Plan III: Lost

So now he was being ignored for Giant yellow chickens. Wonderful. What did they have that he didn't? It wasn't muscle, Seymour had plenty of those. It certainly wasn't his, ahem, 'assets' that were quite obvious even in his strange outfit. So what did they have that he did not?!

'Squawk' said a Chocobo, who was looking smugly at Seymour as Tidus, his Tidus might he add, petted it. The blue haired Measter wanted to skin the damn thing. How dare it be showered in the affections that Seymour so rightly deserved? Hell the man swore he had earned that love after he had offered his little gift to the blonde, but did he get anything? No!

'There there little fella, all's good' said Tidus in his ever chipper voice.

Seymour's eyes narrowed to tiny slits as he glared at the smug bird. Ooooh, he would make a nice pelt, maybe even a boa for Tromell. Memo to self: Make boa out of…Chippy the Chocobo. Seymour gave an all too familiar and evil smirk as the chocobo stared at him. IT made a sort of sad sound, making Tidus wonder what was wrong.

Chippy recognized the look of a murderer on Seymour's face, which the man was so not a murderer, cause that would make him evil and we all know, evil can't ever win. At any rate, yes, Chippy understood perfectly what that evil look meant.

'Hey Seymour, do you know what's wrong with Chippy?' asked Tidus, forgetting to add the Maester's title, making the chocobo handler behind them gasp and cry out a small murmur of 'sacrilege' to which Seymour just waved it off.

'I haven't a clue my dear, if I did, I would have surely soothed the kind beast' answered Seymour smoothly, patting himself on the back for being so cool. Tidus merely cocked his head at the man and turned around again to try and calm the chocobo down. The man swore the boy had it out for him. He was going to kill Seymour from an epileptic attack. The bluenett calmed himself, with the promise of having Tidus within his grasp soon and instead, smiled his ever kind yet mocking smile.

Tidus turned his head a bit, looking at the man before snorting a bit, making the older one wonder what went through Tdus' head. The blonde fixed and composed himself quickly, merely petting Chippy who didn't like Seymour's sudden closeness to his blonde friend, snapping his beak at the Maestor, the chocobo made a sound of victory when he managed to nip Seymour's abs, making the area swell an angry red and bleed.

Seymour let out a gasp, quickly reaching over to the stinging area, only to find the blonde boys hands over the cut, a worried look in his blue eyes.

'Chippy! Why did you do that?' asked Tidus, cutting the birds victory short as it watched jealously as Tidus looked for something to cover Seymour's cut and clean it gently. When the area was wiped clean and patched, Tidus pulled away from Seymour, oddly silent. This bothered the man to no end as he watched the boys back. Tired of the silence he decided to talk.

'Thank you for caring about me so. I was a bit shocked by Chippy's sudden mood swing' said Seymour, glaring at the bird. Unknown to him Tidus felt a foreign warmth on his cheeks, which he quickly tried to calm, turning around to smile at Seymour.

'Nah, its cool. I was shocked too. Chippy seems so gentle' said Tidus, returning to normal, ignoring the fluttering his chest did when Seymour gave him one of his winning smiles, and the way the man stood closer too him than necessary. Instead he focused on walking back outside of the chocobo ranch, meeting up with Yuna and the others, who circled him showing off the items they had acquired during their trip to get the secret aeon Yojimbo.

Seymour calmly walked to his own entourage, waving to the guardians and flirting with Yuna, which made Tidus feel a little…jealous. Sniffing, Tidus mumbled he was going to go fight some fiends, Rikku following him. Seymour made a little sound as Tidus bumped into him in his rush, watching as the two blondes walked away, turning back to look at Yuna who smiled her gentle and loving smile, making the Maestor wince.

It was hard lying to such a beautiful girl, and it was also hard seeing an equally beautiful boy ignoring him so. Seymour had never felt so lost before, even with all the things that had happen to him in his life, and what he had done. He supposed there were too many mistakes piling up, and he was starting to feel the brunt weight of them all.

Sighing he looked upwards to the sky, wondering if he'd ever find his place and way in this spiral of a world.
