Netherlands
was
out in the middle of Amsterdam, sketching the landscapes.
peered over his shoulder with a faint smile. " That looks good."
continued to sketch without loosing motion. "Dank u." He had missed drawing as of late... He found he did it more in winter than summer, where he painted more then.
nods as she carefully place a cup of coffee next to him before adjusting her scarf. " Home gets to quiet for my liking when no one is there." She stated quietly, coughing a bit.
frowned a little and finished off a line as he rested the sketchbook on his lap. "You still feeling sick?" He took a sip from the coffee lightly.
nods to that as she sat down next to him, leaning against him quietly as she wrapped her hands around her own cup of coffee. " ...Ja."
undid his coat and wrapped a side of it around her. "You should be inside then..."
shook her head as she looked at him. " It's better for me around you." She tugged at her sleeve a bit to cover up her poorly bandaged hand.
to be* ((ergh forgetting words))
glanced down. "What did you do now?"
frowned. " It was an accident." She didn't want to tell him she nearly lost control of her body and had to stab her hand to stop herself.
wondered how that could happen...
couldn't remember much of it when she woke up. She was just worn out and didn't want to be alone.
sighed and packed up. "I can't trust you to be alone at all, can I..."
shook her head again. " Sorry..." She didn't want to end up in a bad accident.
didn't either. He should have known not to leave her alone. He got everything packed up and finished off the coffee. "Ready to go home?"
shifted as she got up and sipped her coffee quietly. " Yeah."
helped her and gathered everything before starting to walk home.
looked over to him, "Is there anything you want for dinner?"
shrugs. "I'll make some soup."
smiles at that, "That sounds nice."
nodded. He was sure they'd have enough things at home to cook.
opened the door for him when they arrived home before entering.
walked in and put his drawing things away, going to go work on dinner after.
went upstairs to clean up her room in the meantime.
hoped she'd be okay.
would be. She had left it in a bit of a mess earlier.
just quietly cooked then, taking his time.
shifted before freezing in her step, blanking out. She slowly went over to her desk afterwards.
finished up dinner not long after and went to get her.
wasn't in control of what she was doing anymore when she turned off the safety of her gun and fired it at her head. She had really lost it then.
had just opened the door to her room when she did that, witnessing everything. All his body let him do was stare.
collapsed onto the ground promptly after the shot went off with a thud. Her room was still a mess as if a fight occurred as her blood started to pool on the ground.
had no idea about anything that was happening. He started coming back to his senses and ran over to her, holding her head. "D-Dorthe?"
Dorthe
was
completely limp from the injury, even dead possibly. There was a faint laughter in the background at the occurrence.
growled, trying to ignore the laughing as he held her close. He bit his lip hard enough to split it, and tried to keep his shaking to a minimum.He knew she'd be back in a day or so, but he was upset at himself.
stayed in place with a blank look on her face. Her eyes were still slightly open showing no signs of life in them.
Netherlands
was
frustrated, really. He had no idea why she did this, and why it was happening, or what he had done.
had stopped bleeding after a while as she started to grow cold. Even though she might return in a day or so because of her status, she still had a few problems mentally.
wanted to know what was wrong with her. He wanted to help... He got some composure and brought her to her bed, laying her down and pulling the covers up on her. He had forgotten about dinner.
might have been possessed by something which caused her to hallucinated and lose complete control of herself. Her body was no longer alive and there was still a bullet lodged in her temple.
stayed with her and worked at getting the bullet out, as cleanly as he could. He hated how he had to do this to his wife..
still move or budge instead, her blood simply stained the blankets and pillow adding more to the mess.
just took care of her as best he could. He eventually got the bullet out and put it on the night table.
twitched only very faintly but that was as much reaction or movement that came from her. Heimdell curiously peered into the room before growling at the sight when he went over to the male's side.
just stared at her, waiting and depressed. He didn't plan on leaving her side.
|Heimdall pawed at him, wanting to know what happened to his mor.
just glanced over to the bullet before taking Dorthe's hand and squeezed it.
's hand was limp and icy cold. There did seem to be newly form callouses as if she had been working on a sewing project lately.
wondered why she kept so much from him...
, in truth wanted to make a surprise for him but she wasn't aware of how much of a toll it took on her.
wondered what she could be doing that'd be so tolling on her..
might have been sewing, and doing paperwork and also going out to different places to figure out how to make a nice surprise for him. She hadn't been sleeping much lately.
didn't think it was worth all this...
didn't know it would turn out like this at all.
wanted to know where it went wrong.
Dorthe
has
lost track a long time ago...
hoped she'd tell him everything once she was back.
might not be back for a while...
would still wait for her.
didn't want to disappoint him.
just stroked her hair and waited. He didn't move much besides that... He didn't care how long he had to wait.
would stay there despite her would heal up in a few days or so. The dragon brought water to him once in a while, watching as well.
idly sipped it, not taking in much. He was still feeling guilty.
|The dragon nudged her once in a while wanting to warm her up since she was so cold.
didn't want him burning her... He knew she'd be warm again soon enough. He knew the blanket didn't help much, but it's better than nothing.
|Heimdall whined quietly as he frowned. He wanted her mor to be awake.
did too... He just continue to stroke her hair and kiss her head.
twitched slightly but didn't move again after that
didn't act from that, knowing she wasn't back yet.
wouldn't return for quite some time especially since her body had turned rigid after a while. Heimdall yawned and curled up close to him for warmth seeing as it was getting really late.
lightly put his hand over the dragon, trying to comfort it.
|Heimdall whimpered faintly. He had been seeing his mor act more strangely recently but he didn't think it would end up like this.
wondered if he knew anything about this...
|The dragon didn't have a single clue but tried to steer her out of danger whenever she blanked out.
sighed and just kept waiting, looking worn after a few days or so.
did not change a single bit.She was still in her lifeless state, unmoving and yet showed no signs of decay. Heimdall on the other hand was starting to get worried as he would often fetching things for the male.
didn't care about much... He only ever left her side for the bathroom, and only drank some water once in a while.
Dorthe
was
always in the same spot, without a sign of her waking up at all. The air in the room however seemed thicker and warmer as if trying to lull him to sleep.
couldn't. He was too worrie.d
|Heimdall tried to move around a lot but fell into a deep sleep soon after in the other's lap as if a spell was cast. There was a faint voice telling him to sleep.
frowned when he looked down at the dragon. He just petted him lightly and kept looking at Dorthe. He didn't want to sleep...
wasn't going anywhere like the past few days. Although she twitched faintly during very rare moments, there was absolutely no sign or way for her to move or leave.
squeezed her hand a bit when he saw her twitch, but just kept sighing.
's hand was completely rigid but without warning she gripped onto his hand, digging her nails trying to harm him despite the rest of her not breathing or moving.
hissed and looked at her. "Dorthe...?"
's grip only grew stronger, practically trying to break his hand though there was still no other movement or breathing from him as if she was just being controlled like a puppet.
cursed and pulled his hand away. He knew it wasn't Dorthe and he looked around, growling. "Stop this!"
Dorthe
was
pulled along slightly but more so like a ragdoll according to the motion of his hand. There was a faint laughter that could be heard as her body was moving away from him as if someone was dragging her away.
shot up and grabbed her, putting his arms around her tightly.
just kept being dragged along by some unseen force towards the door.
held her tighter and tried to stop her from leaving the room.
|Heimdall, woken up from the noise breathed fire at the invisible force severing that bond from the thing that was trying to control her. However, it caused a bit of a mishap as his mor was engulfed in a light.
frowned and stared at her, not knowing how to help.
|Heimdall rubbed his eyes as he stared at the child in his far's arms. It looked a lot like his mor and she was wearing that necklace. The dragon nudged her lightly, surprised to find her warm and sleeping.
... just stared at her.
continued to sleep soundly, shifting a bit as Heimdall curled up close to her immediately. The dragon knew it was his mor who needed a bit of time to grow up a little.
didn't understand how this always happened...
would know for she was a child. It was possibly a way for her to replace herself if her body went through anything too traumatic. Heimdall had a feeling she would be back to her old adult self in a few days.
hoped so... He wasn't good at taking care of kids.
...would agree considering the last time he locked her up in a cage with Miss Rabbit.
would hope the dragon could help.
|Heimdall just seemed too happy that his mor was back now to even think of anything else. Though he didn't know his mor was a bit troublesome as a child.
just brought her to bed and tucked her in. He wanted her to rest.
stubbornly kicked the blankets away in a matter of moments as she clung to the dragon for something warm instead. Old habits die hard.
covered her up again.
moved and kicked them away again.
shook his head and just watched over her.
continued sleeping, murmuring his name very softly in one instance.
barely caught it, he was too lost already.
Dorthe
was
still herself...sort of. She was just more prone to crying and such because she was reverted back to a child form of herself.
didn't know how this would be...
Dorthe
was
starting to wake up slowly as she was growing cold.
covered her lightly with the blankets so she'd stay warm.
Dorthe
was
still fussy about them as she woke up and shiftedo ut of them before staring at him with large eyes.
Netherlands
was
glad she was back, but it still didn't shake him from his initial emotionlessness. "Hey."
looked absolutely frightened on the other hand as she bit her lip.
raised his brow, wondering what was wrong.
frowned at that more, "...I'm s-sorry." She did look like she was about to cry.
shakes his head. "For what?"
seemed so confused as she bit her lip more. She was trying to remember what had happened which was causing her to stress herself again.
rubbed her back lightly, wanting her to keep calm.
made a pained sound as she held her head, trying hard not to cry but she still ended up being unable to stop the tears from falling onto her cheeks. "...It hurts."
continued to rub her back. "What does?"
curled up more, " M-my head." She choked out as she whimpered painfully. " I heard voices again."
frowned as he watched her. He didn't know how to help.
started to sob quietly from the pain as Heimdall noticed that she was getting abnormally cold again and tried to curl up close to keep her warm.
pulled the blankets around them after he pulled her into his lap.
Dorthe
was
trying hard to endure the pain as she clung onto him. She seemed like she was able to get some control back though it was exhausting to her, especially since she hadn't eating for a long time.
wanted to warm her up before getting her something to eat. He didn't want to leave her alone...
stopped crying after a while and continued to cling onto him as she hiccuped. She would follow him where ever he went.
just got up and carried her downstairs. He started making some soup for her.
stuck rather close to him through the entire way, not wanting to let go. She was scare of being taken away since she couldn't fend for herself.
just kept her in his arms and started cooking, not wanting to let her go.
tried to steady things for him to make it easier to cook. She knew it wasn't going to be a simple task to cook with one hand.
could manage... he could make the sacrifice.
still wanted to do something due to all the trouble she had caused even if she couldn't remember much of it.
just wanted her to get back to normal right now.
Dorthe
was
trying her hardest but she couldn't exactly rush these things even if she wanted to...
knew that... He finished up the food and brought it over to the table, putting her in his lap.
looks up to him before looking back at the food. She couldn't exactly reach the table with her short arms.
got her a spoon full and held it towards her mouth.
chomped down on it almost immediately as she was starving. If she had to feed herself...it would be messy.
continued to help her, wanting to eat as much as she wanted.
stopped after a while as she grew full and pushed it up towards him. " Eat." Knowing him, he probably wouldn't have eaten for days...
shook his head a little, pushing it away. "I'm fine... What do you want to do?"
looked upset as she shook her head. "...Not until you eat first." She didn't want him to neglect himself.
didn't have any appetite...
seemed be more distressed seeing that as her lip started to wobble a bit. She knew this was all her fault.
put his finger on her lip. "Nee."
bit her lip and nodded weakly as she looked even more upset.
hugged her and sighed. "It's okay..."
sniffled quietly as she felt bad about it. She wanted him to take care of himself too because she was scare of things hurting him.
wouldn't get hurt, he wasn't nearly as klutzy as her.
would still worry. She wanted him to have the strength to fight if the situation arises. She just felt worse and worse and tried hard not to cry again.
hugged her tightly against his chest. "Shh... calm down."
tried to take deep breaths as she sniffled. She was starting to feel ill again because of how exhausting it was.
sighed. "You should sleep..."
shook her head as she held onto him. "...I want to stay with you."
"I'll come with you..." He hadn't slept in days either.
looks to him and then what was left of the soup. "...At least take a bite." She felt like she was acting selfishly.
did, for her sake.
seemed a bit relieved to see that. Heimdall who was nearby seemed glad too.
picked her up and headed upstairs after
clung onto him, not showing a sign of letting go ever.
didn't mind right now. He got to the room and got under the covers, sighing as he held her close.
practically hid herself in his chest as she shifted. She only felt safe in his arms.
looked down at her and sighed, trying to protect her.
started to chew on his shirt to try to ease her nerves.
let her, and just rubbed her back to try and calm her down.
Dorthe
was
still jittery but stayed as still as she could. She was starting to nod off slowly.
wanted her to relax and be calm.
had trouble as she shifted feeling an odd tingling sensation on her ankle. There was an old Norse rune there that wasn't there before.
wondered why...
didn't know but it was starting to sting which made her start to shift uncomfortably again.
((urgh double post))
lightly ran his hand down her leg and touched the mark lightly.
tensed a bit as she squeaked but she seemed a bit surprised when the stinging feeling stopped. Instead the runes appeared on his wrist instead.
raised his brow as he examined them closely.
shifted a bit to read them before she stared. "...It's a curse."
huffed. "Why?"
frowned as she looked frightened again. " I-I don't know...but you'll t-turn into a kid too..." She bit her lip again.
glared. "I'm not turning into a child."
cringed as she whimpered faintly, her lip shaking again looking like she was going to cry.
kissed her forehead. "Don't worry..."
curled up more as she sniffled. She knew this was hurt fault and it wouldn't have happened to him if she didn't draw attention to it.
would try not to become a child.
didn't know how to stop it as she was starting to feel lighted headed and hyperventilate a bit as she tried hard not to cry. She was really a cry baby as a child.
could tell. He just put his finger over her mouth. "Calm."
tried to take deep breathes as she slowly settled down again. She was obedient which might have made things easier for him.
felt that it did. He just wanted her to sleep.
Dorthe
was
starting to nod off again as she curled up close to him.
held her tightly against his chest.
eventually fell asleep after a while as she held onto him.
kissed the top of her head and just kept her as calm as he could.
slept quietly without another word after.
Netherlands
was
still not able to fall asleep yet...
continued to stay asleep and not move as much seeing she felt self.
safe*
Netherlands
was
glad that she was feeling safe. He loved her after all...
mumbled his name quietly in her sleep as she fidgeted.
rubbed her back as she slept.
Dorthe
was
just happy that he was there with her now. She did seem a little bit more mature but that was about it.
Netherlands
was
at least glad for that. He still couldn't shake off the whole ordeal though.
breathed on him lightly as she stopped moving after a while. She did wish for him to rest too...
Netherlands
was
resting kind of...
knew he probably wouldn't have slept once through out the events that happened which worried her.
hadn't... he didn't think he could.
...wanted to sleep now at the very least since she was safe.
wanted her to sleep too.
Dorthe
was
starting to have a put of trouble since she was worrying about him.
tried to calm her down more.
shifted more as she was starting to get fussy and stressed out again even without realizing it.
rested his hand on her cheek. "Dorthe, relax. And try to sleep."
shook her head stubbornly as she was starting to shift more in a restless manner.
sighs. "Please, for me..."
made a sound as she fidgeted more in her sleep with the mark on her ankle and his wrist starting to glow. At this rate, the curse was sure to take place.
tried to will it not to. He had to stay grown to help her.
kept moving around regardless, clearly unable to settle down as she was stressing herself out again from blaming herself.
sighed. "Please, for once just listen to me."
made a sound as she whimpered quietly, shaking a bit. The runes were glowing more and more as she couldn't find a way to calm down.
frowned more and held her against his chest so she could hear his heart beat.
started to calm down but only very slightly. She was already quite stressed out by then that the curse was taking place.
didn't want her to stress out over it, there was no reason for her to.
just felt absolutely like it was her fault that all these problems were thrown at him and that she couldn't do anything about it.
knew he signed up for a lot when he got with her. It was his burden to bare as well.
shifted as she eventually calmed down again but it might have been a little too late as the curse was starting to happen.
Netherlands
was
just worried about getting her to calm down, not caring about himself.
fell back asleep, breathing quietly in the meantime. There didn't seem to be any sign of restlessness now.
Netherlands
was
thankful for that, and just rested his eyes for a bit. He was going to stay awake in case she woke in a fright or something.
seemed calm enough that she wasn't going to stir for a while.
still just wanted to make sure. He didn't even realise what was happening to him.
nuzzled against his chest quietly. She did grow up a bit more, looking as if in her teens now.
noticed that, and was glad for it. Even if it was a little awkward, he still kept her against his chest.
wrapped her arms around him after a while, pulling him as close to her as possible.
breathed quietly, opening his eyes faintly as he looked over her.
Dorthe
was
still asleep as she did seem a bit older and less prone to crying.
Netherlands
was
some what thankful for that. He didn't like seeing kids cry.
Dorthe
was
starting to stir again as she made a faint sound. She was still quite sleepy.
shifted a bit himself, sighing quietly. He felt weird.
rubbed her eyes as she looked down to him and stared.
Netherlands
was
blankly staring, his mind sort of shut off.
smiled sheepishly as she snuggled him. He looked adorable....
made a quiet sound and lightly pushed away. He didn't understand why he seemed to be smothered now...
frowned as she shifted away after looking rejected. She just wanted to show her affection for him.
didn't mean to act like he rejected her, he just didn't understand how she seemed bigger...
...was always older than him. Actually... "Did you get smaller?" She rubbed her eyes.
shook his head faintly, not thinking it over. He hadn't seen himself in a few days let alone hours.
seemed very confused as she shifted uncomfortably after and looked away.
just curled back against her, sighing quietly to himself.
seemed unsure as she had never really seen him as a teen. She felt like she was growing upset but tried to avoid showing it.
wondered why she'd be upset..
didn't mean to have him be turned into a child.
didn't care right now... he might when he was more conscious, but for now he just wanted her to be safe.
did feel safe with him. She sat up after since she was more awake.
mumbled quietly before sitting up slowly himself. His head was hurting...
looked over to him. " Are you okay?" She looked worried.
looked to her and nodded. "Ja, why?"
frowned as she watched him, "...I'm only wondering." More so worried in actual fact.
nodded and rubbed his eyes before going to get off the bed for some water. When he tried to touch down though and couldn't, he just fell flat on his face. When did he get so short...?
scrambled to help him up as she hopped off the bed with ease. "...Are you hurt?" She asked in a worried tone after pulling him back to his feet.
shook his head a little, rubbing his nose with slightly watery eyes. "N-nee..." He looked down at himself and frowned. "When did this happen...?"
shook her head as she used her sleeves to wipe his eyes. " I don't know..."
made a quiet sound, not liking being treated as a child. "I see..." He unintentionally pouted, his cheeks puffing out a little."
tried exceptionally hard not to want to smother him as she went to fix the blankets on the bed. Her room was such a mess....
rubbed his eyes a bit with his oversized sleeves and looked around. "I want to know what happened..."
looked at him blankly, " What do you mean?"
glanced around. "Your room..."
looked around and nodded slowly. " I lost control of myself...and snapped."
nodded a bit as he looked down and fidgeted with his sleeve.
looked to him after. " Do you want smaller clothes?"
nodded a little. "Do you have some...?"
nods as she went to her closet. She had clothes for boys and gave him a rather cute outfit.
... just sighed and changed into them, not having much of a choice.
went to try to clean up the room instead.
went to go help her, even if he could lift or carry much.
managed most of it as Heimdall helped him out.
still pretended he was his normal hight and could help out as normal.
did most of the work since she was taller and the shelves were higher.
still tried to reach them. Even if all he could manage was be on his tip toes, with a hand against the wall trying to put a book on a shelf much too tall for him to reach.
went over and helped him out before heading back to cleaning up another area.
ran over shortly after to keep helping her.
smiled andd thanked him as everything was finally organized.
sighed after, then headed downstairs to get some water. He was even more thursty now.
followed after him to help him out in the kitchen.
had to take his time getting down the stairs, not liking how short he was. He didn't like this...
sighed and just carried him down. She was worried about him tripping especially aince he didn't have a lot of rest.
made a sound and clutched her shirt, pouting. He liked when he could get down the stairs on his own.
nodded briefly as she sat him on the kitchen counter after and retrieved a glass of water for him.
made a sound as he looked down and brought his feet up onto the counter, holding the water close after.
did say anything as she cleaned up the kitchen a bit. It was odd for her to see him as a child. The closest was from an old painting she saw a while back.
lightly sipped his water. He felt a little awkward being the kid now.
ruffled his hair before handing him some treats. "...Its a bit late but Happy Halloween." She seemed a bit saddened she wasn't able to celebrate it after all even if it wasn't a popular Holiday.
made a small sound before taking the treats. "Happy... Halloween..." He couldn't help but open some and eat them.
went to get some aspirin and water after. She didn't want to seem so depressed around him. She had never missed celebrating it even if she was alone but she figured there was nothing she could about it.
made a quiet sound when he was left alone, on top of the counter. He just curled up on the counter and ate the rest of the treats.
returned not long after as she had grabbed a chair for him in case he wanted to climb down from the counter. She tried to smile more to ease the depressing atmosphere.
carefully lowered himself down onto the chair. He frowned when he looked at her though. "I can go some place to stay if you want space..."
turned her head away almost immediately as she had a rather devastated expression on her face with the look in her eyes more than enough to break anyone's heart. She_
_ simply shook her head and smiled to him after recollecting herself. " I'll be fine but I'll go if you don't want me around."
shakes his head as he pulled at her shirt. "I stayed by your side for days... I'm not going anywhere..."
bit the inside of her cheek as she seemed thankful for that and nodded as she forced another smile. "...Alright then."
didn't want her to force anything. "You should rest more..."
shook her head in response. " I've been sleeping too much lately. You should be the one resting." She shifted the subject, pretending to be happy was really her only way of staying calm.
pulled more at her shirt. "Dorthe should be happy..."
smiled in a wistful manner at that as she looked at him. "...Knowing that your safe makes me more than enough happy."
frowns. "You should be happy regardless..." He still felt guilty for everything that happened before hand.
ruffled his hair lightly and stayed quiet in response as stopped smiling after time. "...Is there anything you want to do in particular?"
shakes his head. He doesn't even remember being a kid, so he had no idea what to do.
looked down to herself and then at him. "...I don't suppose you have bathed for the past few days, ja?"
frowned as he looked down. "Do I smell...?"
nods faintly as she picked him up into her arms as she started to head upstairs. " A little. But then again, so I do."
blushed a little at that, not liking being dirty ever.
knew pretty well as she got to the bathroom and sat him on a stool before preparing the water. Heimdall zipped right in before getting kicked out by her since she didn't want him biting the younger male.
wondered why he'd try to bite him in the first place like this...
knew the dragon would try to mark him or something to prove his supremacy in the house since he wasn't an adult now. She made sure the water was at a good temperature before adding the bubbles.
might try to hide from the dragon until he was an adult again. "When will I change back?"
glanced over to him just as she finished preparing the bath and started to undo her shirt. " In a few days."
watched her before trying to get out of his shirt, having a bit of difficulty...
noticed and helped him out of his clothes prior to removing her own. She bought him over to the bath, stepping in and setting him in first before sitting down. At least she was young enough for this.
still found it awkward though. He just got to cleaning and washing his hair.
didn't see anything awkward as she helped him get clean and making sure none of the soap got into his eyes.
felt a little get there, and just spent some time rubbing it.
hummed softly as her motherly attitude was starting to show more where she was very gentle in helping him. She told him not to rub his eyes or it would get worse.
did it regardless... He was being more stubborn than normal.
frowned prior to kissing his forehead lightly as she held onto his hands. " Listen to me please?" She asked in a gentle tone.
made a sound but stopped, squinting still.
took a small towel and wet it before dabbing along his eyes to provide some relief for him. " Stay still, okay?" She smiled warmly to him as she went to help wash him and prevent anymore discomfort for him.
just listened to her for once, glad his eyes felt better after a bit.
eventually finished getting him all clean and kissed his hands lightly. " Tak." She let him do whatever he wanted as she focused on getting herself clean.
blushed and just played with the bubbles a bit.
kept an eye on him as she got herself cleaned up. She leaned bath to soak up and relax a little.
didn't know why he was having so much fun with the bubbles, but he was enjoying it.
smiled as she watched while staying quiet. He looked really cute...
didn't think so, though he hadn't looked at himself in a while.
figured he could see his reflection from the water. She closed her eyes for a bit after.
Netherlands
was
playing too much with the bubbles and having fun. He let out a few small giggles from it too, being way too amused.
placed a pile of soap suds on his head with a playful smile.
made a small sound before patting the bubbles down.
chuckled faintly as she put more on his head after, being careful to avoid it getting into his eyes.
played with patting it down more. He found this fun.
kept doing it as she found his reaction rather adorable.
continued to play with them, acting more childish than normal.
smiled as she tickled him lightly. She was quite the mother figure actually.
made a sound and started wiggling.
chuckled as she watched and continued to play with him.
splashed her with some water after a bit.
splashed him back lightly as she tried to cover herself.
continued to splash her before slipping and falling into her chest.
jumped a bit but caught him as she looked down to him. "...Are you okay?" She asked in a worried tone.
... nodded and just rested against her.
rubbed his back lightly as she kissed the top of his head. she seemed glad that he was safe, not putting into thought at how much of a view he was getting from this.
Netherlands
was
always safe. It was her he was worried about.
Dorthe
was
be fine as long as she didn't get depressed. She noticed the water started to get cold and got out, bringing him along as she wrapped him up into a towel prior to wrapping a towel around herself.
made a sound and grabby handed for her, not wanting to be away from her.
nods as she picked him up right, keeping him close after putting away the dirty clothes and headed to his room where it was warmer. She wouldn't stray too far from him.
Netherlands
was
glad. He didn't want to be far from her really... He still felt guilty.
went to get some clothes for him in the closet as she held him in her arms. She sat him down on the bed and dried him off after with the towel before getting him dressed.
made a few sounds as she worked, appreciating the help. He wondered if she really enjoyed this..
felt responsible and wanted to make him comfortable at least, making sure not to worry him. She changed into one of his adult shirts after since she didn't have clothes in his room.
played a little with his outfit, frowned a bit. "I'm hungwy..."
blinks and nods as she picked him up after placing a kiss on his forehead. She started heading down to the kitchen to make food for him. " Alright, what do you want to eat?"
shrugged a bit. "Food..."
chuckles, " How about open sandwiches then?" She kept him close as she pulled out the ingredients from the fridge.
nodded and clung to her, not wanting to fall.
brought a chair for him to stand on after so she could work and still have him close by. " Don't touch the knife okay?" She told him as she worked.
nodded but still wanted to help her...
let him help put the ingredients in the bread and decorate it they he wanted it to be.
took his time, using his artistic skills to make it pretty.
smiles as she watched. " It looks nice." She complimented.
nods as he licked his fingers. "Can we eat now..?"
nods in approval as she handed him a napkin and helped him to the table with his plate once she cleaned everything up.
bit into one of the sandwiches, nodding in approval.
smiles before eating as well.
Netherlands
was
enjoying these... though he was thirsty now too.
noticed and went to get some juice for him afterwards.
appreciated it... he could have gotten it himself though.
didn't want him moving around too much or trip...
knew how to walk perfectly fine..
...would let him do what he wanted then.
took the juice regardless and finished up eating... He didn't remember the last time he ate so much.
spaced out a bit as she ate slowly.
frowned as he looked over. "... Sorry."
looked over to him as she ended up forcing a smile again while shaking her head. " Nej, it's fine."
shakes his head. "If you have to force being happy then it's not fine..."
made a weak sound as she looked away, "...I'll be okay."
shakes his head. "It's my fault..." He plopped down in the chair and looked down.
shook her head again despite the pained look on her face as she gently kissed his forehead. " It's not...okay?"
made an annoyed sound and huffed. "It is!" He could feel tears forming in his eyes, which he hated. He never cried as an adult...
shook her head as she wiped away his tears. " Nikolaas, it isn't." She reassured him quietly.
sniffled a bit as he kept looking down. "I-if I walked into your room sooner... or spent more time with you... or anything... this wouldn't have happened..."
pulled him into her lap as she stroked his hair, " It's not your fault." She repeated quietly. " I grew careless..."
cried lightly against her, gripping her as close as he could.
wiped away his tears for him as she frowned. " Don't cry..." She rubbed his back lightly. " It'll stain your pretty face." She kissed his forehead again trying to calm him down in a gentle manner.
shook his head a bit. "Not pretty.."
nods as she leaned down and kissed his tear stained cheeks, " To me you are." She smiled genuinely as she ruffled his hair.
huffed. "I-I'm not pretty... I'm a grown nation..."
chuckles, " You're handsome then. How does that sound?"
... looked away. "Better."
smiled more as she lightly ran her fingers through his hair. " Then what about gorgeous?" She teased him lightly.
huffed. "Nee!"
tilts her head, " Why not? Would you prefer beautiful instead?"
shook his head. "Nee..."
kissed his fingers playfully. " Alluring? Ravishing? Radiant?" She started to list terms away.
blushed. "N-nee! Dorthe... nee."
frowns as she watched him, " Why not?"
"I'm none of those..." He talked quietly against her skin.
sighed as she looked at him. "...To me you are. Why else would I choose you over everyone else, ja?"
... frowned. "So you picked me for looks?"
shook her head as she pointed to where his heart and kissed the top of his head. " There is more to you than just looks you know." She smiled to him after.
blushed before burring his face against her chest.
chuckled and rubbed his back some more after.
just mumbled and pouted against her.
smiled as she watched him. " Feeling tired?"
shakes his head a bit. He hadn't felt tired in a while...
nods, " Do you mind playing with Heimdall for a while then?" She seemed a bit pale.
clung to her. He was still a little nervous of that, and he noticed her paleness. "What's wrong...?"
smiled to him to reasurred him. " I'm just feeling a little tired, that's all."
"Are you sure...?"
nods as despite looking more pale. " Ja, I just need to rest for a bit. That's all."
nodded. "Then I'll rest with you..."
smiled a bit as she kissed his forehead lightly. " Tak." She cleaned up everything else before carrying him upstairs with her.
held onto her shirt as he was carried, resting his head against her.
smiled more as she held him securely in her arms and went to his room before sitting down on the bed and putting him on it. " There."
made a small sound as he was put down and just looked up to her. "You sure you're okay?"
nods as she tucked him in before getting under the blankets, " Ja. I just need a bit of sleep."
pushed the blankets a bit and curled up around her.
kept him close to her as she put her arms around him. " Sorry I'm causing so much trouble for you." She muttered.
shakes his head. "I'm just worried.."
nods slowly as she was growing tired, " Sorry about that then." She didn't want him to worry all the time about her.
couldn't help it. He just stroked her hair as best he could.
reddened slightly, seeing how cute it was. " You should be back to normal in no time." It usually took a day or so for it to go away.
nodded, less worried about that now. He just wasn't use to being short.
Dorthe
was
slowly starting to fall asleep as she nodded off slowly.
watched her closely, wanting to be there in case anything happened.
nuzzled him quietly in a loving fashion before falling asleep finally after muttering his name quietly. She knew he would probably be back to normal by the time she woke up.
smiled a little and just kept stroking her hair... He wanted to help comfort her.
thought that him being company and by her side was already comfort to her.
still felt like he could do more to help her.
thought it was more than enough even if she didn't ask often.
closed his eyes a bit as he focused on her face.
didn't shift or move but rather slept peacefully.
Netherlands
was
thankful for that. He liked seeing her so peaceful.
nuzzled him once in a while mumbling small phrases out of affection. She never wanted to seem clingy or sound lonely so she tried to stay quiet about it.
knew how the Danes were, which was why he always wanted to be near Dorthe.
appreciated that a lot really. She was thankful to be with him now.
never wanted to leave her...
wanted to take his word for it.
would write it on her forehead if that helped.
...didn't want that at all. It would probably make her avoid him for a bit if he was going to put text on her.
wouldn't be able to reach a marker now anyways.
thought he could considering he was a bit larger in her arms for some reason...
would still be nice to her... He didn't want to take away his warmth wither.
pulled him closer as brushed her lip against his scar on his forehead. She always loved how warm he was.
made a quiet sound and just nuzzled into her.
smiled in her sleep though she did wonder if the clothes would be too small for him now that he was bigger.
... did feel rather constricted in them, so he just kind of slipped them off.
shifted a bit without knowing as she gave him room to move.
just shifted against her again once the clothes were gone.
muttered a few things quietly as she pressed her lip against his neck. She did quietly admit that she wanted to spend Halloween with him.
frowned and shivered a bit. He'd not mind being with her...
felt like it was her fault nevertheless. She unintentionally left a mark on his neck and continued sleeping.
thought she was good at doing things in her sleep...
would never notice 9 times out of 10. She was sneaky but didn't know it was her most of the time unless someone told her.
would keep it a secret to her then. He liked what she did most of the time.
would be quite flustered if she found out at all.
thought so, which was why he wanted to keep quiet about it.
Dorthe
was
starting to wake up again as she was feeling a bit better than before.
noticed and stroked her hair a bit. "Hey..."
smiled sheepishly as she kissed his cheek. She was glad to see him normal again.
Netherlands
was
glad for that, even if he hadn't realised it. He just stroked her hair and kept her close.
made a faint sound as she blushed a bit. She missed seeing him.
missed things being normal...
thought it would be eventually.
knew she was one weird person to be with.
didn't think he had any problem though in this case he was the weirder one. "...How come you're naked?"
"I took the kid clothes off... and didn't want to leave your side."
reddened as she tried to keep her eyes off his body. " I see." It was hard enough not to stare at him as a child since he was so cute back then but now it was a totally different story.
didn't notice her trying to not look at him. He just kissed her forehead and stroked her hair. "How do you feel?"
smiles a bit as she nodded. " Better than before."
nodded. "Good... that mkes me happy."
nodded as she just grew preoccupied in his features...
... just looked at her.
lightly ran her fingers along his stomach and up to his chest. " I still think your gorgeous." She admitted quietly.
shivered at that and huffed. "Nee."
frowns at that. " But I'm telling the truth."
"I don't like that word though."
frowned but stayed silent after, looking a little crestfallen.
just thought it was too feminine...
didn't seen him as feminine. She shifted slightly away after seemingly a little rejected by that.
pulled her back against him. "You take things too personally..."
fidgeted quietly, " I can't help it." She was in a vulnerable state and had a tendency to overreact being so emotional.
knew that, and found it a little awkward some times.
bit her lip as she apologized quietly. " Sorry."
sighed. "Just try not to be so emotional about mindless things..."
nodded weakly as she kept her eyes to herself after. She felt like a terrible spouse to him.
wanted her to stop feeling so guilty.
still blamed herself for all of this.
wanted her to stop blaming herself and just be happy...
tried to but her mind always dwell on things that seemed to bother her.
wanted her to be the happy Dane he always knew of...
just had trouble as she was still depressed over missing Halloween.
thought they could have their own Halloween.
wasn't exactly sure how that would work out.
could get her candy... and they could dress up around the house.
Dorthe
was
still a bit skeptical seeing there had to be a lot of work putting up the decorations and cooking everything.
thought if she was that dedicated to it they could do it.
guessed she'll go work on that while he got dressed.
didn't want to get up just yet... he was being lazy.
groped him in response.
made a sound and blushed. "Okay okay."
nods before pulling herself out of bed and going to get her box of decorations.
sighed and went to get dressed before going to help her.
went to the living room and worked on getting the place sorted out before putting up all the decorations she had. She didn't have just one box but rather 5 large ones.
helped decorate the inside of the house, making it look as creepy as he could.
wanted to make it scary too as she smiled faintly, glad everything was slowly coming together.
knew how to make things scary easily. He knew all the tricks of the trade.
left it up to him seeing it was his home.
had tons of decorations... all hand made by him.
had many that were made by him last year and the years before. She figured he would want to reuse them.
liked them, and liked making them.
went to the kitchen to go prepare the sweets and treats. It would take a while to make but she would sale it down considering she wasn't giving them out to children.
had some candy from the store he got for her before hand...
just went onto make some truffles and chocolates. She really put a lot of effort in these things.
knew she did, which was why he gave her free range of the kitchen.
Dorthe
was
more careful and set the treats into the fridge to cool a bit before heading upstairs to get the animals dressed up.
wondered what she had for them.
figured it would be a surprise. She did leave his outfit in his bedroom to change into too.
saw that and sighed before putting it on.
chuckled as Heimdall was the one to dress up like him this year while Miss Rabbit got to be a witch with a cute hat and cape.
walked down a bit after, all dressed up.
went to get dressed after, adding a bit of make up to the effect prior to heading downstairs after. She did wonder how she managed to make the outfit have such a push up effect.
... was instantly distracted in that.
bent over a bit as she pulled out some of the chocolates she had made before. Sh was essentially dressed up as Miss Rabbit's human form but a more adult version of it. She thought it would be a nice spin.
wouldn't stop staring at her.
tugged a bit at her lacy dress wondering if she had made it too short. She went to focus on putting together a platter of treats after.
thought it was interesting how she always seemed to pick similar outfits..
usually did it for him seeing he did like lace and Miss Rabbit.
did, but he never thought of his rabbit as anything more than a rabbit.
just thought it would be fun...she could find something else to wear if he didn't like it.
liked it, he was just getting use to them.
figured he wanted something different and sighed as she went upstairs to change...
pulled her back and shook his head. "It's nice.."
frowned while she looked at him slightly doubtful about it. " Are you sure?"
nods. "Why would I not be?"
sighed, "Well we don't really match..." He was dressed as an aristocratic vampire.
shrugs. "Halloween doesn't mean we need to match. It's just a day to dress up."
shakes her head though it reminded her that she missed the date itself as she frowned, " Nej but I'm just saying..."
shrugged and hugged her. "It's fine."
nods slowly as she hugged him back weakly, " Okay..."
kissed her forehead. "Now, enjoy the day."
nods as she offered him the sweets but Heimdall dove in to take one first.
glared a bit and nibbled on another. "They're good."
smiled glad for that as she petted Heimdall and told him not to do that again.
ate a few more. "What do you want to do?"
blinks as she nibbled on some sweets. " We can't exactly go and hand out candy to children so I guess we can just watch a scary movie or something."
nods a little. "I have a few. What would you want to watch?"
smiles, " Whatever you want is fine. The scarier the better."
sighs. "Paranormal activity...?"
raises a brow, " That wasn't very scary."
rolls his eyes. "Then tell me what is."
shrugs, " The Exorcist, The Ring, The Shining..." She started listing a lot.
nods and pulled those three out. "Movie marathon tonight."
smiles and went to get a case of beer and some snacks to munch on before getting some blankets and preparing the living room.
/.p[
((... Well my cat says hi.))
made sure everything was cleaned before getting comfortable on the couch
((HELLO THAR KITTEH CAT 8D ))
got into her spot as she put the food and beer on the coffee table. " Which one are we watching first?"
shrugs. "The Exorcist to stat."
nods and put that into the player before quickly plopping herself onto his lap since she wanted to stay warm and comfy.
rolled his eyes and put an arm around her. "Just don't kick me in the groin."
blinks as she looks to him, " You shouldn't have given me that idea that." She smiled and teased.
glares at her. "You'll be on the floor faster than a rug."
nipped his nose. " Don't tempt me."
made a sound and just leaned back to watch the movie.
wiggled around a bit to get settled before leaning against him and watching the movie.
paid attention to it as well as eating a few treats.
found it to be fun to watch with all the myth and devil stuff to start.
made his summon vanish, and focused hard on not thinking of her so as to not bring her harm.
((Shh))
((xD S'ok ))
wondered how scared she got with movies like this.
found them more hilarious rather than scary.
thought it might not be as fun then... He wanted to see her scared.
think he'll have to find other ways.
would try to figure it out..
shifted slightly as she tugged on her skirt again to cover her chest.
tried not to glance down at that as he watched the movie.
didn't seem like she was against that really.
got distracted easily.
didn't find it a problem seeing that it was him. She simply chuckled at different scenes of the movie.
shook his head a bit. He needed to find a movie she'd find scary.
thought he would have to try harder than that.
had an idea...
shifted and nibbled on sweets in the meantime.
rubbed her back lightly, still enjoying the movie none the less.
jumped a little since she was preoocupied in the movie.
raised his brow a bit. "Jumpy much."
pouts at him, " It is getting to the good part."
"Which is?"
blinks, " You know that part where the chick goes mad in her room."
shrugs. "If you say so."
looks over to him, " Hm?" She seemed like he wasn't very interested in the movie.
Netherlands
was
more so thinking on how to scare her.
held onto his sleeve slightly when the exciting part came around.
tried to scare her by touching her side, wanting to startle her.
yelped just as the jump scare happened as she looked at him with look of surprise.
kept looking at the TV, acting innocent.
pouts as she went back to watching the movie. She figured it was just her imagination.
might have done it again at a later point in the movie.
jumped a bit and looked at him before rubbing her side. She fixed the rabbit ears on her head before getting back to the movie.
continued to do that at any opportunity he had.
wriggled as bit and tugged at the lacy collar on her neck as she was getting slightly more jumpy and nervous.
Netherlands
was
enjoying this, and soon started to do subtle other things to scare her.
flinched a bit as she made a faint sound as the movie ended.
"Next movie?"
nods as she shuffled off his lap to let him do it. She didn't want to let her feet touch the ground now.
rolled his eyes and got up to change it. "Are you scared?"
shook her head stubbornly. " Nej! I'm just cold. I am the one wearing a skirt here." It was a half-lie. She was jittery.
smirked and put the movie in and sat down again, putting the blanket around her.
shifted closer but leaned on him rather than being on his lap this time.
stroked her side lightly.
wriggled a bit as she looked at him. " Meanie."
"How?"
pinched his side, " I know your the one making me jumpy."
made a sound. "Oh come on."
chuckles, " You're going to have to do better than that. you gave away yourself too easily."
shrugged. "It's not my fault when I get a little curious."
pinched his side again before watching the next movie as it was starting. " Too bad."
still kept trying to scare her.
jumped and huffed at him. It was starting to get to her.
Netherlands
was
enjoying this.
eventually did jump a bit even when he didn't do it.
Netherlands
was
really starting to enjoy the night now.
curled up a bit as she bit her lip, starting to not like this at all.
tried to make her jump once more.
yelped and practically punched him in the gut and nearly his groin when she freaked out.
coughed a bit. "So nice."
squeaked as she apologized frantically. " S-sorry." She was quite shaken up now.
shook his head and pulled her into his lap, figuring she'd more so cling to him if anything.
did just that as she practically tried to hid herself in his clothing.
Netherlands
was
now enjoying the movie. He was just happy he got his wish.
tried to focus but because she was so jumpy and jittery now she ended up griping onto him tightly and tried to hide.
chuckled a bit. "I thought you weren't scared.
huffed at him. " I blame you for that."
"It's not really my fault..." Or so he didn't think so.
nipped his nose as she was having trouble trying to watch the movie now.
made a sound and rubbed his nose. "What was that for?"
huffs, " You're distracting me."
rolls his eyes. "Watch the movie then." He just rested his hand on her hip.
wriggled a bit and went back to trying to watch the movie.
didn't do anything to her physically this time. Though there was a sudden crash from the kitchen.
froze as her head turned immediately to that direction. "...W-what was that?"
looked over as well. "How should I know...?" He actually had no clue.
looks to see Heimdall and Miss Rabbit on the other couch causing her to tense up more. " Go check it out then..." She nudged him lightly.
raises his brow. "Why don't you do it?"
frowns and pulled herself off his lap, " F-fine." She figured it would be better to get some exercise and get over being scared.
just kept seated and sipped his drink. All it was was the window had been left open and pushed over a vase.
seemed a little surprised at that and closed the window before returning the vase back to its original position. Odd it didn't break...
tilted his head back to look at her. "What was it?"
looks over to him as she sat on the couch. " An open window caused the vase to fall."
nods. "Weird. I don't remember leaving it open... I didn't want the heat escaping."
frowns and just nodded. " I closed it anyway." She curled up a bit with the blanket after.
put an arm around her as he started up the movie again.
shifted to get comfortable before watching it again.
didn't want to get to use to scaring her... but he did touch her side lightly once more to try and make her jump.
yelped and punched him in the groin this time accidentally. He was really asking for that.
hissed and winced. "... Okay, enough."
seemed really apologetic now but she was too freaked out to be able to do anything.
patted her back lightly. "It's okay..."
jumped even from that. She was a bit spooked out now.
kissed her cheek. "You'll be fine."
held onto him. " I-I hope so..." She did shake a little.
smirked and just held her close.
shifted as she nuzzled him. She needed a lot of comfort to get back to her norm.
kissed her head a few more times.
accidentally groped him as she was moving a bit.
made a sound. "Watch your hands."
made an embarrassed sound as she shifted away from him. " S-sorry." The light were turned off too so it didn't help.
kept watching the movie and keeping an eye on her.
huddled up in a fetal position. She yelped when Heimdall jumped onto her shoulder and nipped on her exposed shoulder, leaving a vivid mark there.
huffs and shooshed him away. "Heimdall, nee."
rubbed the spot before noticing that it was bleeding and frowned. Heimdall really overdid it but he saw it as an oppertunity seeing the Dutchman didn't make any moves.
didn't think their kid would attack her in the middle of a movie..
didn't expect it either but Heimdall was sneaky.
licked the blood off her shoulder lightly.
shivered and held onto him tightly. She tried to not show that she enjoyed it.
knew she did, so he did it again.
groaned quietly as she shifted. " ...Harder." She muttered quietly as she held onto him more.
raised his brow before doing it harder, just for her.
shut her eyes tightly as she flinched and made another sound. She kind of missed him being rough to her...
missed it too, but he wanted her to enjoy the movie night..
figured they could get frisky after. She was more relaxed now since she wasn't being freaked out as much.
would never pass that up.
giggled a bit at the scene playing since it seemed like the characters were falling into the obvious traps.
nipped at her neck lightly, liking how soft her skin was
shivered and fidgeted didn't complain as she paid attention to the movie. She did tug at his shirt once in a while.
Netherlands
was
getting more distracted by her and just kept nipping around.
jumped a bit at a scary scene though it caused her to expose her neck more for him. The only problem was the collar around her neck to covered up a few good spots.
didn't hesitate in taking it off. He wanted to have all of her neck.
shifted again as her neck was exposed as she wanted to stay warm.
put a hand around it as he continued to kiss her neck.
had a bit of trouble concentrating as her breathing picked up a bit. She tried to take larger breathes to keep herself focused on the tv.
lightly ran his fingers down her spine.
gasped quietly and looked at him just as the movie ended. " I don't think we'll be able to finish the next movie at this rate..."
shakes his head as he was already putting his hands on her chest.
made a faint sound as she watched him. "...Don't ruin the outfit too much beyond repair."
started taking it off her. "You know I can't help it some times..."
made a faint sound as she shifted in the limited space the couch had. She shivered quietly from the cold.
soon just pushed her down on the couch and took off more of her costume, kissing down her collar bone and chest.
reddened more as she was pinned down by his weight. She was just glad the colour on her cheeks couldn't be seen because of the lack of lighting.
kissed her lightly, finding this being easy.
returned the kiss in a much more passionate fashion, obviously missing him and his kisses quite a bit.
missed her in general... He nipped at her ear lightly, enjoying this.
bit her lip as she held onto him tightly, trying not to melt too much under him considering how sensitive she was that.
knew how sensitive her ear was, that's why he continued to abuse and suck on it.
gasped and groaned almost immediately as she tried not to make anymore sounds but she ended up being even louder. She shut her eyes tightly trying to catch her breath just from that.
ran his fingers lightly down her chest and stomach as he nibbled on her ear lobe, smirking at all this.
tried to not move as much as the shuddered and shifted more uneasily. She did think he was too gentle for her liking though.
more so just wanted to tease her by hitting weak points without doing anything else. He felt like being mean
fidgeted more as she bit her lip and huffed. She didn't like it when he teased her and left her hanging so.
sighed and decided to start being nice. He kissed her lightly as he started taking off his shirt, removing the rest of her costume after.
reached over to help him out, somewhat playing with the frills on his shirt. She did use really nice material for his costume.
could tell, it was nice to wear. But right now all he wanted was to get out of it. He finally got his pants off and leaned over her, biting her neck.
yelped and clawed at him almost immediately in reaction. She practically pressed herself into him more because of how eager she was.
could tell. He bit her neck once more before shifting her a bit. He had missed this...
((Skip? 8D ))
((Yeeeeeeeap! o w o))
shifted as she felt her head was practically spinning as she panted. She had lost count on how many bite marks he left on her through the entire session.
just laid on top of her, keeping the blankets around them. He just knew all he could taste was blood from how hard he bit her a few times...
knew they'll end up scarring if she wasn't careful but she stopped caring considering it was from him. She was feeling a bit tired but it had been a bit of a day.
Netherlands
was
tired himself... He could just sleep beside her like this on the couch.
nuzzled him quietly after with a sheepish smile. She was just glad the couch was big enough for the both of them.
Netherlands
was
too... He kissed the side of her head, wrapping his arms around her after.
kind of didn't mind getting used to this. He was so warm after all and comfy.
Netherlands
was
comfy with the blankets and her... He liked how the day turned out.
fell asleep rather quickly after muttering quietly to him that she loved him. She was frankly quite exhausted not only from the scares earlier but also from him.
smiled and muttered it back to her, seriously happy. He kissed her lightly before falling asleep himself.
