Sean listened to all this and realized...Nicote seemed to have it pretty hard,at least it seemed hard to Sean to have that type of personality. And the twin thing really threw the angel/demon into a swirl of confusion,but didn't bother Ken for the information,he really didn't mind not knowing the details because it wasn't his business. "...I see...well....I personally think that he's a nice person,maybe just with a tough outer shell so to speak...as if...for safety." He said softly.

Ken nodded in agreement. "Yeah, he's like an egg. Tough on the outside but one crack and he turns out to be a giant teddy bair bear on the inside-"

"What did you just call me?" Nicote growled from behind.

Ken smirked. "An egg, Egghead."

Nicote muttered something under his breath before turning to go. Passing Sean, he said, "Stay as logn as you want. Al won't close up till at least 8."

Sean gave Nicote a faint nod,watching him for a second,but then decided that,since he'd not seen anyone hug Nicote,that maybe with how he was feeling upset that one would help. So he jogged slightly to Nicote and carefully gave him a side hug,as a friend.

Nicote stiffened at the sudden hug but then realziedwho it was ans slightly relaxed. Note: slightly. "I, uh, wha?" For once he was speehless.

Ken was taking a photo, before quickly sending out a message to some of their friends to prepare for a nuclear explosion from oneNicote Marker.

"Y-you s-seem stressed s-so I..j-just...thought I'd t-take mom's advice a-and...ya' know...I w-wanted to help." he said quietly,his tail wrapping once more tightly around his left leg,his choker pulsing still in it's timer,sped up due to low time for his wings,but it was flickering as if...to show that Sean was nervous how Nicote would respond.

Nicote thought for a moment, then shrugged. "Yeah, sure. Just....not usedto it. Besides the occasional tackle from certain sisters...." he shrugged.

Sean's tail relaxed and the flickering of his choker did as well as he realized how calm Nicote seemed to be reacting. He smiled faintly,still a bit awkward because he wasn't used to ending a hug,rather it was always his mom who broke it,she was the only one that ever hugged him,because she would always rush off and say 'Sorry Sese,I have to go and save some souls,but I'll be back in a little bit.' But a little bit to her,meant 'I'll pop back in in about a month or so,maybe two~,toodles~!' "T-then,being honest...nor am I really,just...the rare hug from mom before she goes off and "Saves souls"." He said,using " " for the mothers quote but also to say that she really didn't do any saving. She usually just flitted on back to heaven and hung out up there till she remembered her mistake of a son.

Nicote chuckled dryly. "At least you didnt get stuffed on the side for 8 years before anyone actually fiured out you existed."

(I have a weird semi-partly-half-AU of Nicotes backstory written out that's kinda creepy in a way if you wanna see what my prototype was originally before I changed it....)

Worry spread over Sean's face,his red of his eyes softening. "Oh...I-I'm sorry." He said,considering wrapping him into a full hug with both his arms,but then again worrying that Nicote wouldn't appreciate it.

(Hm,sounds interesting.Sure,I'd be interested.)
