2Busted!
Sakura smiled as she walked into the small apartment Fye had "convinced" the owner to let them stay. She had no idea what he did-Kurogane seemed to know-but she was grateful none-the-less. Walking to the small living room, she was ready to put the flowers she'd picked up on her way there, but found something interesting in the room. Kurogane was kneeling on the ground behind Fye, the wizard's shirt off and on the couch.
"So, you had a mark here?" Kurogane asked, hands firmly gripping the slim man's elbows so he couldn't leave.
Fye nodded, "Yes." Odd, one-word answers weren't normal for the blonde.
"From that Ashura?"
"Yes."
Kurogane frowned, staring hard at the man's back, trying to ignore the erg to lean over and lick along the dipping line that was Fye's spine. "What was it for?" Fye was silent for a second before he chuckled, shoulders shaking in a way that looked like he was sobbing instead.
"Control." he said softly. "Over my powers." he quickly added so it wasn't an entire truth, Kurogane wouldn't notice.
"Oh..." The ninja stared at the man's shoulders now thanks to that chuckle. He idly wondered if the man would taste like vanilla, he smelt like it after all. An icy, frosted vanilla, like ice cream or something. "That's why you don't use magic then?"
"Ding, ding, ding! Kuro-pon is so smart!" Fye smiled as he turned his head. His smile turned to a grin. "Hello, Sakura-chan!"
Review please. Note: The mark was the bird-like tatoo that Fye gave to the Witch.
