My Favorite Mistake:

"Jack..." Ero pleas with him.

He so badly wanted Jack to stop licking his newly pierced lobe so is could clearly explain how important these pieces of jewelry were. They allowed him to carry his familiar and other magical items he needed for every day usage. Beside heavy grade protective spell engraved into the metal that made claps and chains of his piercing. White stones that remand waiting to store whatever else beings or objects Ero would use.

At the moment wasn't happening since both of them sat in back of a movie theater taking the latest film Jack wanted to see. This meant usage of Ero's latest invisible spell he learned from the spell books in North's library. If kept his and Jack's corporeal form from eyes of morals just not the noises they made when both moved around. Ero made precautions to have turn their clothes and accessories turn unseen along with them. Since he wasn't in the mood to a concealed exhibitionism despite Jack sharing a naughty fancy about enacting the idea.

"We can do this ...la..." Ero felt his resolve crackling.

He knew that what Jack wanted was going come true if he didn't do something since he was about to come apart. Making him blame his newly body alterations to his ear lobe along would get most of Jack's attention at the moment. Not once would eyes belonging to a winter spirit would look to moving picture on screen before them. To only leave the person that Jack was trying to arouse into with usage of just using his tongue in licking matter. Keeping his hands to him self-knowing he could use them soon when Ero would soon caved.

Too only ended up stopping when the booming sounds from a near by speaker on the wall had Jack turning away from Ero. He could look to the screen and stare at what the sounds went with as he entered an excited state. He ended up cheering on for the person who made the loud noises leaving Ero to cool down from the Jack's manipulation. To the point he was unable to get to his feet and get away in fear of Jack licking up his ear again. This he was stuck with sitting there and waiting for the movie to end so they could leave afterward.

"Yeah!" Jack's yell startled Ero, "Kick his ass!"

"Keep quiet." Ero reminds Jack never placed a noise-diapering spell on their vocal cords.

"How can you be quiet with what's going on that screen?" Jack points with his staff.

Ero rolled his eyes at him again tell him that what they were watching couldn't ever beat a good book he prefers to read. In the back of his cushioned chair he would go crossing his arms and signing as his eyes took in the sight. Jack ended up vowing the next time they ended becoming sexual with each other. He was going to play one of the many movies he favored over his 300 yrs as a Spirit. To only be told by Ero he didn't have a TV and player of any kind set up in his room at the workshop.

This led to Jack wearing his signature smile that left Ero guessing that there was something new in Jack's room RIGHT NOW. The feeling that started to spiral around in Ero's stomach told him he would regret his words. Leaving him to fully recline in is seat and take in the sight while Jack went back to enjoying. Not knowing the humans ranging from adults to children to become scared. Do to the noises and angry voices that were coming from the top row of the theater. Had a few guessing that rumors about this building being haunted was actually true.

To an usher a few would run asking for him to check the to row and see if they're weren't any supernatural being. Stomping around the seats making the sounds that was leaving a few of them wanting to leave the movie. Only have their fears put to rest when usher with flashlight in hand walked up to the top row and searched. Finding nothing by seats with indentations in tow of the seats that were in the shape of person's rear. That moved side to side with voice of one telling the other they would be caught if hadn't kept his hands to him self. Laugh that filled the room with temperature that matched beginning season had people shivering.

"Told you." Ero had to whisper pointing out Jack's behavior was scaring people..

"You don't have to sound so serious." Jack mumbled sitting back in his seat tightly clenching his staff within his arms.

Eyes that gazed upon both of them didn't ease the tension forming form their unwanted presence in this theater. On to their feet both would know they needed to leave before movie come to a stop. Using Jack's staff with combination of one of North's 'borrowed' Snow Globe to leave the area. Ero tossed the Snow Globe after mounting the staff with behind Jack. Holding onto him with one arm while using his other to correctly aim the Snow Globe before them. After cracking and spilling it contains to form a portal North's Workshop they traveled through.


Lorre pulled in Hakase to the kitchen area of the North's Workshop to be official taste tester. His husband and Tekla got into a baking recipe and all times of small treats made of sugar topped with frosting. Before being completely wrapped in decorative plastic bags tied off with bright colored ribbon (by the Yetis).

"PUT DOWN COOKIE!" Tekla caught one of the Yetis' about to sneak a bite.

She waved her spoon around in the air while her apron moved on her model-like figure in angry fury ready to smack. Down the cookie with huge chuck messing went on to the metal trey matching copies lay waiting to he wrapped. Before hairy giant started to with hand gestures and grunts about not doing any thing wrong. Tekla understood while she argued back swinging her wooden spoon more widely understanding Yeti's excuses. What he ended up having an over sized apple stuffed within his mouth by Hakase using his shadow magic.

"Now you some thing healthier to eat then something that can rot your teeth." Hakase reminds this Yeti he tasted the batches.

"I was going to use that." Lorre whined about apple Hakase used to silence a Yeti.

Tekla ended up rolling her eyes at Lorre's complaining about something she has plenty of if he was willing to look. Off to corner of the kitchen next to the distillery she used to make her alcohol was labeled barrels filled with fruit. One of them was her barrel of apples she made one of the Yetis to fetch an apple for Lorre to use. Not wanting to have piece of fruit shoved in their months off first one went when Hakase stared their way.

Making that Yeti lucky one that wasn't there when Tekla asked if Lorre if he had become comfortable his husband's arrangement with Edwyna. This brought attention to the sexual fling he been sharing with her. From what Tekla found out from a few gossiping Yetis that tend to bedrooms. About Edwyna satisfying Hakase in all different positions until he was left sores and tired. Who would dismiss Ero's mother for company of Lorre not caring if he still had smell of another on him.

"He had my permission to carry on the affair since we're trying for a brother for Ero." Lorre wasn't bothered by the news.

"We've heard about you and North expecting," Hakase picks up a cookie. "Thought about having one our own through naturally means."

"Edwyna was the best choice since other female spirits don't really like... Hakase..." Lorre recalled approaching them.

Tekla was so touched she would have dropped what she as to mix to hug Lorre if wasn't for certain portal action repeating. Meant the Snow Globe portal that Jack and Ero passed through to get out of theater appeared above Hakase. Both ended up flying straight at him in downward angel that was unsafe for them both. No wanting a crash landing that can cause a scene nobody wanted to witness or clean up. Hakase pulled a trick he learned from his chaotic youth when battling fearlings. Quick snap of his left-hand fingers he ended up swallowing the Ero and Jack in their own shadows. That would replace them beside Hakase with Jack's staff off to side some where.

"Enjoy movie?" Tekla passed them putting oven mittens on.

"I hear what you went to see was good film." Lorre hands waiting elves a plate of cookies.

"Why are they back early?" Hakase noticed their body language.

Neither one of them was making eye contact with the other while Jack had his hood over his head and hands in pocket. Ero had his arms tucked behind him while he stared at his boot covered feet. Tekla using one her knifes could cut tension forming between the two of them. Lorre and Hakase were kind of usual to this kind of feeling that needed to be dismissed quickly.

"You two want to try these?" Hakase holds up cookies he been tasting.

Ero was first to look at the sweet treats that lay in Hakase's hands were in the shape of snowflakes and top hat. On to Jack he would stare on other side of Hakase with soft eyes knowing he had to do something. Out of Hakase's hands Ero took the snowflake shaped cookie. Going straight toward Jack not giving a chance to react when he pulled back Jack's hood, and stuffed the cookie between him lips.

"You should have been horndog." Ero mumbled to Jack.

He then pecked a kiss against Jack's cold cheek before taking hold of one his arms so he could pull him behind him. Toward a set of chairs set up for them right next to Hakase by a few Yetis by order of Tekla. Who set out glasses of milk for both of the boys with a question about what animal milk came from

"Come from goat," Tekla pats Jack's head. "Good for you."

"You had to ask..." Ero stared at Jack trying not to laugh at him.

Back in his mouth the sugar filled treat knew that pulling item out to ask what animal milk came from was bad idea. Staring at his own glass with narrowly closed eyes while biting away at the cookie as Ero sipped from his drink. Both were given the chance to sample never ending plate of differently decorated cookies. Some times Jack could be caught time to time acting out scene with a few. Before taking this one like bite giving a thumb up or down about he taste. Sometimes he held up a written on napkin that held a single number that between one and ten.

Hakase had to hand over a piece of paper or two with a ballpoint pen so Ero could use item to write. He nimble on the edges for a second before taking hold of the writing utensil to start scribbling. A few words before moving on to another cookie that hadn't been play with by Jack or taken by Hakase. When he was done with one page he turned over to blank side and started all over. Filled one whole he would hand over to Tekla and Lorre through use of Yeti delivery service.

"One of times we have him." Tekla waved the paper from side to side.

"Jack..." Lorre watched him, "Hakase anything?"

"Too much sweet, hold back chocolate, and what's with mint?" Hakase held up a half even church bell.

Jack ended up making a dung dung sound when he shook his church bell cookie intimidating actual bell. Before stuffing the whole cookie into his mouth while trying to smile at Ero with thumbs up. Hakase ended up handing Jack refilled glass out fear of him choking on uneaten cookie chuck. Knowing that Jack like him and other spirits didn't have to worry about needing to breathe. Didn't mean he still worried due over protective instincts he developed from his past.

"Drink!" Hakase advised Jack.

"You trying to kill your self again?" Ero asked Jack.

Jack ended up taking hold the refilled glass with both his hands not thinking twice it was filled with goat milk. Ended up gulping down the contains in one swig not caring if had cool touch due to his chilly touch. Before slamming the glass back on the table that hand everything bouncing into the air as he yelled out done.

"Wipe." Tekla dropped a napkin on Jack's head pointing out he has a milk mustache.

"He reminds me of my brother before his fall." Hakase sighed sadly.

"You mean General Kozmotis?" Ero whispered twirling his glass around.

Atmosphere in the room completely changed when Ero brought up the name of someone Hakase long since buried emotionally. Due to what he was pulled through in his immortal youth and unwanted responsibility. He faced head on when fighting a temptation that left him a changed man. While allowing him to form a strong parent-child bond to his only niece and last living family. Beside the love he found in the form of half-fae he would go on to take as his life partner and husband. Allowed to heal what was left of a heart shattered by the trail of Pitch's betrayal.

"We'll talk about General Kozmotis topic later." Hakase knew Ero didn't mean to bring him up.

He ended up staring at Jack in a way to not get him to start asking about who the beck was General Kozmotis. Back at him Jack stared slightly tilting his head dragging the napkin that Tekla gave him across his upper lip. Forming this strange staring contest that Ero would have joined in for interest sake.


Again Ero found Jack messing with his newest piercing by using his fingers to trance the metal earrings instead of his tongue. Cold touch of winter spirit's nimble stroke upon his outer shell of his ear always left him shivering. Not from natural chill that emanated from Jack's hand, but sensual way Jack moved over his skin. This had him slowly leaning toward the direction Jack out reached arm came from. Grin spread across Jack's face told any one watching the pair he planned for this to happen to Ero.

Instead of being interrupted like that had the second time around in public place like the theater with mortals around. Since they were tucker away in Ero's room that that had a few changes to ceiling and magical mural on the walls. Wouldn't be noticed when by the two boys' occupying Ero's bed in their nightwear ready for bed. Just before turning in Ero had to allow Jack mess with newest part of his him in slowly matter possible.

"Jack..." Ero was resorting to pleading.

"Give me a minute." Jack wasn't moving his hands away.

Ero knew if this was going to happen after he got these piercing due to his mother and how Jack was going to be aroused by this change. Meaning him getting tested by MiM for approval of being a Guardian, and prove to his mother he didn't her always watching him. Had an age-old fear of having his immorally being pulled away if he ever failed. This was something that would ruin his mood if wasn't for who he choice as a...

"I did to ask you something?" Ero fought against his rising urge to let Jack mount him and make him scream.

"You're already doing that." Jack pinched Ero's ear to make him jump slightly.

"NO! NO!" Ero pulled reached up to take hold of Jack's wrist and pulled his hand from his ear, "What are we?"

Ero knew when he stepped into his old home where he spent 300 years growing up locked away from ever changing world. Left him desperate to feel like he wasn't a sheltered child under the unruly thumb of a suppressive woman. Meant he reached for neatest distraction in the form of Jack Frost's welcomed arms. He just didn't know both of them would lose their virginity, and came out as a couple to their world of fellow Guardians.

"I thought we were boyfriends." Jack's grin wasn't disappearing.

The rest oft eh night for Ero was a blur when he pushed down on to his own bed by Jack getting on top of him. Up his shirt Jack's hand slid following a trail familiar trail of scream colored skin to pectoral. That was grasped in a gentle and circular matter massage that made rest of Ero tense up.
