All better... Er. Again.
Characters: Kentar, Aikuen
Location: Moledeep; Berke's Shed
Aikuen is outside today. Not by the pond like he normally would be. But by the shed. Working on the cart. Since the incident he has stayed away from the stoats. As a matter of fact. Been away from most beasts, except for his family. Let everyone cool down. The cart is almost done with. The four wheels as been put on. The seats. All that really need to be done is the resin coat. And the axle grease. Aik sits on the cart, in one of the seats as he bounces up and down. Smiling at his work.
And then Kentar appears. He's carrying a pack on his back, frowning to himself as he heads straight for Aikuen, the stoat not looking pleased at all as he stops. "Aikuen." he says almost indifferently.
Aikuen looks up when the stoat appears. On his nose a white bandage is attached to his blueish nose. But the otter still smiles, "Hey Kentar. What can i do yah for?" he asks.
Kentar puts the pack lightly on the ground in front of Aikuen. "Your leaving..." he says but then pauses, grinning almost evilly. "...for a few minutes so you can snack on sandwiches I made!" he nods once. The stoat then chuckles and smiles.
Aikuen blinks heavily at his first words. He wasn't planing on leaving. Nor can anyone make him. No matter what he did. He was about to rebuttal when the stoat says the next thing. He blinks again and is open mouthed for a good while until he finally jumps off the cart and embraces the stoat in a big fat ottery sized hug, "Aww! Matey!" he grins.
Kentar huhs and oofs as he's hugged, the stoat trying to pry the otter off him without much success. "Uh...okay...can you...I dunno. Get off me?" he asks, chuckling a little bit, going to try and tickle his way to freedom. "Robin convinced me not to be mad anymore." he nods. "But you still deserved the punch!" he nods once.
Aikuen wont let go! And the tickles just makes him laugh and squeeze harder, "No! Never! Not letting go!" he chuckles and finally puts the stoat back on the ground and then shakes his head, "My wife and kids greatly disagree. And sides! I didn't know that your tail was still bothering. I only figured it out, AFTER it happened... Or else we would have something different!" Gotta give him that at least.
Kentar hums a little and nods. "Well, thats them. I think you did." he nods. "Imagine if I did something that made you think you might die." he nods. "How would you feel?" he asks. "Trust me, if the broken nose of yours was the worst thing that happened, we're good." he nods. "Anyways!"
Aikuen hums back, "I did not know. You have never told me that it did. And im not your tail. I thought when i healed it, that would be end of it. I swear." He then shakes his head, "You have done that to me on multiple occasions. So i dont have to imagine." he then rolls his eyes, "If you broke anything more. There would be someone new in the Infirm. I promise you that." he nods and rifles through the sack, "Yes. Anyway."
Kentar hums a little and sighs. "Well. That eastern shore thing was different.' he nods. "I didn't have a family then. I do now. I got scared then angry. And I figured if I punched Fira, you'd have killed me for sure. So your nose took the blame instead." he nods and sits down. "So yeah. There are some sandwiches and a flask of fresh, hot tea!" he smiles.
Aikuen winks, "Actually... It was Venei's idea. She wanted to sneak up and pull on your tail. Fira just performed the deed." he chuckles and nods, "Also. If you didn't walk away. I would have socked you back, Then Fira would have hit you. And, forbid, Ella. She was mad as hell, when you hit me..." he laughs then shrugs at the eastern shore thing. That was only ONE of the moments that has happened, "And you Frighten the crap out of Venei. When you hurt me. You hurt my family...I need you to apologize to her..." he pulls out and sandwich and goes to sit on the cart, "Mmm. Smells good."
Kentar nods slowly and sighs as he thinks. "Well. I already did." he nods. "On my way out, after I did the sandwiches. I told them I was sorry." he hums. "I also explained why I did it. Not sure they quite understood it." he hums then nods. "They are." he smiles. "I made them myself! Just be careful of the poison." he winks with a smirk.
Aikuen pats the spot next to him for the stoat to sit down on, next to him, "Ah good. Thanks matey. And I told Fira what was wrong. She understands. But is still not happy about what you did. But she has gotten around that. You notice that things are Exceptionally clean?" he snorts before taking a few bites, "Oh yeah! Fish snagich!" he waddles his feet about like a dibbun.
Kentar chuckles a little and nods. "And I'm sure you understand why I broke your nose." he nods with a hum. "But don't worry. I'm not...mad at you anymore. Not much anyways." he hums. "You can thank Robin for that."
Aikuen hrms, "Kinda. I know why you were mad. Thats still no reason to relocate my nose to a higher part of my face. Until you gave me a reason." he chuckles and its his poisoned sandwich, "Well. Im still mad at you" Another bite, "Mmmm. Good sandwich."
Kentar nods slowly. "Well, you can be as mad at me as you want." he nods. "I still think you deserved it." he nods. "Even more since you laughed at me afterwards." He nods as he folds his arms and leans back slightly.
Aikuen nods, "Okay. That i am sorry for. I thought YOU were being YOU, and didn't really know that you were hurt. Cause i didn't know that your tail bothers you! See!" he snorts, "You can Punch me, for something stupid that i did. But don't hurt me if i have no idea what i did. And i was thinking you punched me for the sake of punching me. Cause that's what it felt like when you did" he waves a sandwich at him, "That's why im mad at you."
Kentar nods slowly. "Well. I wouldn't have punched you if something wasn't wrong." he nods. "Not in front of your kids like that." he hums a little bit. "I know you didn't mean for that to happen, but still." he sighs. "Got scared. Shouldn't have punched you but I thought you knew and didn't say anything." he nods.
Aikuen smiles and goes back to eating, "Well. I didn't know. Cause if i did. We wouldn't have pulled on your tail. I love you, like a brother. And wouldn't do anything to hurt you. You know that. And i know, you know that. That's what hurts me..." he noms for a few seconds before saying, "I know how to make it all better..." he laughs.
Kentar chuckles and nods slowly, sighing as he slides his arm around Aik's shoulder and gives it a pat. "You are my brother. Well. Mostly." he chuckles before tilting his head and humming a little. "What?" he asks, tilting his head.
Hug attack! Aik likes hugs. And must share, "You are more of a brother, then if i actually HAD a brother." he snorts and holds out his schnoze, "I want you to apologize. To my nose. You don't have to kiss it better. But it has to be nice one" he grins still holding out his nose.
Kentar huhs and erks, hugging back a little bit then blinks at Aik's request. "W-what?" he huhs and shrugs. "Er...sorry?" he thinks for a moment and nods, thinking about how weird that sounded.
Aikuen chuckles and winks, "Ah, you are gonna have to do better then that! You moved it from its home! It was quite happy in the middle of my face! Its sacred and cold." he laughs, "Gonna have to try harder!"
Kentar huhs. "Sorry!" he says before trying to tickle the otter off of him yet again. "I said I was sorrry!" He smirks a little and shakes his head. "You great silly thing!"
Aikuen sticks out his tongue, squirming at the tickle, "Ahh! Okay okay! My nose accepts your apology!" he laughs, "I is girt silly things! Its just how i likes it!" he tries to tickle the stoat back.
Kentar huhs a little and erks, laughing as he pushes Aik away from him. "Erg, stop that!" he laughs before standing. "Anyways. I'm going to go finish my chores." he nods. "I'll see you again later, Aik." He smiles as he heads off.
Aikuen smiles as he is shoved off landing on his butt. The cart bouncing up and down, "Heh..." Once more, a hug, "I will see you later then. And thank you. And thanks for the sandwichs!" he laughs going back to eating and waving off the stoat.
