CC101- Hey guys, just so you know, I am not abandoning this. I just feel like I have mono so I have no energy!

Kiku Honda slowly entered a small white room. The room contained two small brown armchairs and a small wooden table. Placing the files in his hands on the table, Kiku set his coat neatly on the back of the chair. Then he went to the thermostat to turn up the heat. He found that while nagas can produce their own heat, it was only to a limited degree. As Alfred and Arthur would just be sitting there, their muscles will not be giving off extra heat. Cold nagas weren't very happy nagas.
Sitting down on the brown armchair with his coat on the back, Kiku opened the files. One was Alfred's file, the other Arthur's, and finally general information about his mission. The Japanese man brought the general information file closer to him. The sheet of paper on top was some notebook paper that Kiku had written on earlier. They held questions on it to ponder.
1. As Alfred is a younger naga, should Arthur stay to help raise the nagalets?
2. If they seem to be a good mating pair, should we keep them together to breed more nagalets?
3. Should we give Alfred fertility drugs?
4. A large area has been selected for them; they will be away from prying eyes but still inside a large building. This is a larger space than most; will it affect the number of eggs?
A gentle knock interrupted his thoughts. Looking at the door, Kiku said, "Come in!" The dark wooden door opened and a human and a green-scaled naga came through. "Ah, Toris, Arthur, greetings my dear friends," the Japanese man welcomed and bowed his head once he saw who they were.
Toris gave an awkward head bow in return. Arthur simply nodded. The naga slithered to the open brown armchair. "Hello, Kiku. Nice to see you again."
Said person nodded, "You as well. Did something happen? I thought Alfred was first." At this, he looked at Toris for an answer.
The Lithuanian sighed. "Alfred is still sleeping off the drugs. So instead I brought Arthur first."
Kiku nodded. "Good idea. You may leave Toris. I trust Arthur."
Despite his size, Toris was part naga breeder, trainer, and protector all in one. It would be his job to subdue Arthur if something went wrong. Although all of them knew that Arthur would never do that, he had very good control over his Alpha instincts. Toris smiled and left the room, closing the door behind him.
The green naga, curled comfortably in the armchair, held up the beautiful photo of Alfred that was given to him. "You have chosen me a pretty mate. He looks beautiful, blue scales are a rarity with our kind. Red, orange, black, white, green, yellow, and brown are our standard hues yet you brought me a precious sapphire."
Kiku smiled at Arthur's observation. "You're welcome. I am glad you like him." He closed all the folders on the table. "This, as you already know, is the customary questions and answers session. If you have any questions, ask them now."
Arthur nodded. "Very well, my mate is a virgin correct?"
"Hai."
"He is young?"
The human nodded. "Yes."
The half-snake frowned. "A younger naga, like a younger snake, will produce less eggs, you know this. So why then did you pick him?"
Kiku grinned slightly wider. "You always were smarter than the other nagas. My team and I wish to achieve three things. Our most important are nagalets. The next is the effect of the father naga staying to help raise the nagalets, and finally, to discover if nagas can actually love."
"I see," Arthur commented. He had gotten used to humans asking him questions. However, he understood the curiosity that drove them. Nagas where half human, they had abilities that humans could never have, but they also share many traits. This was just the humans' way of figuring out nagas rights as half-human animals. "As a personal preference, I would like to stay with my mate. My mother convinced my father and all but one of my five brothers and sisters survived."
"I see. Any other questions?"
"Where are we living?"
"We have created an extremely large plot of land for you and Alfred. It is protected by the Zoo and will have creatures for you to hunt. However, we may give you food if you prefer not to hunt," explained Kiku.
"Mmmm…" Arthur shifted in the chair, his scales glinting in the light. "Last question, when will I meet my mate?"
Kiku opened the general information file. "In two days, you will rest until we bring you to a room with glass separating you. For safety, I assure you."
The naga lightly hissed. "I would not mistreat my mate!"
The breeder nodded. "It's more for him. Alfred has barely been in the presence of an Alpha before. The only Alpha he has ever met was his brother. The rest of his siblings were Betas. We don't want him to spook and be afraid."
"Very well, when then, can I touch him?"
"Two days after that."
Arthur sighed. "Fine." The naga didn't seem happy but at least he didn't freak out. "I believe it is time for me to go. I have no more questions."
Kiku nodded in agreement. Getting up, he walked to the door and knocked on it. The door was opened by Feliks, who was smiling at the two.
"Kiku! Arthur! Like, how are you?" The Polish man asked excitedly as he took Arthur's hand and pulled him down the hall without even letting Kiku talk. His excited voice echoed down the halls for several second after the two were out of sight.
The Japanese many sighed. Alone, he shut the door and walked back to his armchair. Stretching out his fingers and rolling his head, Kiku tried to relax his muscles. Once that was somewhat accomplished, he waited in silence for Alfred to appear. This time, in case of something going wrong, Toris would be there to protect Kiku and Alfred.
Another knock on the door sounded through the room.
"Come in!"
The door opened to let Toris and Alfred back in. Kiku's eyes wandered over Alfred's body. It seemed to be healthy and good for child bearing. The head researcher stood up and stuck out his hand. "Alfred, it's good to finally meet you in person."
Taking the hand and shaking it, Alfred smiled at Kiku. "I am glad to see you too. Thank you for allowing me the honor. I…I just can't wait to have nagalets!"
Kiku smiled at the Omega's feelings. The naga's sapphire eyes seemingly screamed his excited emotions. "I am delighted for you. Please, have a seat in the empty arm chair. I would like to start this talk right away." He gestured at the seat as he went back to his own. "I am sure that you have many questions regarding everything we do, as it is your first time unlike Arthur."
The American naga nodded and slithered to his seat. "I have as many questions as needles of a pine tree, never going away during any season and even producing new questions to replace the old." Curling up correctly, he faced Toris. "Where will you sit?"
The brunette smiled. "Oh? I am fine, I prefer to stand. I have been sitting down waiting for you to wake up. Standing will do me some good." He moved to behind Alfred's chair. "I promise to sit down if I feel like it."
Kiku was pleased with the relationship between Toris and Alfred. The two would be together during this whole process and it was a wonderful sign that they were getting along splendidly. "Now, shall we get started?"
Turning back his attention to Kiku, Alfred nodded. "Yes, I am sorry."
"So, Alfred…we have given you a large property for both you and Arthur. According to your records, your heat shall be coming in around two months," informed Kiku. "In two days, you will meet you future mate. It will be in a separating room. Two days after that, you will finally meet face to face. However, if at any time you don't feel this relationship will work out, just ask Toris to talk to me. I'll figure something out."
The blue naga hissed. "Arthur will be perfect."
Kiku nodded. Omegas were often protective over their Alphas as Alphas were of their Omegas. It didn't matter that they didn't even meet. Kiku found that nagas may bond just for expectation of meeting a potential mate. The chance was increased if one believed the other to be a worthy mate, which Arthur definitely was. "Yes, I am sorry. Now, do you have any questions?"
Alfred thought for a minute. "Umm… How many times will I go to Yao?"
"Once every week."
"And, when will I move in with Arthur?"
Kiku looked at the files quickly, his pale hands rapidly searching for the information. "It says here that if all goes well, Arthur will move into the enclosure with you within two weeks. That gives you about a month and a half to get to know each other."
Nodding, Alfred sighed in happiness, his blue eyes going hazy lost in a daydream. "Hmmm… Everything will be perfect."
"Are there any other questions?"
…
…
…
Kiku looked up at Alfred, who was stuck in his daydream. "Ummm… Alfred?" The naga didn't move. "Alfred." Still no response. "Alfred!"
Looking up, the Omega sighed. "Sorry. I got distracted." He scratched his neck, careful not to scrape himself with his claws. "You were asking about more questions, I believe. My answer is my curiosity is satisfied. Thank you."
The black-haired man stood up. "Is there anything else I can help you with or is this goodbye?"
Alfred got up as well. "No, that will be all. Thank you again."
Nodding to Toris, who had stepped closer to the door, Kiku sent Alfred a smile. "You are welcome."
Toris grabbed onto Alfred's hand and grinned. "Let's go."
The naga waved to Kiku. "Good bye, Kiku." With that, he slithered out of the room, still holding the Lithuanian's hand.
