"So I've been thinking...maybe we find a nickname for you?"

They were sitting below the right Library staircase, each Gootrax sitting on one bean bag couch and made comfortable by a assortment of surrounding of pillows . Leon cocked his head at Lapis. "Nickname? Like the dumb ones you Gootraxians have?" He lightly teased the Kaiju.

"For your information, they're not 'dumb'. I think it's a rather nice tradition we Gootrax have!" He replied with an mock offensive tone.

Leon shrugged. "Still kinda stupid. You can't change my mind."

"Well, we're doing it anyway. How do you think about something gemstone related?"

The larger (yes, Leon) male flicked his tail. "Sure, and it probably should be purple!"

"Yes, purple. Hm, what gemstones are purple?" Lapis answered his own question. "I mean, amethyst, of course, but that's a bit bland, don't you think so?"

"Well, I like it. But if you really want to get creative, then go ahead." Lapis responded with a nod of his head. "Maybe Agate? Nah, that sounds weird. Sapphire? They can occasionally be purple. No, Sapphire doesn't sound right. Quartz? Ehh, sounds pretty, but is never really purple."

He had debated with himself like that for awhile, constantly giving suggestions then scrapping them almost immediately until he were fresh out of ideas.

"Why, in the everlasting fuck, is it so hard to just find a name?" Lapis flopped down, irritated. Leon tried not to let the surprise show, but it leaked through his expression anyway. Fritz never runs out of ideas with the constantly busy mind he has.

"Dunno, maybe there just aren't enough gems that you like. Or maybe you're just lacking knowledge."

"You're saying I'm stupid?"

"Exactly! I'm brilliant, compared to you!" Leon puffed out his chest. Lapis just chuckled and jokingly flicked him in the forehead.

"You know I love you, right?" The smaller Gootrax muttered, barely out of earshot.

Leon blinked at him a few times. "What? I didn't catch what you just said."

"Nothing! You heard nothing. Ooo, woo, hypnotization. It was all in your mind!" Lapis waved his paws around Leon's face. Now it was Leon's turn to chuckle at the scene before him.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, Leon yawned. "Well Fritz, I think your 'hypnotization' thing is really getting to me! I'm afraid I must now take a nap."

Lapis giggled. "Noooo! I demand you to stay awake so we can hang out longer!"

Leon closed his eyes and wrapped his arms around himself, tail unbeknownstly [(a/n: is that a word or- )] wrapped around the other's. "Nope, going to sleep, g'night" Then he fell asleep almost immediately.

Once Lapis made sure that Leon really was asleep, he leaned his head onto the other's shoulder and slid his paw into the Panther-Carneline hybrid's. Then he sighed.

"I love you, Leon. I just wish I had the guts to tell you."
