Shademan sat in his throne silently figuring how to distribute the newest batch of dark chips to. He slowly counted the new shipment and grimaced, there were two less cases then normal. He figured the last distributors must have run into Rockman or Blues. Shademan sighed; he knew he was going to have some unhappy followers. He rubbed his eyes with his long fingers and winced at the way his hard fingernails dug into his skin.

Burnerman snuck up behind Shademan and blew into his ear, making the other navi jump. Shademan whirled around and glared at his lover. "What are you doing here?" he asked

"All work and no play makes you a very dull boyfriend." Said Burnerman, his crazy blue eyes alight with laughter.

Shademan turned his red eyes to meet with Burnerman's, his eyes were dull and he was over stressed, it didn't take a genius to figure that out. "Burnerman, not now, I'm trying to figure out something." He said

Burnerman leaned over and looked at the statistics that Shademan had been looking at. "Another deficit huh?" he smiled sadly. "Those human brats are better then we thought."

"Unfortunately." Shademan growled.

"Awww why worry about that now?" Burnerman purred into Shademan's ear. "Can't we just have a nice little night to ourselves?"

Shademan relaxed a tiny iota before stiffening. "Burnerman, I need to work, please leave me alone."

Burnerman snaked his arms around Shademan's chest armor. "Awwww… please?" he said.

Shademan tried to get out of the currently unwelcome embrace but he couldn't bring himself to do it. "Burner…" he said

"Just forget about your work for once. Come on!" he whined.

"Whining isn't going to help you." Shademan said

"Awww, but Shady! You've worked so hard for so many nights, let your little group of minions go for a little while." Burnerman put his head next to Shademan's. "For me?" he added in a sugary sweet voice.

Shademan shook his head. "I'm sorry Burner, but this can't go unseen. I need to fix this problem or risk a coup de ta."

Burnerman relinquished his hold on Burnerman and let his arms fall heavily to his sides. "All right." He said and left the room.

Shademan watched him walk away and winced at the obvious pain he was feeling. "I'm sorry…" he said to air.

Burnerman sat in his cyber room pouting. He knew his boyfriend was cold but he almost always could get him to warm up a little. Burnerman sighed into his pillow. "That's what I get for going out with a power hungry maniac." He said

"Now who's the power hungry maniac?" said a cool voice from his doorway.

Burnerman sat up to see Shademan standing in the entrance, he was holding a little squirrel plushie and he looked very uncomfortable.

"Shady…" Burnerman said, unsure of what to say.

Shademan held up his hand stopping Burnerman before he could go any further. "Just give me a second. I'm sorry about ignoring you for the past few days, I'm still very busy but I know that's no excuse…" Burnerman jumped up from his bed and hugged Shademan tightly cutting off the rest of his speech.

"It's all right. As long as you're her now, care to play a little?" he got a mad glint in his steely blue eyes.

Shademan narrowed his own eyes and glared at Burnerman. "You're pushing it tonight aren't you?"

Burnerman smiled. "Maaaaaaybe." He said

Shademan sighed. "All right, but only for a little bit." He said

"YES!" Burnerman took the plushie and ran into a different room, Shadmean following slowly behind.

Burnerman finished his song. "YES! 205 combo! Beat that Shady!" he said.

Shademan groaned. He hated DDR.
