A Dash of Chili Powder

Amaya looked down at the little boy hugging her ankles and blinked, leaning down to gently pat his head. "Please get off of me."

"Vell, you dickhead! We're not mongrels!" Yuki snapped, swiping her claws at Vell even though he wasn't close to her. She drowned at him, Kiba leaning his head on her shoulder with same angered look on his face. He was frowning, snarling even.

"Yeah, just because we're like animals, doesn't me we ARE animals," he agreed. "Besides, you're the one with ears!"

"I know!" 

"Yuki, your uncle is sooooo mean."

"I know. He's a big, catty meanie."

"A dickhead."

"An asshole!" Yuki quipped, agreeing with Kiba.

"Rage-kun, could you peel Awaji off of me? He won't let go," Amaya asked softly, looking up at Rage with the most unconsciously adorable look on her face.

[Lame reply v.v]

[Again, I've seen lamer. XD]

Vell was facing the wall away from Yuki and Kiba, hitting his head against it. "Who fed them stupid juice this morning. It was you, wasn't it." A blatant look at Scythe, who raised his hands in mock defense.

"You are being a little snappy today, Vell-kun," he offered with a grin.

"I'm not just being snappy. I'm being bitchy. Today is full-blown dickhead day," he grouched. He turned back to the feral couple and quirked a brow at them, ear twitching. "Anything else you wanna get off your chests before we go? -__-"

Rage pried Awaji off of Amaya with a few bows of apology, flushing. Once again, he did not know why he was embarrassed. She'd just looked at him. Said his name, and looked at him-- 

With the most adorable expression he'd ever seen.

"Arigatou, Nee-san," Awaji blubbered after Rage deposited him in a kitchen chair and leaned over the sink, face red and steaming.

[It's okay, Momo-kun, it's okay. >w<]

Me

[Momo-kun :3]

Amaya gave the tall, black-haired teen a small nod of thanks and cooed quietly, "Rage-kun." She gently pat Awaji's head, acknowledging his thanks, and gazed up at the afermentioned older boy, purple eyes absently widening and glazing over with cuteness.

"Vell-jisan! Shut up!" Yuki snapped, smacking at his stomach with her claws out.

Her uncle was being very rude. Someone had to keep him in check. And he decided that SHE was going to do it. Mhmm. She nodded inwardly, continuing to smack him. 

"Seeing you pathetically smack an older guy is almost hot, Yuu~" Kiba purred playfully, his own clawed hands dragging down the top of the albino's neck and along the curve of her shoulder. He smiled at her shiver.

"...Can I kill him and not get in trouble, Vell-jisan?"

"I'd have done it for you earlier - I just thought you didn't want him dead," Vell stated blandly, ear twitching in slight irritation as his stomach was harassed by Yuki's barrage. Honestly, it was like a rabbit trying to punch a rhinoceros. He shrugged. "Hurry up and kill 'im so we can go."

"Naa, Amaya-san," Scythe called to the purple haired girl with a smile, "you're gonna make Rage-kun go into a panic attack. He's not used to people paying him any attention."

">///<" Rage didn't say as he turned his face away from Amaya, ears red.

Scythe chuckled knowingly. "Waji-Waji, hurry up and choose a cake. And thank Amaya-san again. That was really nice of her."

Awaji bolted for the fridge and threw another "arigatou" over his shoulder. His only focus now was on which cake he should eat. Except, of course, the one with Amaya's name on it. He finally settled on the triple chocolate one and scuttled to open it at the table.

Vell's eyes locked on it immediately. "Can I have some?"

Not even a second to consider before Awaji squeaked: "Get your own. >A>"

[Vell, Vell, you greedy bastard. Of course Awaji's not much better. XD]
