troublemakers

<div align=center>Levi was absolutely not happy about this. He'd have rather been absolutely anywhere but here right now, I don't need a date. Who says I can't get one on my own? Not that Levi was all that accustomed to taking people out on dates, regardless of gender. He tended to skip straight to homebase rather than partaking in all of courtesies that happened before. It was much quicker that way, and besides, it was funner. There was only one thing relationships were good for anyway, right? "Why are we doing this?" He asked, an accusing tone in his voice directed heavily at Tyberius. "What are you trying to accomplish, anyway?"

Levi couldn't fall in love. Incubus weren't supposed to fall in love, not really, anyway. He became infatuated with others, of course, but he'd never been in love. Not once. Good. The corners of his mouth turned down into a small, displeased little frown. "What are you talking about?" The demon asked, "if they're out on a date doesn't that mean they're already in a relationship - I mean, not that it matters - but don't you think we caused enough trouble?" Of course they hadn't, who said they were going to cause trouble, anyhow?</div>

Yang Ji Hye

The park was a nice place, even though she didn't like frequenting places where she had chained spirits to herself in the past. But her roommate the princess despised the place and Ji Hye knew that her hatred made the place safe ground. In a certain sense, anyways. She didn't think that Eric came to the park that much, so of course her spirits were around. This place, however, marked one of those areas where they could simply spread out and pretend that each other existed.

It was a little unusual, but Ji Hye was truly alone for once. Even Imouto had gone off on its own, too visit some friendly local spirits. The girl had encouraged it, really. As much as she liked having it around, she wanted to remember for once what solitude felt like. It had just been so long.

She wandered on the path a little, following the tugs on her spirits' chains to let them explore more. It felt wrong not to let them have that bit of freedom, even though at the same time, she couldn't forget what some of them were.

Any trained shaman or summoner would probably tell Ji Hye to be more strict on them but she just couldn't bring herself to. She wasn't that strong or confident of a person and it showed in the way that hugged herself in public, head ducked down as if trying to disappear from sight.

<div align=center>"What task?" The demon asked, skeptically, liking this outing less and less. Unfortunately he hadn't really had any kind of way of saying no. Tyberius was awfully good at manhandling him. Levi was very little and Ty was quite the opposite of that. He had the tendency to grab his horns and pull his tail, and poor Levi really didn't like having his tail pulled. That hurt. Yanking on his horns was better than yanking on his tail, at least. That was more of an irritation than anything else, his horns were completely welded to his skull. There's no pulling them off. Then again, he hoped there was no pulling his tail off, either.

"If you don't know what they look like, how are we going to find them? How do you know if they even showed?" Levi couldn't really imagine Tyberius calmly negotiating something with anyone, Levi didn't even recall him ever leaving the dorm room apart from in the company of himself. Does he even go to lessons? What does he study? I don't know anything about him, he's so damn mysterious. He stared at Ty for a moment, face more or less completely blank. "I don't think I'm the idiot in this situation."</div>

Yang Ji Hye

Nature spirits were hiding in the bushes as she walked passed them, not that Ji Hye could fault them for it. They had probably heard of how her power had accidentally lashed out the last time she had been there. To her shame, it hadn't even taken that much of a trigger; she had simply panicked and it had happened. Even if the kitsune ever forgave her for it -and she wouldn't, that was a fact- Ji Hye probably wouldn't have forgiven herself. She should have known better. She thought she had, too.

I don't know anymore, the girl thought with a sigh. And as odd as it was, her mind was going to even more depressing places than it would have had her spirits been around. Most of them were terrifying, yes, but that normally meant that she was too scared to be sad. Life is strange. And it just so happened that Life took thoughts like that as a challenge.

Before she knew what was happening, there was a person by her side. So surprised that somebody was actually talking to her, Ji Hye only made a short sound of protest as she was dragged away and dropped in front of a boy with wings and horns, whose aura felt a lot like a spirit's. A spirit who looked like a really pretty boy. So pretty, actually, that she was convinced that something was up. Since that was the general situation of her life, it didn't really mean all that much.

"Um, hello?" she said, faltering as usual in the presence of strangers. The next words that came out of the hornless boy's mouth left her blushing. "Um, date? A-are you sure you have the right person?" What was happening? Just the mere proposition made her head spin a little.

<div align=center>Sure enough, this girl was actually shorter than him. Though only by an inch or so. That made Levi frown all over again, even if they're shorter than me, it's barely noticeable. How embarrassing. "Dude, you can't just force people to date--" He broke off, his frown deepening, realizing that was exactly what he did on a daily basis - almost at least, Tyberius was enough distraction from hauling people back to his bed to... Well, do exactly what incubi did best. In actual fact, these people were almost always male. Levi seldom had anything to do with girls, though not that he'd ever admit that. He'd come up with the excuse in his head that girls would die if they slept with him - of course this wasn't true at all, and merely something Levi used as a cover up. Tyberius knew nothing of any of this, luckily. At least, he didn't yet.

The girl that had been placed in front of him was younger than him, evidently, Levi guessed she was no more than seventeen years old, perhaps even younger. "Uhm." He let out a short trail of laughter, lifting an eyebrow and glancing upwards at Tyberius, "you've got to be kidding me, right?" There was something odd about this girl, something... "what the hell are all these crazy pets you've got goin' on?"</div>

Yang Ji Hye

Befuddled, Ji Hye stared at their two joined hands. For one, again, this was a total stranger. And for another, again, this total stranger was pretty. She was certain that this winged boy would have been ten times prettier than her even if all the preparation he had was rolling straight out of bed. It took the girl a little while longer to realize it but she was staring blatantly at his perfect face.

Ducking her head and blushing deeply in embarrassment, she turned back to the other boy. "Um, I don't think tha-that dates work this way," she said meekly. "I mean, um. Who are you two, anyways? We haven't met, ha-have we?" Since they were far too close for comfort -and because she could feel the spiritual aura around him- Ji Hye shuffled a distance away from the winged boy, breaking their forcibly clasped hands apart.

When that winged boy mentioned something about pets, she thought that he was talking to his friend... Until she remembered that other spirits could notice her chains. "They're not pets," the girl corrected in weak uncertainty. "They, I just- My magic accidentally lashes out sometimes when I'm scared. It doesn't happen very much now..."
