Aylor spread two of his fingers apart to peek out from behind his hand when he heard Junko laughing. Such a pure and lighthearted sound that was intoxicating. Could someone be so... perfect? In Aylor's mind at the very least, Junko could do no wrong at this point.
When he noticed their hands reaching up towards his face, he quickly closed the gap and shut his eyes. He didn't fight against Junko's grip, knowing they were much stronger than he was anyway. It took a few moments before Aylor opened his eyes to peer down at Junko and returned his smile- despite it being unseen. "Welcome," he murmured softly, feeling embarrassed but his hands still ended up subconsciously moving to grasp Junko's. Aylor's blush died down and he tilted in head to the side in confusion. "Tell Castyn?" he asked while hiding his smile at their adorable expression.

"Tell Castyn?" he asked while hiding his smile at their adorable expression.

Aylor still didn't fully understand how him teasing them related to him needing to tell his brother about their movie date. However, he wasn't going to question it. Mainly because he was too happy to find out that Castyn had been teasing him. Castyn had three distinct personas when it came to other people. Rage, which meant he didn't like the person at all; charming, he wanted to deceive the person or seduce them and finally; playful, which meant he was somewhat accepting of the other person in Castyn very tight circle of relations. Aylor would have explained, somewhat of Castyn's intention behind the teasing when Junko continued on to describe the scenario.
Aylor was looking down at the adorable guard when they let it slip about the whole liking Ayli. It didn't click at first but as Junko realized what they had said, Aylor put the pieces together about what they meant by liking. His eyes were wide and red sneaking up past his mask and down his neck. It was a moment later when he sank into a crouch, hiding his face. He was overwhelmed with feelings he didn't really fully understand besides an overwhelming amount of happiness.
Neria was hysterical, as much as a fox demon could be at least. It didn't help that Junko had looked so adorable when they realized what they said.
While Junko was pleading with Aylor to forget about what they said, Ayli was trying his hardest to remain human. Neria recognized that something was wrong and got up, nudging him with her nose but a moment later Aylor was not Aylor anymore.
He's briefly explained his ability to Junko during one of their many conversations over text. However, it was vague and he said that he could change his appearance to whatever animal or human he'd seen before and that when his form was an animal, he was an animal as well. He, fortunately, did mention the fact that his brother seemed to be the only one that can bring him back to normal once in animal form.
Ayli currently was a little white hedgehog by Neria's feet. Curled up into a little ball and hiding its face.

Ayli currently was a little white hedgehog by Neria's feet. Curled up into a little ball and hiding its face.

Junko's first thought upon seeing Aylor curl into himself was that he didn't like them back. Their arm-waving, frantic rambling continued, tears welling up in their eyes at their panic. But when Neria moved, they couldn't help but notice. They crouched in front of Aylor, sniffling shyly. Just as they muttered, "A-Ayli-senpai..?" and touched his shoulder, he poofed into what at first seemed, nothingness. The easily-spooked kitsune jumped hard, whimpering and shaking for a good thirty seconds. Their hands, which had slapped over their face in their fright, slowly lowered so they could look down at what Aylor had become.
Jun burst into a panic. Aylor was absolutely adorable in that form, not that he wasn't already, but they had no idea what to do. "Ay-Ay-Ayli-s-senpaaaaaiii~!" they wailed. They frantically pulled on their braids standing and pacing until the conversation they'd had with Aylor came back to them. Gasping, they skid over to Aylor and carefully picked him up, cradling him carefully against their chest. The hedgehog Aylor could hear their heart racing. "N-Neria-chan...?" they offered, holding down one arm for her to climb onto their shoulders.
((Cuteness overload))
The loud noise coming from the human only had the hedgehog curled up protectively in its own little ball. Despite Aylor's ability that could be incredibly useful if not for the fact he loses a lot of his ability to think as his brain shrinks to match its new body. Ayli was tense when Junko picked him up, the little thing trembling and it didn't help that Junko's heart was racing. Fortunately, though, Aylor did relax eventually in their grasp.
Neria looked at Junko and simply got up from where she sat and turned, flicking her tail and began to walk. She only paused for a moment to look back at Junko expectantly. It would take too long for Junko to hunt down Castyn by himself whereas Neria was contracted to him. She knew his location all the time and the other way around. It was good Ayli was simply happy otherwise he probably would have shifted into a much larger and more dangerous animal. If that was the case, this entire area would need to be shut down and everyone locked behind sturdy doors.

Neria eventually led Junko right to Castyn, who was wandering around the building 6 hallways. He was making his usual rounds since he was on shift. It was irritating and something he could easily get one of his demons to do but he had the time and why not. Anyway, he stopped when he sensed Neria's presence and turned around to see Junko and Neria but not Aylor. Panic shot through him for a moment, Junko's distressed state did not help in the slightest. Neria was always with Aylor, even if they weren't glued to each other, wherever she was, he would be a few steps away.
When they got closer, Castyn realized that Aylor was in fact with them, just in a tiny, animal form. His eyes widened for a moment since then it was rare for Castyn to become such a small animal and something that wasn't threatening or deadly. He strode over to Junko and Aylor, his gaze on Aylor, concerned about this entire development until he realized that Aylor was a simple hedgehog that was curled up, sleeping at this point, in Junko's grasp. It was quite cute.
"Junko, I need to know how he was acting before his transformation," Castyn instructed, looking at the panicking guard. "Relax, you probably did nothing wrong. Ayli transforms when he's feeling intense levels of emotions. Usually, it's anger but this in no way is a creature resulting in anger," he tried to assure the small guard.

"Junko," Castyn snapped, needing them to snap out of whatever they were going through. They had to calm down, especially since their explanation was giving Castyn abdomen pains in attempt to keep himself from laughing.
"Just breath, Junko," Castyn instructed them, "you're going to frighten Aylor if you keep this up. Right now, he's only an animal," he warned Junko gently and as calmly as he could. He wasn't overly good at dealing with hysterical people.
"Aylor doesn't hate you, probably the opposite of what you told me. He probably changed because of how happy he was. His ability is a bit stupid in that sense," he tried to educate.
"I'm going to take Ayli now, I need to bring him out, okay?" he said, trying this whole slow and patient thing but it wasn't really his thing. He did take Ayli from Junko and moved away from Junko to lessen his influence on Aylor so he could snap Aylor out of it. He at least knew how to do that much.
Castyn began talking to Aylor, the earlier tense hedgehog eventually relaxed as its eyes remained glued to his brother. Castyn sat down on the floor then, putting Aylor down in front of him. The little critter went to dart off but a simple instruction from Castyn had it remaining in spot. Aylor soon laid down as Castyn told him to. Lulling him into a state of peace to calm him enough to be able to shift back.
Neria sat by Junko the entire time, looking rather bored. It wasn't the first nor last time this happened. It was more entertaining when he was a wolf or something.
It took a little bit of time, but eventually, Aylor was laying where the hedgehog once was. It looked like he was unconscious and fortunately clothed. How that worked, who the fuck knows.

Once Castyn was sure his brother was fine, he stood up and cracked his neck. Having Shiniba constantly weighting him down took its toll, especially when he was bent over. He was quite a hefty demon. He turned to look at Junko, knowing they were in no way, okay but that wasn't something he could fix. Only Aylor could at this point. "He'll regain consciousness soon enough," he told them with a light shrug, arching back a bit with a grin. "Actions speak louder than words sometimes Junko, actions speak louder than words," was his bidding statement before he continued on down the hall, finally able to release the laughter he'd been holding back. He still couldn't believe that they managed to confess, even by accident! It was too good!
Speaking of said baby boy. Neria got up and wandered over to her friend, sitting down beside his head and began tapping his face with her paw to wake him up. Junko was making her rather antsy and she wanted him to fix it. Plus, she liked the new friend. They were nice and gave her attention.
Aylor was up soon later, stirring and moved his face away from her paw. He sat up, rubbing his eyes and adjusted his mask a bit. He couldn't recall what was going on... until his gaze landed on Junko. His eyes widened at the realization and a blush lit up his face. That's what happened. This time around, he was a bit more level-headed and kept a lid on how happy he felt. Neria hopped onto his shoulder before he got up, running a hand nervously through his hair. "Sorry," he murmured softly, looking at the ground, "I.. was really happy... when.. heard you say that..." he murmured, a bit brokenly from nerves and shyness. It was still quite the challenge to keep his feelings balanced.

Junko continued to cry and tremble despite what Aylor told them. "B-but...you o-o-only told me...that h-happens when you g-get m-m-mad," they whispered, their voice muffled by their hands and the sleeves that covered them. "Y-you...just... And... It sc-caaaared meeeee!" They ended up wailing, releasing a sob that they had been choking down in Castyn's presence. Their eyes clamped shut and they covered their tear-stained, flushed face. "It m-m-made me think...you haaate meeeee!" Their voice was muffled due to them covering their face, but that didn't hide the pain and fear that made them sob yet again.
Jun had never let themself get attached to anyone, both because of their trust issues, and simply because other people were judgy and a hassle. Aylor was special to them, and they supposed that soon Castyn would be as well. The simple idea of Aylor coming to hate them hurt them more than they could have ever expected. It was that which made them pull their hands away from their face and leap at Aylor, burying themself in his chest. "Please don't h-hate meeee," they begged, their tiny body shaking harder.
((fricken frack. Thanks and sorry >~<))
Aylor felt an immense feeling of guilt tearing at him with Junko's words. "I've only had it happen then," he murmured softly, knowing it was a weak explanation but it was true. Ever since Castyn found him again, he hadn't been happy to the point that it was literally something he couldn't contain. He'd only been scared or angry when he occurred and so that's what he thought was the trigger. He didn't know for sure if it was the result of extreme experiences of emotion and without confirming it he didn't want to say something that could end up being a lie.
"I'm sorry Jun," Ayli whispered. The last thing Aylor ever wanted to do was scare them. If only he had more control over his ability like Junko did. His eyes widened at the mention of making them think he hated them. He was shocked and desperate to let them know the truth.
Before Aylor could go to them, which he was about to do, Junko already lunged and clung to him. Without hesitation, Aylor hugged them tightly, rubbing light circles on their back. "I.. sorry Jun-ko.... I don't hate you... could never hate you... think I... like.. you, too..." he stammered. He didn't really mean to admit it, since he wasn't a hundred percent certain on what liking someone felt like but he knew that Junko was very special to him. He didn't want them to be taken away from them or to ever be hurt. To love and protect, like he did with his brother... but it felt different than that so what else could it be?

Aylor was blushing, unable to look at Junko for a few moments after he'd confessed. It was cliche and cheesy but he felt happy. It didn't help ease any guilt from frightening them so much. He hadn't meant to do so but alas he had because he couldn't control his emotions. "Yeah," he replied, his voice hoarse. Aylor glanced down at them and found himself gently wiping their face. They knew how to melt him into slush completely. "Could.. never hate you," he responded confidently but his tone still soft and husky. Aylor's eyes widened for a moment, frozen by the look in Junko's eyes. They had him wrapped around their finger and they didn't even know it! Aylor nodded mutely, glad that his mask was on. He would have died if Junko saw how much he was blushing right now.
Aylor was startled by their laughing fit, unsure what to do for the longest time. His hands were raised, arched back a bit to look at Junko but he didn't move away from them. Slowly, after their words, he lowered his arm and patted his head. "Same," he murmured softly. He'd been so happy enough to force him to shift into something he hadn't meant to.

"Say, Ayli-senpai...?" Jun began, looking shy, but not nearly as emotional as they had been before, luckily. "You...you must promise not to...poof away again, alright?" Brows narrowed and eyes a bit desperate, they waited for his response, his nod, anything, before leaning forward. Right hand on Aylor's shoulder, left on his thigh, they closed the distance, pressing a soft kiss to Aylor's left cheek.
As Junko calmed down, it gave Aylor a chance to cool off as well. Mostly anyway. He was, fortunately, a gentleman unlike his brother and could contain himself. It helped with his lack of knowledge and general admiration and adoration towards them. They were captivating to look at.
Aylor was glancing around, lightly stroking Neria which helped ease the emotions he was feeling. It was saddening how easily he could lock away his emotions once more. The result of his rough training to become a killer.
When they spoke his name, Ayli turned his attention back fully to Junko, looking a bit curious. In their continued statement, Aylor's brows furrowed in confusion. He didn't know what he meant by proof away. Sure, he seemed to disappear and reappear but he didn't recall doing that until he was sure it was his time to leave. Aylor was confused but alas, nodded. He wouldn't disappear from Junko intentionally before he was bid goodbye.
What happened next was something he had never expected. He didn't realize what they had done at first, due to the mask being partially in the way but when it registered, Aylor's entire face turned red. He looked at Junko with wide, surprised eyes, glad that his mask was hiding half of his expression. He was sure he looked goofy at how embarrassed and happy he looked.
Aylor, if he could even think to return something of the like, couldn't even because of the restriction his mask presented. Thus, Aylor did nothing, said nothing for a good moment. Hesitating, he leaned down and touched his nose [his masked nose] to their nose. He held it there, eyes closed to hopefully be able to convey what he was feeling before pulling away.

Aylor smiled when hearing their giggle, glad they didn't seem to hate his reply to their action. The way they rubbed their nose against his had Aylor surprisingly capable of keeping his emotions balanced. An odd thing to relax him but nonetheless, it happened. He was glad that he didn't shift again, he knew his brother wouldn't be impressed in the least if that happened. It did, for a brief moment, made him wonder how he'd react if they were to kiss on the mouth. He didn't know if his heart could handle it.
Aylor straightened up when they pulled away, opening his eyes and was smiling behind his mask. "Thank... you," he said, his tone soft and earnest. Junko had given him more than he could ask for already and now even more than that.

((Idk what else to do with them at this point. Aylor does need to see when he had a weekend off so they can do that shit... so probably another skip??))

((We can put a pause on this.
Is the skeleton designed similarly to the one in bleach? If so that might help with your search. Sorry for not being much help otherwise))

Mike looks down at this small, strange person who just gave me a lecture. I make sure my hair covers those horn nubs on my forehead. Flexing my wrists once out of the cuffs, I notice that as she speaks, she has a slight accent. Her words are strange too. “Wager? So formal. Hooch? No one says hooch anymore. You sure talk like you are from another time.” Grins “Well, I am glad I get to watch the game and the guards give me newspapers when they are done reading them. I can't wait until the sports illustrated comes my way”
That army discipline keeps me out of trouble with the guards. Or is it because I am so heavily drugged up? I look about the cafeteria. This place reminds me of the mess hall at the base. All the men chatting and gossiping. The comradely the other inmates show each other. A tinge of homesickness tugs my heart. I miss my buddies at the base and my work. I suppose I will never see the inside of the cockpit of a fighter jet again. What a pickle I'm in now.
“OK, time for chow.” I take up a tray and looks over the offerings. They have such good food here. Think I'll stick to OJ & lay off the coffee. Those meds are making me too hyper. I Sit down at the end of a table, trying to get comfortable in these bolted down seats. They are not meant for tall men with long legs. I wait for the familiar guard to put the little clear plastic cup full of pills in front of me before I touch anything. I down the contents pretending it has the finest whiskey in it, 100 years old. I can dream, can't I? I wash them down with the orange juice, then open my mouth to show I really took them, lifting up my tongue. Then I tell him before he walks off to medicate the next inmate “This regiment needs to be adjusted, it makes me too hyper.” I think he grunts an acknowledgment. Hard to tell in the noise. I guess I'll be seeing the doctor or a medic later. I hope I don't get a needle. I hate needles.
Yum. This breakfast is better than anything they gave us at the base.


Jessica leans slightly against the wall, scanning the cafeteria for any potential problems brewing. The inmates sure do like to socialize. It is easy to tell the westerners, most of them tower over the Asian inmates, even when seated. She keeps a close eye on Mike. He is handsome and amusing. She can see why they liked him so much at the training grounds. His flight teacher, the one he saved, is very worried about him. She wishes she could contact her and tell her that he is OK. He'll make a fine demon once he is finished his training and has his brand.
She wonders how many of these inmates have powers in this cafeteria. Some are so powerful and unpredictable they are not allowed to mix with other inmates and take their meals in their cells. The ones in this cafeteria must not be so bad if they are allowed to mix at meal times. Then they get time in the yard. There is a Japanese style bath in each of the buildings. A well behaved inmate like Mike should have plenty of opportunities to be social.
Patiently, she waits for Michael Penderson number 387 to finish up and come over to her to be escorted to his next destination. Most likely the exercise yard, then the showers and back to his cell.

Even the best breakfast in the world can't keep the fact that I am in prison. I dump my tray, put it on the used tray pile and go up to that strange little guard. I extend my hands for her to cuff me.
I've never even spent a night in a local jail, let alone in an international prison filled with the most heinous criminals from all over the world.
As I follow behind this strange guard I can't help but complain. “I just knocked down a couple of walls. I dunno why I am in prison, let alone this prison. I mean, should I not be sued for damages or something like that? I really thought that evil sorcerer was there. I wasn't aiming at anyone. No one got hurt. Well, unless any of the women in the bath house caught a cold."
"OK, OK I used demon fire. OK, so I created it out of nothing. I suppose that could be arson but why am I here, of all places? I didn't get a phone call. I didn't get a trial. Nothing. What about a lawyer? Don't I have any rights? Please call the base, do they know I am here? I wanna talk to the captain. Can I talk to the captain? I remember the phone number of his office. I just need to tell them I am here.” I can't hide the very troubled look coming over my face, as if saying these words puts more weight into this situation that I've not come to grips with. Gads they give good medication here.
“I've been told nothing so as far as I know, the base don't know I am here. I mean would they not have said something to me if they did? “A phone call that is all I ask. Lemme talk to the captain.” I rub the back of my neck as we walk. I am really getting nervous not knowing my situation.

“I on a personal level I know you are not a bad guy and to me, your being human or not has nothing, and I mean NOTHING to do with what kind of being you are, what the caliber of your spirit is, but it is not up to me. Here, “ Points downward as if there are other references “on this world, being human means everything, and you are not quite human any longer.”
With those words, she realizes that she was being none too gentle with this man who has been through so much pain. Her face and voice soften and she steps closer to him. “Look, I know all this is not your fault. Every prison has pay phones in or around the visitors area. Most inmates make collect calls to family from them but for you, I will pick up a call card at the store when I get off duty. Tomorrow I'll bring you to the inmate pay phones and let you make your call. You have been chawing at the bit to phone outside the prison. I just hope you simmer down after the call.” She puts her sunglasses back on, gruffly asks “Happy?”

I listen intently to her words. This odyssey has been a brutal learning experience, from being tortured and mutilated to being locked up in this international prison. I do not like being out of control to this extent. Being in the US air force, I've learned to relinquish control to my superiors. That is why I chose to become a pilot. Even tho I was under orders of those on the ground, while I was up there, I was in control and totally free. A freedom that most would never understand. Now, this small guard is lowering the boom on me about my situation.
When that being saved my life and took me to hell, I never thought I would see the Earth again. I didn't much care if I did. I left the air force to save my marriage but it was too little to late. There was not much to keep me here, despite being hired back as if I never really left. This guard, this strange guard, she reminds me of that being who appeared before me after I ejected from that doomed jet. Honest & bluntly to the point. No more constitutional rights? Now that is a cold sobering thought. If I have no rights then what do I have? You have to be completely human to have rights? What is a man without his rights?
When she tells me she'll get a card for me to phone the captain at the base and bring me to these payphones, I'm overjoyed. No one has offered to help me since I got here. No one gave me any of my requests for legal help. They would just give me more medication, epically if I became agitated when my simple requests were ignored. So I learned to stop asking before they put me in a drug induced coma. Despite being well cared for, we are little more than animals here.
She listens to me and dose not just write me off as a crazy nut. What a kind guard, so strange to find that in a place like this.
With a broad smile on my face I beam at her ”Happy? I am ecstatic! If I were not in these cuffs I would hug you!” I take her hands in mine and look at those sun glasses that reflect my face and hide her eyes “Thank you sooo much. You are so kind”

(( Sorry this is short, will continue at the visitation room or just outside at the phones.))
