What a Magnificent Mane! (Oriel)

[Deleted]

As soon as the other boy had been tossed into the pond, Oriel turned his attentions to Forrest, who was already beginning to see that Oriel was after him next. Oriel gave the boy the few moments he needed to set down the camera before giving chase.

Around the pond, around the trees, Oriel wondered just what kind of new adventurous chase the other twin would give him. Would he be as easy to corral as the other? Guess he'd find out.

Oriel ran after Forrest, keeping on his keels just like he did the last one. Of course, Oriel was getting a little tired, so he was definitely moving slower and breathing harder than before. He could probably keep it up…probably. Maybe.

Or he could trip and fall on his face because he got too excited and wasn't' watching where he was stepping.

Which he did.

[Forrest & Skye Cheng]

Forrest was thankful the guy had gave him a minute to set aside his precious camera; he wasn't sure if he would, given what he had just done to his brother. But it was fine! Fine, fine, he was being chased by a rabid teenager acting like a five-year-old, but all was fine!

He dodged and weaved between the brush, trying to make false moves to throw his hunter off his trail, but it didn't work - Oriel was still catching up. They passed by Skye on the other side of the pond, who had clambered out of the water and was watching with a sort of smug grin as his brother got chased.

Forrest, at least, didn't scream. .... As much. He still yelped a bit as Oriel got closer.

But just as they were about to pass around a corner again - Forrest looked back to see Oriel trip!

"HAH!" he yelled, dashing over and placing a foot on Oriel's back, effectively pinning him in place with the increased strength he and Skye got from being around each other.

Skye, already knowing what he was planning, darted to his side with a manic grin on his face. "Let's see how the kitty likes the water, hmm?"

With their combined strength, they hefted Oriel easily up from the ground, keeping his limbs from flailing around as they scuttled over to the water's edge and tossed him in.

"How does it feel, gorgeous?" Forrest teased, strutting around on the water's edge.

... Until he lost his footing and stumbled into the water, too.

Skye his his palm against his face.

Oh, no!

This lion has slipped up! Literally!

"Ooof!" Oriel played up that grunt a little more than usual as he was suddenly pinned by a strength that did not match with the size of the skinny twin. And before he could muster up the strength(yeah, right!) to push Forrest off, Sky had swooped in and the both of them had nabbed the ferocious lion and were quickly carting him towards the lake.

"Oh, you are not going to---at least take out my cell phone!" he advised. "Back pocket. That shit's expensive!"

Oriel hit the water with a slight sting on his face and limbs. He quickly swam up and broke his head above the surface with a "Fuck! That's cold!" before turning to yet another splash.

The other kid was gone, and there was a tell-tale ripple from where Forrest had obviously fallen in. Oriel laughed so hard he was getting pond water in his mouth. He would have pointed too, but was too busy swimming himself to the edge where he hefted himself out, dripping a river out behind him.

He briefly touched his neck to make sure the chain on his locket was still there.

Then Oriel promptly peeled off his shirt so he could squeegee it out in the grass. "Fuck…just look what you did! Hope it was worth it, you little hyenas." He may have been scowling and glaring at the boys, but his eyes were obviously full of mirth.

[Forrest & Skye Cheng]

Now that the threat was gone, both of the twins were back to being their dorky, mischievous selves, and giggled at Oriel's exaggerated responses. Skye made sure to snake his hand down Oriel's back pocket (giving a small squeeze in the process, 'cause why not?) and take out his phone before they chucked him in the pond.

And then they were both cackling until Forrest's fall into the pond, whereupon he floundered to the surface and yelped at his "bad luck".

"Yeah, it is cold, isn't it?" Skye teased, sticking his tongue out at Oriel as he kept a safe distance from the water's edge. He had learned his lesson, although he felt the shock of his senses from Forrest falling into the water, too. He was still dripping wet, too, but hadn't had the sense to take off his shirt and wring it out like Oriel was.

Oooooh~!

As soon as Forrest clambered out of the water and got a look at what Oriel was doing, he swooned and nearly fell back into the pond, pinwheeling his arms as he fought against falling backwards.

"You gotta warn a person before you do that, you might blind them!" he chided, taking note of the smart idea and pulling his own shirt off, revealing a thin, lean and lanky figure as he tried to squeeze out the water before pulling it back on.

"And the camera is all the way over on the other side of the pond," Skye pouted. He'd have to run back over there if he wanted to record Oriel's glorious, dripping torso, but he didn't want to miss anything!

"Totally worth it," Forrest added as Oriel spoke, grinning broadly as he sidled up close to the other boy and nuzzled against his bare skin. Even if Oriel tossed him back in the pond, it'd be worth it.

[Deleted]

"Hey! Did you just…?" Of course he did, but Oriel didn't have time to protest much more to the grope before he hit the water.

Oriel wasn't too bothered by the water. A little water never hurt nobody…unless you were a lead weight like some sheltered people he knew. But it was cold, and while Oriel didn't mind it too much, he still wasn't looking forward to having to dry off in the fall air.

Yeah, he was definitely taking a shower when he got back to his dorm. Maybe he'd nab Phen first though.

As the two boys gave their heckles, Oriel just looked over at them with a deadpanned face, holding his dripping shirt between his hands as he prepared to wring it out. He let one end of the shirt drop, freeing up one hand, and rubbed his nipple at them, his face completely stoic save for a hint of tongue sticking out between his lips.

He returned to squeezing out his shirt of the water, completely ignoring the nuzzling he was getting from Forrest. The twins were like flies, bugs that were barely beneath his notice. If he ignored them, they'd probably go away eventually.

Though they had been fun to chase.

[Forrest & Skye Cheng]

Skye ran over to the other side of the pond and grabbed the camera where Forrest had left it, running back over just in time to see Oriel drop one side of his shirt and rub himself, which gave them both another jolt of oh-my-goodness!

They needed to find this guy more often. He got their hearts racing in more ways than one.

"You're fun to play with, Kitty," Forrest told him, though pouted as his affections were ignored. Skye sidled closer as well, neither of them quite ready to leave the boy alone yet.

"Yeah, I can't wait to check out this film," he gushed, motioning towards the camera. "So much action!"

Yes, they were acting like the whole thing had been planned. It obviously hadn't, but it was all the same to them - great footage was great footage, even if they had made fools out of themselves!

"You should help us edit it," Forrest smirked, though they would never actually let someone touch their video editing programs. He could always give them extra snippets of video, though...

[Deleted]

Oh good. His spectacular strip-tease had gotten on camera. Well, he had to give these twins credit for professionalism. And they were certainly much better company than a couple of other specifically blonde twins(fuck, there sure we're a lot of twins here at this school).

Oriel was deliberately ignoring their affections. They were annoying little attention whores, they didn't need any encouragement. Oriel should know.

"Mrooow," was all he responded with.

So much for ignoring them.

But now he was interested. "Hey, Oompa, Loompa, think you could get that on a disc for me?" He kind of wanted to see how he looked on camera. No, he was not a narcissist.

"Fuck no, I ain't gonna help you, I know shit about computers," he admitted with surprising ease. Theist he knew was how to browse a couple programs and get on a few web pages(specifically, YouTube). He stuck out he tongue at one of them with a "bleh".

[Forrest & Skye Cheng]

Both of the twins giggled simultaneously at the cat noise, before Skye decided to finally stop recording and flipped the camera down. They had gotten enough... For now.

Forrest quirked an eyebrow as Oriel asked for the footage. "Maaaaaybe," he replied, rolling backwards onto the heels of his feet.

"What'll we get out of it?" Skye added with a mischievous grin. Though, they both knew they were probably playing a dangerous game - Oriel could easily throw them some threats and they would be putty in his hands. They acted tough, but they were (obviously) very easily frightened.

They usually popped out of it pretty fast, though. Hell, they were still dripping wet from their little adventure, but here they were messing with him again.

"D'aw," Forrest sighed dramatically. "Well, we'll certainly have fun editing it ourselves, then."

Oh the things they could do, most of which would probably never see the light of day...

[Deleted]

"I ain't got shit for money, but I'll barter. What do you want for it?" Oriel wasn't one to shy away from doing anything particularly embarrassing, so unless whatever they asked for required some level of academic prowess, Oriel was probably good for it. He folded his arms and stood over them like a grandmaster, a smirk still touching the corners of his lips.

This had been a pretty fun encounter...not that he'd say that out loud.

He flipped his wet shirt over his shoulder, leaving his toned chest bare for the world to see, with that shiny little locket hanging from it's thin chain around his neck, and his sword tattoo exposed across his back. His dark, brown hair was starting to curl as it dried from wet to damp. He'd just have to deal with his pants still being doused until he could get back to the dorms and change them.

"Yeah, whatever, have fun with that. Where's my phone?" He glared between the two of them accusingly.

[Forrest & Skye Cheng]

"We don't need money! Skye chirped. They got a decent allowance from their parents, enough not to have yet started looking for jobs, though they were sort of interested. They didn't know how someone would react to a gestalt pair looking for work.

"Maybe just some more footage. Shirtless. And with... Some sort of script," Forrest suggested with a sly grin. Ahh, the fun they could have with that... Though, they might squabble over who got to do what with the boy. Even though technically whatever happened to one happened to the other, tactile sensations were still important to the only partially-synced pair.

They had both noticed his tattoo (at the same time of course), and stared at it with undisguised delight, but said nothing. Ahh, they wanted tattoos so bad~!

"Oh, this?" Skye replied, pulling out the device. Before giving it back to Oriel, he quickly went to "New Contact" and pressed in their number, grinning as he handed it back.

"Call us anytime~" Forrest cooed, though they both knew it was unlikely that he would unless he really did want that footage. In which case, they would be more than happy to work with him.

[Deleted]

"Good," he confirmed with a snort. But apparently they wanted more footage of him…with his shirt off. And a script? Would that require reading or something to that effect? Oriel snorted again. "Yeah, sure, whatever you want. Just tell me the when, where, and what." He had to admit he was really interested to see how any new, scripted footage might turn out. Though if they made him actually read from a script, he'd tell them to blow off…that or make Phoenix read it to him first.

Oriel sent a steely glare at the one who dared to input a new number into his phone as if they were friends or something. Ah, well, whatever. Wasn't like he had many contacts in the first place. "Yeah, sure. When I'm not busy, fucking, or napping." Which he did all day, every day. Meh, maybe he'd call. Or just track them down.

He flipped his wet hair back to stick against his neck and smirked at the twins, sticking his tongue out once again for a final farewell before starting back towards the dorms. Shit…Phoenix was going to love this.
