To be honest, Sting didn’t know how to make that drink properly, just knew the ingredients and how Yukino made it — she was the one who had the idea, Sting just added the chocolate and, ta-dahh, a new drink. She also used to mix it for others and people seemed to like it a lot what wasn’t expected but positive, of course.
Another smile was there, then he turned around and started to get everything he needed— he forgot some spices, but all in all, it was done. Now he needed to mix it and put in an ice cube and…
“There you go!”
He merely regarded the dragon slayer in silence, how he prepared the mixture almost passionately. Freed had to admit that he did have some troubles keeping a small chuckle from his face but in the end he managed and eyed the liquid in curiosity once Sting served him the drink.
Then he finally proceeded to take the first sip. The extraordinary flavor caught his interest and his brows furrowed lightly. Not because the taste was to his dislike though rather for he focused on it entirely for a moment. Hence, it was no surprise that Freed’s features lightened up slightly, just enough to be taken note of, and his greenish blue gaze went back to fixing the blond.
“Interesting.”
There was a short pause though it wasn’t his intention to keep Sting on tenterhooks. He seemed pretty excited still. So the rune mage gave a subtle smile at last, bringing the glass up to his lips once more.
“I must say that it really does have a nice taste.”
Now there was excitement on the slayer’s face, quickly letting go of the Fairy Tail mage before he kinda rushed behind the bar and pointed at the seat with a ‘sit down!’, but before he could even make sure that Freed did so (he would serve him anyways), the blond turned around and pulled out three bottles, excitedly clang them against eachother.
“We have wodka, beer, tequila!”
Before the greenet could even respond, he swung around again and put the bottles away, now rummaging in the shelves and he pulled out four more bottles, eyes glancing as if he was really proud what his guild actually had to offer.
“There’s also every kind of juice, Fiorean’s water, tea and also a spicy dark chocolate drink which is our own mixture and drank cold!”
A tinge of amusement sparked up in greenish blue eyes as he observed Sting rushing off to towards the bar. Freed registered his inviting gesture and he didn’t hesitate to follow, briefly brushing his hands along himself to straighten his attire before he took a seat right at the counter.
In his mind he already turned down the wodka and tequila, not ready to consume liquid with a higher amount of alcohol in it at this time of the day. He might consider beer though as it was something he drank on occasion (but wine would always remain his favorite).
The rune mage wasn’t much of a drinker and his tolerance for alcohol was almost ridiculously low. Yet, whenever the guild partied or he found that part of him wanted to get something alcoholic for whatever reason it could easily transpire that he drank more than he should. One drink would definitely do no harm, however.
Finally nodding when the blond was ready listing the possibilities it didn’t take the Captain long to settle for an option and he gave a small smile, assuming that Sting would most likely feel proud to be able to present the creation of his own guild. And spicy sounded good anyway.
Still, he appreciated the other’s words a lot. It was nice to hear such words from time to time, especially when they were meant honest. The slayer gave off a bright smile before he slid closer and just wrapped an arm around the rune mage, all of his happiness written over his entire face right now as he chuckled over-happily.
“You cool, as I said. Now, wanna drink somethin’? We have good stuff here!”
Sting was honestly grateful for his response, huh? More than grateful actually, Freed noticed as he studied the blond’s facial expression. Happy, he was happy, and on top of that he seemed to actually enjoy his compay?
Freed’s own mien had gone back to being one of neutrality, shoulders twitching lightly as the other male casually proceeded to wrap his arm around him. He huffed, the sound being forerunner for the hint of a smile at last and he fixed his cyan gaze on Sting again as he replied. Looked like he at least managed to soothe the dragon slayer’s mind a little.
“Yea, but honestly. ‘nd I’m glad, even when I do shit from time to time, you’re still like… Nice to me? — Nah, won’t stop.“
The nickname was now a kinda personal note, Freed, you live with it. However, the dragon slayer was glad that the rune mage was there for a little talk.
“You wished to hear my opinion. That’s the result.”
There honestly wasn’t any reason for Freed to be dismissive. Sting had admitted it just now; some annoying antics had transpired in the past but it was never something that personally attacked him. Antics, merely. Bixlow gave him so many more to deal with. Ah, and speaking of him… The rune mage really wasn’t fond of nicknames, though attempted to just ignore them. Looks like that’s just what he would have to do here, too. So for the time being he just emitted a barely audible grumble at Sting’s last statement.
Wow, did he really meant that? This guy honestly talked a lot with different words… However, the slayer felt a light blush crawling up on his cheeks, to hear all this honesty and… Yet nice words made him feel more secure about himself. A wide, but honest smile was directed at Freed.
“Keh, thanks. Yer cool, y’know? Still saltman, but cool!”
Every word was meant. Freed’s own expression altered at last; he couldn’t help the tiny smirk his lips curved into after he witnessed Sting’s reaction to his response.
“I merely answered your question.
Hm, thank you but you should really stop with that nickname.”
He really didn’t want anyone to think that he would treat Levy bad. Not after this rumor— who knew what could follow? However.
“You seem to be a straightforward and open-minded person. Honesty is good, and something I’m sure Levy appreciates as well. You are lively and you yourself surely know that you did enervate me on occasion.”
But in fact almost everyone had managed that in the past at least once, so it wasn’t something Freed felt the need to focus on. Sting certainly wasn’t a bad person and he remembered that the blond approached him for advice in the past, something Freed cherished.
“However, I’m certain that you do have some sense of responsibility. Being guild master is not a simple position to master. Levy obviously likes you and she feels comfortable in your presence - I don’t believe you will treat her badly or be tactless on purpose. Your feelings seem sincere.”
Sting decided to slide a bit closer to the rune mage. And even when he normally didn’t care about opinions over him….
“Mh-hm. So, can I ask, what do you think of me then…?”
Eyes narrowed a little as Sting erased some distance between them and he wondered what was following next. Admittedly, the actual query surprised him slightly.
“…now are you asking for an opinion on you in general or an opinion on you in regards to Levy?”
“Keh, alright. ‘m just worried after such rumors ‘nd stuff she’ll avoid me for a while. I do not want anyone to think I#d treat her bad, eh.”
“Rumors come up on a regular basis around here and they sure can be exasperating and cause trouble.
But Levy isn’t someone who would assume something without having talked to you first. It all will pass very quickly. Some rumors only last for a day and fade away forever. Some will be brought up occasionally.
I don’t believe that anyone around caught any bad vibes about how you treat her.”
“No. She merely mentioned that she got teased by some people.
If it reassures you, I hardly think that it changed anything about how she thinks of you. From what I heard you did absolutely nothing to contribute to the situation, after all.So you don’t need to be concerned and pull this face.”
IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY SAY IT LOUD AND CLEAR.
T h e R u l e s
1. Have fun!
2. I’ll try to write in proper English, but I apologize beforehand if there are a few mistakes. My native language is German!
3. If you ever have the feeling that I missed one of your replies, then don’t hesitate to message me! I most likely already have it in my drafts though and motivation is just a b*tch. At times I’m a real slow potato.
4. This blog is a singleship blog and Freed officially is in a relationship with Laxus. If you have any questions, however, never hesitate to approach me! :) ( Also, of course I still DO roleplay with other Laxuses, for them nothing will change! )
5. I’ve an open mind about anything. So don’t be shy and write everything you want to. Yes, that means that I’m also willing to rp NSFW as long as I feel comfortable with the character and the entire situation.
6. I only roleplay with mutuals.
7. If I don’t follow you back it just means that I can’t see any ‘connection’ or no way to interact yet. I also dislike it when the roleplay blog is cluttered with posts that aren’t connected with the actual blog’s theme/character and handled more as a personal blog than a roleplay blog. It may also be that I’m not familiar with the series your character is from at all. I’m open for crossovers, though tend to just accept them when I know at least a little bit of the series!
8. Sometimes I am slow with replies and sometimes I reply within some minutes, so please don’t get mad at me if a reply takes me longer.
9. Reasons for me not following/unfollowing you COULD be if you don’t cut your posts or don’t tag your ships in some cases, for example.
10. As stated before I am open for almost any crossover rps and AUs, just shoot me a message. I prefer having a crossover rp with a series I at least know a little about though.
11. I don’t like rping with an ask as header, so if you want to continue an rp that began with an ask, then please use to comment option to continue and I’ll put it in a new post or you can create a new post and we’ll continue from there.
12. I am very picky with OC’s (I need to know who I rp with so they have to have a proper development and enough information) and usually don’t roleplay with multimuse blogs. So please feel not personally offended if I don’t roleplay with you! For example, I don’t follow dragonslayer OCs.
13. No godmodding. Please.
14. I’m more of a spontaneous roleplayer but what I need to plot out is anything battle related because I don’t want to godmod by accident or get to an outcome one of us does not like. Freed is a powerful mage and his magics can be a lil OP not least because of how many possibilities he has and some of the spells he possesses - so that’s another point that has me worried a little and why I wanna plot out fighting scenes between our muses.
I’d love to rp with you so just ask me and we’ll start a thread! Don’t be shy, I enjoy rping very much and I’d be very glad to rp with anyone of you!
O t h e r n o t e s
I hardly do the ‘exclusive’ thing. Freed has already formed too many bonds he cherishes so choosing just one muse for each chara is something almost impossible by now. But of course there are a few exceptions.
Exclusives are:
- laxusthelightning. romantic exclusivity.of course, like the term ‘Singelship’ states, Freed will only have a romantic bond with his Laxus. What doesn’t mean that I don’t do brotps with other Laxus blogs though!
- rcnouveau. Freed is exclusive with this Chelia blog!
