"... What." He said in complete shock.
Berwald closed his eyes, "My 'blood'. It keeps me warm. Or cool depending on what form I am."
"... You... Why... What..."
He looked up curiously teal eyes shining, "I missed the question."
"... So you used your blood to prepare me...? Why!?"
Berwald blinked slowly up at him as though Erztio was the one being stupid, "I didn't want you to hurt."
"But its your blood!"
"So?... it's works just was well as anything... What's the problem? I take in your fluids, so it's really more of you just filtered through me." Berwald was honestly so confused
"... Never... Never mind..."
Berwald sat up softly touching he cheek, "No really what did I do wrong?"
"Nothing..."
Berwald frowned, "I'm so sorry..."
"No no it's okay! Uhm... Blood is really important for humans..."
"How?" He asked curiously
"It spreads nutrients and oxygen through our bodies... It's really important... Uhm... Humans can die if they lose."
Berwald worried hugged him, "I'm sorry, I upset you... I just get cold..."
"It's okay... On a side note... Our blood is red and not purple..."
He nodded, "Should make it easy too know when your hurt."
"Well uhm... Humans also bruise pretty easily..."
"Bruise? What's that? Does it hurt?"
"Yea uhm... Usually after a hard hit humans bruise... Uhm basically the skin turns a dark blue purple colour and is really sensitive to touch in a bad way... As in... They hurt yes..."
His eyes racked over his skin softly pulling his arm up, "D-Did I bruise you?... Last night?"
"Just a little." He pointed to some persistent reddish purple spots. "But they aren't bad at all... See these only hurt if someone presses on them."
Berwald softly kissed them holding Erztio's hand like glass, "I'll be more careful next time..." he looked so sad...
"It's okay! Really! I don't mind them at all."
Berwald blushed copying his human, "Why not?... if they hurt..."
"They don't hurt barely at all."
Berwald calmed slightly at that, "I might never understand..."
"It's okay... You'll learn over time..."
"I'll try to for you..."
"Thank you..."
Berwald softly pulled him into a hug deciding to change their topic, "Sleep well?"
"Yea... Did you?"
He nodded, "Slept a couple hours yes..."
"Was it good...?"
"Yes, very warm..." he murmured snuggling him
"That's good." He blushed a bit, a small smile on his face.
"What are the... pictures?"
"The pictures?..."
"I've never seen pictures while sleeping before..."
"Oh! Those are dreams. Uhm... It's believed that most animals on Earth have dreams but uhm people think that dreams are your subconscious's way of telling you things and how your brain relaxes and just goes over things in the day... It's really important to human function and the like."
He smiled softly, "I see... It's surprisingly pleasant..."
"It isn't always... There are these things called nightmares which aren't pleasant in the slightest."
"What's wrong with them?" He asked confused
"Well they are usually terrifying and often show you things that have either happened to you in the past that hurts you or things you don't want to happen... But they are also apparently important for humans so we can experience the intense situations without actually getting hurt..."
"Good to know... you don't have these 'nightmares' often do you?" He asked worriedly
"Occasionally... But it's normal! It would be bad if I didn't have any!" Erztio smiled, trying not to worry him.
Berwald nodded slowly, "If your sure..." he would try to make it better when it happened...
"... What do you want to do now?"
"... I want to find out more about Earth. And you..." he said thoughtfully
"Really?" He said, blushing a bit.
"I want to stay... only makes sense right?"
"Well yes." He smiled, "I'm glad you want to learn more about my home."
"Will you teach me?" He asked earnestly
"Sure! I'd be glad too."
"What would help me blend in better?" He asked turning to use Erztio's chest as a pillow, "With humans?"
"Well you blend in pretty nice already but... Humans are usually in tune with emotions more not always though."
"You'll probably need to learn how to do something in case you ever need a job... Oh and you'll definitely need to learn the nations and some general history..."
"I can find my own skill, Thank you..." he said softly not wanting to upset, "But everything else sounds reasonable."
"I wasn't going to force you into anything..."
"I know..." he whispered snuggling, "I'd... just... rather not bother you with it..."
He nodded, cuddling a bit closer himself, "Well... At least let me introduce things to you..."
"Please go right ahead." He agreed
"Alright... So I suppose the first thing that should be mentioned is that on Earth there is different countries."
"Different land?" He asked softly, "I think it is translating weirdly..."
"let's see... A country is a set of land with borders. It is run by itself and has a predominant language that is spoken there and there is more than one."
"And where are we?"
"A nation called Canada."
"Village?" He asked raising an eyebrow
"No... Canada it comes from the word Kanata which means home land."
He nodded softly smiling, "Alrigh'... And Canada is on earth."
"Yea. It's actually the second largest nation on the planet."
"Impressive." He murmured softly kissing Erztio's chest
He blushed, "Yea... Uhm... There is actually... 196 countries... If I am remembering correctly..."
He tilted his head, "Human split up a lot for being dependent on each other..."
"There is lots of people in each country so it's fine."
"Alright then... So it's city country then planet?"
"Uhm... It's actually. Town, city, country, continent and then planet. It's a bit complicated I guess..." Erztio shrugged with a slight yawn.
He shrugged back, "The Naga split based on animal shape... then into family's there is no government..."
"Ah... That's interesting..."
"It is strange... we have the same word for my people..."
"Hm. Although Naga's on earth look a bit different... And are part of myth and stories."
"Wouldn't be surprised if one had come here... you sound like a drone from space..."
"Ah... What?"
"... A colony of noisy winged creatures?"
"Ahh... Uhm... I don't know...?"
He shook his head, "It was comforting anyway, a promise of food..."
"Well... Uhm you do have food."
"And I'm so grateful... Your happy right? With this?"
"Yes... You're really allot sweeter than I first thought..."Erztio then realized that his words had come out not quite like how he meant...
Berwald blushed turning away at the theoretical slap... "I was pretty rough wasn't I?"
"It's okay! You must have been really hungry! I don't mind really!"
"Earth is so far away from my last planet..." Berwald whispered softly, "I was running on instinct... over heating to be honest..."
"It's alright... I understand... I don't think that interstellar travel would be very fast."
"Patience is required." Berwald said giving his human a half smile.
"I bet."
Berwald sighed softly, "Maybe some day you'll get to see..."
"I don't know... I don't think I really want to leave Earth..."
"Not what I meant..." he murmured slowly sitting up
"Oh... Sorry. What do you mean then?"
"... if I get hurt, well, it's instinctual too revert back to the egg..."
"... Wait... Egg?" He felt his worry spike, eggs were fragile! How was that safer!?
"Yes, it looks and feels like stone..." he described carefully, "It helps me heal and hide..."
"Ah..." That sounded better...
Berwald took Erztio's pale hand in his, "I could probably fit in your palm..."
"... That's really small..." Not much bigger than a rock...
He shrugged softly, "So... Yes, don't be surprised if that happens..."
"Uhm... Why would that happen...?"
"If you are in danger I will not hesitate to take the damage..."
"That's not necessary... I can handle my own... Against humans at least..."
"It is just the truth..."
Erztio nodded, feeling worry blossom in him. "Uhm when do you hatch?"
"Depends upon the damage... a few days to a few weeks..." Berwald said half surprised at the care in Erztio's voice...
"Oh...okay... Uhm what are you like when you hatch?"
"I would be in my snake form at first?" He asked unsure at what he was asking...
"I'm just wondering if you would have to grow up again."
He shook his head no, "I control what I look like as a human... I want to look like an adult..."
"Ah." That made sense... Although he worried. He didnt want Berwald to get hurt...
"I would be smaller as a snake..." he murmured softly
"... You would be easier to hide then... But... I still don't want you to get hurt."
"I don't want you hurt ether..."
Erztio sighed softly, snuggling him a bit. "I know..."
Berwald turned toward him belatedly noticing, "Your hairs are standing up on your arm..."
"It's just a bit chilly... Summer is starting to end and Autumn is coming."
"Your cold? I can start the fire..." he was slowly learned the little hints humans gave of their condition...
"I'll be okay." He said, pulling the blankets more snuggly around them.
He frowned worriedly, "I don't want you too get cold..."
"I'm alright. Really no need to bother yourself with it."
Berwald slowly untangled himself from the blanket and human, "I'll be back."
"Where are you going?"
"To get the fire going." He stated as though it was obvious.
"But I'm fine..." Erztio said, he didn't want to bother the alien...
"Let's try to be truthful Yes?" Berwald said softly pressing his nose to Erztio's before exiting the tent... Erztio blushed before following, holding the blanket close around him.
"Alright... Sorry..."
Berwald was on his knees carefully starting the fire... "Don't apologize, I'm supposed to help..."
"... Okay..." Erztio really didnt want to bother him... And... He had been rather comfy in the tent.
A few minutes later berwald had the fire going nicely and leaned back against the seat, "Come here, I'll warm you up."
He nodded and walked over, basking in the warmth of the fire as he leaned into Berwald's arms, snuggling the blanket. Berwald pulled him completely into his lap silently cuddling back... Erztio couldn't help but blush at the intimacy but the warmth was pleasant and he felt himself growing tired once more.
"Sleep... we can talk more with the sun..."
He nodded and after a bit of shifting to get comfortable he slid back into sleep. Berwald stayed still watching silently as Erztio stayed dreaming... eyes slowly moving, hand twitching... The man slept peacefully as he was surrounded by the warmth, happy dreams drifting through him. Berwald softly shook his shoulder as the sun slowly came up...
"mmm... Five more minutes..." He protested, nuzzling into Berwald's own shoulder. Berwald took it literally and five minutes later he softly pressed a kiss to the human's parted lips... He leaned into the kiss sleepily, purple eyes blinking open after a moment. Berwald softly led him though a rather loving french kiss, moaning softly at how delicious Erztio tasted... By the end of it Erztio was feeling much more awake... It was a nice way to wake up... But he couldn't help but blush with how gentle Berwald kept treating him. Berwald licked his lips, pulling away. "Hungry?"
He nodded, "Yea a bit. You?"
"A bit... but why don't you eat first?" He nodded, getting up and pulling out some cereal and milk to eat. Berwald watched his practiced moves slightly interested...
"Did the fire help?" Berwald asked
Erizto nodded, "Thank you..."
"I'm glad... Next time you need something... just ask Alright? We help each other right?"
"... Alright." He blushed, pouring his milk into the cereal.
"Want to sit in my lap again?" He offered
"Alright." He put the milk away and brought his cereal over as he snuggled back into the other's lap.
Berwald welcomed him easily, resting his chin on the top of Erztio's head. "Good..."
He blushed, eating his cereal. Wanting to get it while it was still crunchy and not mushy. Berwald softly started humming again, nuzzling his lovers soft hair... this was so pleasant... Erztio ate as they sat, he was a little sleepy but awake enough to still eat his cereal.
Berwald softly stretched as Erztio finished his bowl a small "Ahh..." of a sigh leaving his lips... "... What kind of games do humans have?"
"Oh... There is allot..." Erztio said, standing up and putting the bowl away after rinsing it. He sat back down in Berwald warm lap once the chore was done, "Humans have a tendency to get bored so... There is more games than I could tell you really..."
"Show me a few? Your favorite?" He asked softly, taking his hand.
"I... Don't really have a favorite..." Erztio said, "I just like to draw and stuff like that..."
"I'd like to see... My brother is artistic too..."
"Really?"
He nodded, "Very. Always had paint on him somewhere..."
He grinned, "That's nice..." He would have loved to see his art...
"Are all weak creatures artistic?"
"Uhm... No...? I'm not weak..." Erztio looked up at Berwald, that stung a bit... Erztio was definitely not weak.
"Ladon was I know... It's OK Erztio..." Berwald said tilting his head, had he really hurt his pride?...
"I'm not weak." He huffed looking up at the larger, arms crossed as he pouted lightly.
"Really?" Berwald asked raising a blonde eyebrow.
"Yea really! I can prove it..."
"How?" Berwald challenged automatically
"... How about... We spar a bit? With no tentacle tail things!"
Berwald looked over his shoulder, "I suppose..." he rumbled softly, "It is a bit of a advantage..."
"Okay." Erztio stood up and walked a bit away. "Do we have an agreement?"
"I will not use my tails to assist me in the Fight..." he said half grinning as he followed... never said anything about sex...
Erztio quickly tied his hair up before getting ready to fight. "A-alright... Come at me."
Berwald stepped forward intending to grab a handful of that handsome long hair he loved so much...
He ducked, his arm windmilling out and blocking his hand before grabbing his wrist and taking a step forward and around his leg before using his hip to throw the others legs out from under him and using his arm as leverage to push him down further.
Berwald gasped landing on his back at Erztio's feet, In a quick movement he twisted wrapping his free arm and legs around Erztio's feet and thighs trying to trip him backwards...
Erztio fell onto his back but he responded with a kick to the bottom of Berwald's jaw and pulling his legs free.
Berwald grunted pulling all the way free and moving to stand... Except the large amount of dirt on him it didn't look like he had been hurt at all...
"... If you weren't an alien you'd be out by now..."
"Your good, I'll admit I was wrong... Can you win against me though?" Only one host had done it so far... he felt this was a pretty equal fight to his last one as the troll like creature had used a room full of weapons against him...
He shrugged, "I suppose... Well I would like to."
Berwald gave a bark of a laugh, "Come here then, Put me down."
Erztio just waited, skirting around him. He was a bit evasive in his style.
Berwald tilted his head curiously... and when he didn't come Berwald ran forward like a tank
Erztio dodged around him, grabbing his arm and forcing it against his back pushing him down as he tripped him. Forcing him to eat dirt.
Berwald spat it out struggling, his free arm reached back grabbing shirt and hair attempting to drag Erztio off his person...
Erztio yelped but managed to stay in place, one hand shooting up and digging his thumb into his wrist, while it didn't hurt it did force him to let go... Erztio forced the hand down and grabbed it with his other arm, pressing both arms into Berwald's back as he sat on him.
Berwald whined softly, stilling under him... OK that hurt allot actually, With a pained sigh he let one of his tentacles out of the now smushed cavity... it wrapped up around Erztio's hips and between his legs, "Alrigght!"
He yelped, "Berwald..! ... That's cheating..."
Berwald tightened his grip on his hips, "You win! Let Go!"
He whimpered and let go, "... Did I hurt you...? Are you okay...?" He couldn't recall Berwald yelling like that before.
Berwald pulled his arms forward immediately, "I'm fine..." He tried to reassure, relax his hold on him...
"Are you really?"
Berwald double checked carefully... "Yes, I'm fine. Really..."
"... So... I win...?" He had told him he wasn't weak.
Berwald turned carefully hugging him, "Yes, You even found a weakness, I didn't even know about. I'd say you did."
"Told you I wasn't weak..." He grinned and pressed a quick kiss to his lips.
"And I believe you now..." Berwald softly started stroking Erztio's front... all the movement did nothing but make him hungry...
He gasped, "You're... H-hungry...?" He moaned a bit as he leaned against Berwald.
Berwald nodded softly kissing him again, "Yes... May I?"
"A-alright..." He murmured against his lips, this... Was nice after a fight.
Berwald grinned softly kissing down his neck, "You may not be weak but your definitely still adorable."
"Ber..." he blushed, low gasps leaving him. Berwald only said nice things to him... Well... Aside from the weak thing.
In his eyes it hadn't been mean, just what he thought was the truth... Erztio was small bright and soft... and there was nothing wrong with being that way, he offered other important skills after all. Everyone did... A second tail slowly slipped inside his pants teasing the bound man.
He moaned and shivered, pleasure working against him. "Haahh..."
Berwald started to steal his clothing, he was glad Erztio wasn't as weak as he thought... he wouldn't need as much protection... He couldn't help but blush as his skin was shown, self conscious even though Berwald hadn't cared about his scars before... He dreaded having to tell him about them. Berwald had noticed them before but... His snake form was scarred as well, and to be honest he didn't believe Erztio would Want to talk about it... so like before he ignored them in favor of the soft peeked nipples in front of him, suckling on one and pinching the other... The human moaned in pleasure, body trembling as his fingers gripped the other.
"Humans are a rather pretty species aren't they?" Berwald whispered softly rubbing him inside his shorts
"A-ah... If you... Say so..."
"I think so anyway... and so reactive..." Berwald was softly blushing, "It's like a challenge..."
"A... Challenge...?"
"To find out what Really drives you crazy..." he whispered huskily as he slowly stole his pants, sliding him ever so slowly down his hips...
He gasped, "Haahh..." God he wanted that... He wanted to know as well...
He stood taking his willing captive with him, pressing Erztio's front against a semi rough tree as wide as he was. "Spread your legs."
Erztio gripped the bark as he did as told, looking back a bit to watch Berwald. This was certainly not what he was expecting... He... Would have to be a bit more careful with asking Berwald to do things... Berwald knelt hands cupping and massaging Erztio's asscheeks...
Erztio moaned softly, back arching as he blushed. He wasn't really used to this sort of thing...
Berwald softly kissed his cheek... something wet softly pressing against Erztio's twitch hole. "...Relax..."
Erztio gasped taking shaky, deep breathes to relax. What was that...?
Berwald's pink tail slowly started thrusting in, "I want too see how much you can take..."
"W-what... Hnah..." He moaned, his back arching as he instinctively pressed back into him.
Berwald got a first rate view as he slowly pressed deeper brushing his prostate...
His head fell back as a loud moan filled with lust and want dripped from his lips, pleasure taking him by storm.
A soft scream was heard a few feet away and Berwald froze slowly turning to met the eyes of another human.
