❛I’d like to hope so, I mean it’s hard to be truly close with her…Given her affect she has on gods alike…I don’t think she’s aware of the affect she has on the likes of us…Nor do I think it’s wise for her to know.❜

He does miss her very much. “ You both still close? . . . ”

❛Course, known her for centuries. Seen her at her worst…❜

“ You know each other? . . . ”

❛You & Róta are a pair. She usually writes about her dreams and you paint them. Both sensational ways to express feelings and emotions. Put your very thoughts and dreams onto blank canvases…❜

“ My dreams, they always feel like they’re trying to tell me something . . . ” His memories been plaguing him for months now before coming here, of course he had to put his emotions into his canvas.

Donar stood quietly taking the painting in. It was remarkable. ❛It’s marvellous. Tells a story old as time…two lovers turned asunder. Always yearning for each other but never fully able to reach one another. Artist always draw inspiration from somewhere. Where did you get yours from?❜

Look at him getting all excited to show his work, he goes to find the one painting he’s most proud of. He carefully pulls out a framed painting of lovers separated from their realms yearning for each other.

❛I’d love to.❜

“ Would you like to see? . . . ”

❛What style of paintings do you do?❜

“ I do paintings now, special effects makeup back in college and high school . . . ”

❛Pretty please...?❜ Donar asked softly. ❛You always bake the best stuff...❜

Róta looked away from him. They wouldn’t give in to his puppy dog eyes. ❛Don’t you stare those puppy dog eyes that I cannae say no to...❜

❛Cmon...Just a slice or two?❜ Donar gave them his best puppy dog eyes.

❛Dream on buggerlugs...I want these to last a few days.❜ Róta shooed him. They weren’t giving up their favourite treat.

He’s subtly eyeballing the tray of freshly baked Rocky Road across the kitchen counter.

Oh so he’s an artist? He didn’t want to pry at his tattoos.

Most are from his own drawings, but yeah he’s got plenty.

❛I suppose so yeah…❜ Donar shrugged, feeling like he owed it to her after eating her out a house and home.

Róta glanced back at him, the offer was intriguing. ❛Will you treat me to Korean BBQ...?❜ They asked sheepishly.

Donar sighed throwing his head back. ❛Cmon then, I’ll buy you a two month supply of them then.❜

They can’t even look at him. He ate their monthly supply of dumplings in one sitting. He ate 30 dumplings. That’s five meals for them.

He said he was sorry. He didn’t meant to eat their dumplings.

They are moping, the utter betrayal.

He didn't know he had tattoos. Interesting.

Someone’s awake.

❛Ah, that makes sense...Still.❜ Donar slowly laid her down on the bed looking at her. ❛Bed’s comfier than the floor. Shall I turn the fan on then?❜

❛Lightly mingled nothing more...Mars & I are merely friends.❜ Róta’s eyes opened slowly glancing up at Donar. ❛ Well you are putting a being of the enteral flame into a bed… I can’t regulate my body temperature well amongst the covers, I need something cool to balance out the temperature...❜

❛I didn’t know you mingled with the Roman gods.❜ Donar stated with genuine surprise. ❛Pray tell them, what’s so bad about sleeping on a bed?❜ Donar asked curiously carrying her through to the spare bedroom, knowing better than to take her to her room. He knew she avoided it like the plague.

Róta groaned at hearing the word bed. They were terrible for falling asleep or passing out on the floor. ❛You along with Mars & Sweeney are terrible to me…Forcing me to bed…Floor’s better, you’d understand if you were a a fire-giant...❜ They muttered softly, half asleep.

Donar looked puzzled. ❛Sleeping on the floor is comfortable...? Well from where I was standing it didn’t look comfortable, a bed is comfier than the floor.❜

Róta groaned softly. ❛No…I just got comfy…❜

Donar stood, throwing his head back and letting out an exasperated sigh. ❛Everytime...❜ Donar lifts her up off the floor because who sleeps on the floor.

They are passed out on the floor.

❛Okay if you are sure...❜ Donar remained to sit on the sofa, unsure what to do with himself.

❛N-No!...Just stay put.❜ Róta stated the fear of him being near her and making her legs turn to jelly. This was most unpleasant. Their brain was barely functioning as it was just from there mere sight of his naked chest. They didn’t need to see him walking around with it.

❛Everything okay? Do you need a hand? I can help you look?...❜ Donar asked rather obvious to what effect he was having on Róta.

❛Oh Satan you are testing me today...❜ Róta had to force themselves to turn away from Donar before they acted on their impulses. Their womanly urges were rising within them. ❛Just sta-...Stay there Donar. I’l- I’ll find you clo-clothes…❜ Róta stuttered attempting to focus on the task at hand.

❛Ah well this is awkward...❜ He has no clean t-shirts to wear as he’s just threw them all in the washing machine.

Donar shrugged, popping his 8th sweet in his mouth, a mini snickers bar. ❛I don't know...❜

Róta had a wee graze of the chocolate earlier, it made them a tad bit sick, truthfully. ❛I don't know how you can eat so many, i've only had about 4 four, and they've made me ill.❜ Róta was more a savoury snacker than a sweet snacker.

❛Ooops...❜ He didn't know. ❛I've not touched any of the bounty's...❜ Donar put his hands up. He knew they were Róta's favourite.

That's their box of birthday chocolate. ❛Ho you...You better leave me the bounty's.❜
