His tears slowly fade and eventually Inui is able to get to his feet again. He hiccups gently and almost as if it's the most natural thing in the world he climbs on to the bed and sits down. He sits sideways, his body propped up by one hand with his knees together and tucked off to the other side of his body. Facing Seishu his breath hitches a few times before he's able to speak. “S-so, I really do look like I belong in the Nightmare realm?” he whispers hesitantly. It was one of the bullies' favorite teases but as Seishu nods in reply, confirming it, he no longer feels bad about it.

“In my realm you would be considered one of the most fair, or the highest breeding.” Rue giggles at Seishu's word usage while Inui just blushes deeply. “Black has always been the color of our realm. Or, the lack of color to be precise. And your hair, the perfect shade.” Rue looks over at Inui as his blush deepens, absolutely no signs of fear coming from the older minion making the fairy smile. Normally Rue would feel a little jealous at the attention Seishu is showing Inui, especially with all the praise he's receiving, but Rue can feel how badly Inui needs it so he goes back to fixing the covers in silence. Inui meanwhile reaches up to touch Seishu's fingers, buried deep in his raven locks as he talks about the perfect color.

Seishu's hand slides down to brush just next to one of Inui's eyes, making it close slightly. “And you eyes? That color has long been associated in the human realm as evil and terrifying, so such a color would be coveted. True, minions can use illusions to be whatever they need to be, but it's always the most comfortable to do your job in your own skin, if you know what I mean.” Inui, having spent so many years hiding his looks, can not help but agree that being himself now without having to hid at all is definitely much more comfortable. However the reference to evil makes him drop his gaze for a second. 

“So, nightmare minions are evil?” He asks softly.

It's Rue that answers. “Nope, not at all!” Inui turns to look at Rue, surprised that the other dream minion seems to know about such things. “Nightmare minions aren't evil, just like dreams aren't exactly good. I mean, we are all full of positive, but that doesn’t make us good. . .That doesn't make sense, but, anyways. Nightmare Minions just wanna [b]look[/b] evil because it makes creating the negative emotions they feed on all the more easy to get. The faster they can scare those negative emotions out, the faster the human can recover from their fear. Right Mister Seishu?” Inui looks back to the guardian who nods the affirmative.

“They scare the fear out. . .So, they are helping humans?” He asks softly, the idea feeling very alien to him after all the years of learning how terrible the Nightmare Realm and those that dwell in it are.

“Indeed.” Seishu says softly, looking towards the door. [i]'Enasi is coming, and I just got a wicked idea'[/i] Rue sees the evil look growing on his face and lands next to the guardian with a curious look on his face. Seishu turns to the two of them, now both looking at him with questions int heir eyes. “Listen, Enasi is coming, and I just had the most wickedly fun idea.” He looks to Inui with a reassuring smile. “Don't worry, it won't hurt anybody, but it'll work best if I have both of yours' cooperation, okay?” Rue nods happily, glad Seishu is back to his old tricks, while Inui agrees a little more hesitantly. He may be completely comfortable with Seishu now, but he doesn't want to get in trouble with his lord. It takes a minute to get set up by by the time Enasi is in the hallway he's ready.

He smiles at the plant siblings as they walk right up to the foot of his bed, their energy not really in check. However for his trick to work he doesn't let it show. His gaze wanders over to his counterpart and he can not help but feel a little better knowing that Enasi is feeling good enough to look him in the eyes. After a few seconds he notices the plant siblings looking at the bed funny and he lets out a long sigh. “Awww, and I thought I'd have more time. . .” On the cue Both Rue and Inui slide up from beneath the covers, one on either side of Seishu. The both slide up right next to him, turned to face him with one arm laying across his chest. They both are the perfect little actors and let out pouty groans and bury their faces against Seishu's shoulders. Seishu slides an arm around each of their waists and gives the room a naughty smile.
