni- "~ She was cut off by a barely audible yawn.
almost flailed. Cute. "Let's get yer cute little fairy butt upstairs to sleep."
watched them from the doorway to the kitchen, a cup of coffee in hand. She smiled, giggling softly and hugged his thumb. ~"Okay.."~
got up slowly and made his way to the guest room. "Guess ye're not goin' to bed yet, Nor?"
shook his head. "Not quite yet. Y'two go ahead though, I won't be long.."
nods and smiles a bit before going to the guest room and showing Nina the little pillow nest he made for her.
/ She perked up at the sight of what seemed a very comfortable sleeping spot, leaning over his fingers to get a better peek. ~"Aah, that
looks just lovely..!"~
smiles and carefully put her down in the middle then crouched to be more eye level with her. "Well, what do ye think? Think ye can
live with pillows and blankets?"
/ The fairy smiled and pressed her face into his finger, before she plumped down onto the pillow. She nodded, giggling. ~"Yes, kind man!"~
smiles and sat on the bed. "If ye need anythin' durin' the night, ye can just wake me up. Okay?"
locked the doors leading outside for the night, having finished his coffee. Nina rolled over on her stomack, stretching her arms out and
yawning softly. ~"Alright.."~
smiles and got comfy in the bed, watching her quietly after.
wandered around his home for a little while before finding the others, hands in his pockets as he looked at the two. "Y'sleepin' in here
tonight?" He mumbled, not wanting to wake the little creature.
nods faintly. "Ja... I wanna keep an eye on her..." He smirked and turned a bit to look at him. "And, I've not fully
forgiven ye enough for fun in bed."
stares coldly at him for a long, dragging moment. He huffs quietly and switches the lights off. "Your loss. God natt." He then closes the
door to the guest room and leaves for his own room.
chuckles a bit before laying down fully and watching over the fairy.
/ Nina was now glowing stronger, though not enough to disturb his eventual sleep. She slept peacefully, not making a single sound.
smiles and closed his eyes, starting to sleep after. He was tired, and had had a great day with Nor.
stayed awake for a while longer, sitting on his bed as he thought about the day's events, before eventually going to sleep.
really did enjoy his time out. He thought Norge was really cute today...
wasn't sure if he was happy with it, seeing as he somehow wasn't forgiven yet. He did his best not to let it bother him, though, and slept
somewhat peacefully.
Søren
was
just really hurt by it. He'd forgive him soon enough though. He could never stay mad at Nor, and he tried hard. And got him a friend~
would check up on her in the future, making sure she didn't become a drunken wretch. He doubted it, but better safe than
sorry.
would be totally nice to her! He wouldn't intentionally get her drunk.
... hoped that he'd show responsibility, at least.
would... he always treated friends well. And she was so fragile looking that he would make sure to be careful.
Håkon
was
content with that for now, then.
would be very careful with her... he swore.
