Trying to figure out a ship name for them. And don't judge me, I'm writing a Tauradonna story and this couple is a side couple and I've kinda fallen in love with them (the character personalities i have for them in my head).
Fox= fiery, sassy SOB, snarky too
Sage= quiet, calm, in control, caring
Those are the base personality that I have for them. The other stuff just branches out from that.

This is also up on AO3, I typically post everything there first before moving it to here.

The team didn't arrive back from their mission until four hours before the dance even started—much to Fox's annoyance. His team had spent so damn long in their preparations for the damn event and they couldn't even see it fully to the end. He didn't trust the other team that took over to do their work any justice.

And the worst part was... he didn't get a damn date for it.

Velvet was flying solo, only really popping in and out of it to show her support for the hard work that everyone had done (including herself). But he knew that she was just a little bit peeved that she couldn't go out with someone of her choice—as in a date. And Fox didn't exactly make her cut; she wanted someone who'd might be willing to kiss her at the end of the evening. Like some stupid fairy tail bullshit that they've all be fed as children.

See, Velvet did have a point though. He liked dick—actually he was open to both sexes, he just preferred men over women. They seemed to be a little more fiery—less breakable. He could drop them a couple of times and they won't bend or shatter or break. And when he pushed they tended to push back. So, all in all, Fox tended to stick to men—but a few of the ladies did have a little spark in them that he enjoyed.

But even if Velvet was a man, he wouldn't take her. Well, him in that case. Velvet was just too... cushy. Too soft and cuddly. He wanted someone all hard edges and strong—someone that he could gnaw at for hours and he still wouldn't be able to find the soft juicy bits.

Someone like...

Fox paused just before he was to enter his dorm room. Eyebrows drawn down and forehead creased as he took in the dark skinned male with green hair.

...someone like him would do.

Fox grinned, taking a quick waft of his clothes before making his way to the obviously waiting male. He smelt decent enough considering his return to campus. "Hey," he started out, drawing the male's golden eyes towards him. Mmmh, Fox did always love that golden colour. "Can I help you with anything?" he stopped just short of the green haired male, propping a hand up to his waist.

"Just waiting for a friend," the male replied. And oh did his voice ever sound like music to his ears, all rich and sensual like the colour of his skin.

Fox hummed something to himself before moving to lean against the wall beside this unnamed male, "haven't seen you around here before, what's your name?" he glanced up at the tattooed male from the corner of his eyes and was pleasantly surprised to see the unnamed male hold his gaze. "The name's Fox," he tilted his head, smiling slyly up at the taller male.

"Sage," the male, Sage, replied. Voice still as steady and unchanging as it was before. Damn, Fox really wanted to make this male loose his cool. Maybe crack a smile or something—or, better yet, see a waver in that calm and controlled look of his. Fox got the sense that this dude was seemingly always in control of his emotions—and even if he wasn't it seemed that way.

"So, Sage, are you thinking about going to that dance?"

The taller male shrugged a shoulder, "been tossing the idea around," he replied easily. And now here was the moment that Fox could swoop in a suggest that they get to know each other better and dance away the evening. It would've been the perfect moment too, if not for the blond and blue haired males calling out for Sage and the green haired boy made a movement to leave. "That's me," he spoke causing the frown on Fox's face to deepen, "I'll see you around."

The male waved over his shoulder as he joined his friends.

Fox muttered a few curses under his breath, quickly escaping to his dorm room a few doors down.
