{ Attention }

Due to personal choices, this blog is becoming an archive only. 

Thank you to everyone who had been so accepting of me and Ruri over all this time, but it’s something I need to do.

[amor-astrum-archive-blog]

           To think she would still be able to remember all            those things after so long... Perhaps it went to            show just how much he truly did mean to her.            Settling herself against him, Ruri closed her eyes,            True, they had both been lucky her father had            listened when they told him of the events, even            thanked Rowen for keeping his youngest child            from further harm. Perhaps that was why he had            never questioned their closeness.

           ❝ At first, I was afraid, unsure of what it was            I saw... But knowing it was you, what more            could I do but put my faith in you? ❞ She            told him simply, eyes softening as his lips found            her once injured arm. ❝ You had been my dear            sweet  pet, the one I had saved... I wasn’t            going to abandon you after you had saved            me. ❞ 

           Smiling to herself, it was then she leaned over            to gently brush their lips together. ❝ I could never            hate the one who saved my life. The bite was            my own fault. You did nothing wrong that day. ❞             Pausing, there was an ever so faint flush of            colour to her cheeks. ❝ I’ll admit, being saved            by you... Probably started off my feelings... ❞

The Day You Saved Me {Past RP}

“That you were.” He chuckles to himself, soon moving to stand up, lifting the girl into his arms. “You protected me… so now it is my turn to protect you, young miss.” First off though, he wanted to tend to her wound. “As long as I am with you, I promise I will always be by your side.” Eyes softening, he lifts her hand to his lips, gently kissing the back of it once more. 

“One day, I will explain to you what happened this day… but for now, let us tend to your wound, alright?” She had the right to know, but right now, he felt she was a bit to young to understand the mechanisms behind it. Even so… he had never met a more brave and tender girl then this one in his arms.

As she finished her recount of things, he leaned back in his seat, lips twitching into a smile. “If I may, mistress, speak on my own feelings…” He waited till he had her permission before doing so. “When we got back to your home, I was afraid I was going to be killed by your father. He was furious that you had been harmed…”

Luckily for him, her father was willing to listen to her. “… Even then, you were brave, and you still are to this day.” His head tilts a bit, pausing a moment. “I never asked you this… because I thought I knew the answer, but I want to know for certain.” He turns his full attention to her, eyes unmoving from her own. 

“That day… when I transformed before you… were you afraid of me? Did you hate me for not being able to protect you?” While the wound had not left a scar, he remembered the wound clearly enough. Slowly lifting her arm, he kisses upon where the wound once was. “I still regret seeing your beautiful skin marred in such a way…”

It pained him often, but he knew there was nothing he could do about it since it was ancient history.

              Despite still being somewhat shaken by the               whole incident, to have him praising her for               what little she actually did, thanking her for               things she considered simple... All she could               do was smile. Leaning her head into his               touch, the girl closed her eyes, enjoying the               gentleness for what time she could.

               ❝ M-Mm... It hurts a bit... ❞ Ruri admitted,                though still kept that bright smile on her                face regardless. ❝ It doesn’t matter though,                because I was at least able to protect you                for a little bit! ❞ So what if she had gotten                hurt in the process? At least she still had him                there at the end of it.

                ❝ More than anything, I just wanted to                 keep you safe, so we can spend lots and                 lots of time together~ ❞

The Day You Saved Me {Past RP}

“Yes. They’re all gone.” While he regretted being covered in blood before her like this, if necessary, he would happily erase her memories so she could sleep more at ease. Hands moving to gently rest on her cheeks, he offers a soft smile to her. “Thank you for trusting in me, young miss, and for doing as I told you too.” Praise was something he wondered if she was used too, but even so, he would give it to her.

“While I couldn’t thank you in my disguised form… I will say it now.” Slowly lifting her hand, he places a kiss to the back of her hand. “Thank you for saving me, and giving me a name, and place at your side.” His gaze shifts to her wound, his smile temporarily fading. “… does it hurt?” Blue eyes shifting to her, he returns one hand to her cheeks to slowly wipe her tears away. “No one will hurt you ever again. I promise.”

So Ruri... has Roen ever scared you in any way? I mean he is a hell hound. He's no doubt shed blood in front of you more times then one. Also, do any of his actions in handling you scare you? Is he to rough? To aggressive?

          A sigh escaped her then.❝ When I was a child, he          did frighten me a little the first time I saw  what he          was, but... I was just a child. Considering the          situation, it was no surprise how I reacted to things. ❞ 

          She gave a small shrug, however.❝ Rough? At          times, yes, but I welcome it honestly. I take him as          he is as he does the same with me. He’s a very          straightforward man who is very honest with me,          thus has a lot of my respect. ❞ She fell silent for a          moment.

         ❝ He does not frighten me in any way, nor is he          too rough or aggressive for my tastes. I love him.          All of him. ❞

[amor-astrum-archive-blog]

Seeing his mistress being kissed by someone else set off the hound in the worst way possible. Needless to say, the person was grabbed with relative ease and tossed aside. Leaning over to desensitize her lips free of the kiss with one of his own. "... Are you alright, mistress?"

          Your muse sees mine being           approached and kissed by           someone they may or may           not know. How do they react?

             His kisses would always be welcomed by her.             Though a small, muffled sound of surprise slipped             free, Ruri wasted no time in practically melting             against her beloved, faint blush dusting her cheeks             once he pulled back.❝ I-I’m fine... Now that             you’ve handled that, at least...~ ❞

[amor-astrum-archive-blog]

           Everything had happened before her young mind            could truly process it all. She knew that Rowen            had licked up some of her blood, but for what reason            she was unsure, but it was the sight of what he            truly was that both frightened and interested the            young vixen. Without any arguments, tear filled            eyes were clamped shut and hands covered her ears,            tiny frame trembling as she curled in on herself,            showing that she was putting all of her trust in the            canine she cared for so dearly.

           Though the sounds faintly met her ears, she tried            desperately to ignore them. To not think of just what            was going on right in front of her... But she was            terrified. 

           Only when she felt a gentle touch to her shoulders            did her eyes open, clouded gaze scanning the male            standing before her. ❝ R...Rowen...? ❞ Ruri asked            timidly, her voice abnormally quiet for such a            usually bright girl. ❝ A-Are the mean dogs gone...? ❞

The Day You Saved Me {Past RP}

Tossed from her arms the moment she jerked her arm away, he fell with a small yelp. Immediately getting up, a whine escaped the hound as he noticed the wound on her arm. The growling of the hounds caught his attention, and they looked like they weren’t anywhere near finished with the child.

Lips drawing up into a snarl, soon enough he approaches her. He uses one paw to guide her arm to his muzzle, licking at the wound enough to make sure there was plenty of blood to take in. Only when the blood was swallowed down did it soon take effect. Body engulfing in flames, it wasn’t long before he took on the form he was infamous form. 

“Close your eyes and cover your ears.” A deep voice rang clear enough for her to hear. He did not want her to see what he was going to do, as it would no doubt give her nightmares. “Do not open or uncover them until I tell you too.” Literally standing over her, the massive canine was a true sight to behold.

Only when she had obeyed him did his massive body leap into action, jaws snapping.

The sounds that were heard were that straight out of a horror film. Blood splattering, screams from the dogs instead of out-right whines. It wasn’t long before the bodies and blood slowly disappeared into dust. Covered in their blood still, he shifts himself down to a more presentable form of the human guise he had always worn even in the presence of his old master.

Approaching her, he kneels down, the dog tag jingling as a clear indication of who he was. Hands moving to rest upon her shoulders, his voice speaks softly to her. 

“You can uncover your eyes and ears now, young miss.”

      ��   Having been in the middle of collecting flowers           to make some small flower crowns and whatnot for           herself and Rowen, Ruri hadn’t been paying much           attention to her surroundings until she heard the           growling coming from at least three hell hounds           nearby. Dropping the flowers back to the ground,           the girl’s eyes went wide, small hands trembling           as she quickly scooped up the small dog before her.

           ❝ Y-You’re not allowed to hurt Rowen! ❞ She            exclaimed, trying to sound at least somewhat tough            despite the tears building in her eyes. Being how            young she still was, her own powers hadn’t had            a chance to kick in yet, so unfortunately the two of            them were stuck in quite the predicament.

           ❝ I-Its okay boy, I won’t let them touch you. ❞            That being said... What more could she do?            Keeping him hugged tightly to her tiny frame,            Ruri clenched her eyes shut as one of the hounds            bit at her arm, though she managed to kick it off            before it could do too much damage to her.            The bite did, however, cause her to start bleeding.

            ❝ M-Mom, Dad... ❞

The Day You Saved Me {Past RP}

The dog was already pondering just how lucky he had gotten to have such a loving young miss to care for him, and for her parents to actually agree and want him to stay. He enjoyed everything so far, from the love, to the chicken, and now he proudly wore the chain with the engraved letter. Barking in response, he nuzzles against her leg in response, panting happily.

His joy was short lived as soon enough a growl escaped the bushes nearby. Unfortunately for this part of Japan, near the underworld’s entrance, hell hounds were frequent. Strays, without masters. Lesser dogs compared to a Cerberus. Nevertheless, they clearly towered over him as they appeared one by one. At least a good three or four.

Lips drawing back in a snarl, the dog soon began yapping loudly in an attempt to scare them off. Stuck in this form, he was unable to do anything to protect her. He knew that well enough, but that wouldn’t stop him from trying.

[amor-astrum-archive-blog]

            Though she had hated sitting through the lessons,             she had Rowen to look forward to afterwards. She             even took the time to speak to her parents about             keeping her canine companion, and surprisingly,             they had given the okay. Though she had no             collar to give him, a small metal dog tag was             hung around his neck, name engraved on it             thanks to her father.

             ❝ Mom and Dad said you could stay, and              Dad engraved your name on that! They              said I should bring you to meet them later. ❞               The young girl smiled as she trotted off into              the forest nearby with him at her heels, a               bright expression on her face. ❝ You can               stay right here with me forever! So,               welcome to your new home! ❞

The Day You Saved Me {Past RP}

A name… She had given him one. Tail wagging even more, a bark escaped him, though as she curled with him in bed, the dog softly whined, opting to sleep and curl up against her to keep her warm. She had taken him in, saved him, and now he had a name… Roen. Roen. He liked it. He liked it very, very much.

During the early day, Roen kept himself hidden, observing the maids and her parents. Her parents seemed decent, though they appeared… strict. Perhaps a tad to strict for his tastes. 

Whatever the case, it wasn’t his place to say or do anything. After her lessons, he revealed himself to her and followed after her willingly where ever she went outside. Her home was definitely beautiful. Big, wide open fields, with a forest over yonder… he could grow to love it here with ease. 

“Arf!”

[amor-astrum-archive-blog]

          To the girl, it didn’t matter in the slightest how           strong he was. The little guy was cute and           sweet, affectionate and gentle... Just the kind           of dog she had always wanted. Snuggling him           close, she pressed a kiss to the top of his head,           bright smile glued to her lips all the while.

          ❝ Then I’m gonna keep you! That way neither           of us have to ever be lonely again~ ❞ She           purred happily. That being said, she soon placed           him down beside her, settling under the blankets           with him. ❝ Let’s see... I think I’ll call you...           Rowen. That okay? ❞ Before he could answer,           a yawn escaped her, one arm drawing the           dog closer. ❝ Let’s go out and play lots           tomorrow, Rowen...~ ❞

The Day You Saved Me {Past RP}

Stay? That was… A soft whine comes from the dog in response, though in all honesty, he had no place to go. There was no one that actively wanted him… but she did. She wanted him. While he couldn’t exactly access any of his powers… maybe he could simply be a companion to her until he was healed enough.

After all, she would no doubt get sick of him eventually. He wasn’t the strongest of hounds, or the most reliable. 

[amor-astrum-archive-blog]

             Seeing the little puff ball acting so sweet and              affectionate made her wonder just what had              gone on to leave him in such a state. Scooping              up the canine once he had finished eating,              the vixen shifted to sit more comfortably on her              bed, letting him lay atop her chest while she              continued to shower him with as much love              as possible. ❝ You’re so cute... What I wouldn’t              give to be able to keep you here with me... ❞ 

             One hand moving to stroke his cheek, her              gaze softened, expression becoming one that              spoke of nothing but genuine affections for              him. ❝ Do you wanna stay here? ❞

The Day You Saved Me {Past RP}

Relaxing visibly, the dog allowed her to pet him and do as she pleased. At the offer of chicken, he happily ate it, though oddly enough, his paws moved in such a way that it was almost like he was a little human trapped in a dog’s body. Sure it was odd enough moving, but he held each piece between his paws gingerly. Once he was done, he sat up, his tail wagging excitedly behind him.

“Arf!” 

Now that he had been fed, and shown so much love… he wanted more. More love, that was. She was gentle, and didn’t hit him or push him away either. While he had the chance, he would soak up as much affection as possible.

[amor-astrum-archive-blog]

           She was glad that he made the entire thing so            easy to deal with. Making sure he was dry before            setting the little pom on her bed, Ruri quickly            rushed off downstairs to bring back some of the            chicken she had grilled the night before that            still sat in the fridge, bringing the food back up            to her room for him and set the plate down on            the bed.

           ❝ Here you go, little guy. I bet you’re starving. ❞             Ruri mused as she reached a small hand out to            stroke the top of his head, scratching gently            behind one of his ears in the process. ❝ Help            yourself, okay? ❞ He really was a cute little dog,            at least that was what she thought.

The Day You Saved Me {Past RP}

He blinks as he’s set down and she begins washing him so diligently. Unlike most animals, he doesn’t mind being covered in water. At this point, he’s used to it now. Simply only able to stare at her as the bandages are wrapped around him, intelligent blue eyes refuse to leave her small form. Maybe it’s weird that he’s watching her like this, but…

For a hound like Roen, to be cared for is a foreign subject. He’s not used to such attention. The promise of chicken though makes his ears perk up curiously. When was the last time he had had chicken? Tail beginning to wag, a bark emits itself from him in response. 

[amor-astrum-archive-blog]

          Rushing along home with the small dog in her arms,           the young kit peered around the entryway as they           snuck inside. She was unsure about how her parents           would react to her bringing home a dog out of nowhere,           but she wanted to help the poor animal more than           anything.

          Taking him straight to her room, she fetched what she           could to clean his injuries and bandage them for him,           cleaning off as much of his fur as possible in the           process. ❝ I know the bandages will be kinda weird,           but be good and wear them okay? I’ll bring you some           yummy chicken from the kitchen if you’re a good           boy. ❞

The Day You Saved Me {Past RP}

The injured canine found himself in her arms, blinking once in surprise. Being beaten down by stray dogs and people cruel to animals was no strange thing to the Pomeranian, but still… 

Unable to respond, he can only nuzzle against her, offering an arf in response in hope that it was enough to thank her for picking him up like this.

He really wasn’t sure how to handle children, but she didn’t seem so bad. Maybe he’d give this one a chance at least.

[amor-astrum-archive-blog]

            What could she say? The years they had spent side             by side were precious to her. The day they met, all             the things they had been through together... She             would remember all of it. Settled beside him within             moments, her head came to rest against his shoulder,             nuzzling against him affectionately. ❝ Mm... A lot             of things, actually, but... ❞ 

             As a child, she had always been reckless and probably              a bit too eager to get herself into whatever was going              on, but one day when her family weren’t properly keeping              an eye on her, she had run off to explore. Night would              set in soon, but just as she was set to return to the manor              faint whimpering met her ears.

             Following the sound, she came across a small dog              among the grass and other plants, clearly weak and hurt              to say the least. Without hesitation, she scooped up              the tiny animal and brought him close, a worried expression              on her face. ❝ Poor little doggy... Let’s get you back              home and I’ll fix ya right up! ❞

The Day You Saved Me {Past RP}

He smiles to himself, letting her do as she pleases. “I look forward to such a thing… I always will.”

“Reliving the past?” He asks, two fingers touched to her temple as he took a peek on what she was thinking about. Stepping back, he moves to take a seat beside her, brow raising. “Well… I can’t say I don’t sympathize. It has been a very long time, and today is New Year’s…” Nearly three hundred and fifty new years spent in her presence… he had never lost count either.

“… what other memories do you hold dear to you?…”

[amor-astrum-archive-blog]

            Leaning into his touch, her lips soon found             his hand, smile only growing at the signs of             affection. The danger he showcased mattered             not to her. After all, she knew of the vicious             side of him very well and regardless of that, she             still loved him more than anything in the world.             Both hands lifting to his cheeks, she took a             few moments to simply admire him, though             soon brought him in for one more kiss.

            ❝ I feel lucky to have you at my side, Rowen.             You’re the only one that’s ever been there             for me no matter what. ❞ Stroking his cheeks,             she purred softly, touching their foreheads             together. ❝ Thank you for everything... For             always protecting me, worrying and looking             out for me... ❞ 

            Cuddling closer, she relaxed at last, nuzzling             her head under his jaw. ❝ I intend to spend             the rest of eternity showing my gratitude...~ ❞

The Day You Saved Me {Past RP}

Pausing at that, he soon moves to return the embrace, soon enough moving to place a kiss to her cheek in the utmost gentle of manners. “I will hold you to your word then, my mistress.” Pulling back, he moves to lay a gentle hand to her injured cheek. His smile fades into a faint, if not chilling look. “No one will harm you ever again. I swear this to you.”

The glint in his eyes was dangerous, filled with renewed fire. “If anyone dares to lay a hand on you… I will tear them limb from limb and offer you their heads on a plate of gold.” No one would ever lay a hand to her in his presence again… or without it. While Roen appeared innocent and cute, he was most definitely not even that.

Strengthened by his resolve, and his confidence in the hell fire he wielded, as well as his own fangs… Well, it was obvious Roen would not be facing death for a very long time.
