Ahh... he was waiting for that, there were always more loopholes than one would desire, although in this case it was just lack of foresight. And to think.... He was thinking of releasing Natalya after a day or so anyways.... "Would you rather start now?" He asked silkily, moving forward and licking the gryverns nose. Mmm... Blood. "And yes, that would be lovely." at the bottom of the mountain there was still that river, and it would be a good place to wash all this blood off of themselves...
When Geil licked mozer it felt... Alot better than mozer would have expected, it was smooth and slightly rough but also... Pleasing. This wasn't actually from Geil doing anything right now, but the effect of all those things he had put into the gryverns mind beginning to settle and finding the appropriate places to cling to.

Pleasing or not, the gesture tickled the already offended appendage and Mozer swiftly turned his head to sneeze again. Accompanied by more pain. He held himself still for a moment, eyes closed to quickly get a grip on the pain then crouched down in wot was becoming a very familiar gesture.
It was just as well that Mozer didn't know Geil's previous plans for Natalya, though he would probably base later assumptions on how Geil treated and kept him. Not that he was consciously thinking about that. He was still fighting a sense of dread mixed with the unexpected 'this isn't so bad' thoughts that he knew he wouldn't actually agree with anyway. Or, at least, he was pretty sure he wouldn't agree with anyway.
After he had gotten older, he had learned to respect Casimir's boundaries more by as swies and noctyier he had constantly been in the older gryvern's space. So it wasn't that he simply shied away from the touch of other beings, even that of other males, it was the idea behind where all of this was going.

Geil gave him a sympathetic look after the sneeze, and pet the gryverns forehead gently before moving farther down and once again mounting the brindle shaded gryvern, refraining from making any bad jokes this time around although he did make a small whimper as he settled down and began to hang on again... Owwy, that was such an uncomfortable place to get bitten. He had gotten all the bad cowboy jokes out of his system the first time he was given a ride, Luckily, although now he had thought of so many more he could use... Next time... Next time...
"Are you going to be ok flying down there?" he asked with a slight hint of worry in his voice, he'd trust mozer to know his own limits and not to lye and simply fall off the cliff with the both of them to get out of the deal they had made.

Mozer slowly turned his head slightly to look at Geil out of his peripheral vision, suspicion causing him to wonder about that worry in the tsume's voice, and, indeed, it seemed as though he knew wot the Sin was thinking. "I've flown far more injured than this and I'm too honourable to kill either one of us now. I will hold to my end of the bargain, Geil." With that, Mozer walked to the edge of the dropoff and took a slight breath to brace himself. His only comfort was that the sinuous movements of his body tended to follow his head, which wouldn't be jerking around.
He did suffer a momentary pang of concern for Geil; this would be more uncomfortable with his wound, though Mozer didn't regret the fact that he had bitten Geil in the least. At least he'd gotten in A blow before he was taken down. He winced again at the memory of the pain that had brought him low. Next time he'd try a different approach-- Next time!? There would be NO next time. He snorted softly at himself and soon they were touching carefully down at the river. Mozer's control wasn't quite as good as before, so the landing was a bit rougher for Geil.
Mozer winced as he lay down so Geil could get off him, "Sorry about that."

Geil smiled and nuzzled the back of his head "I know, I just wanted to make sure you were fit to fly down." He said with a pleased tone, then clung tightly as mozer once again began his flight off the edge of the cliff, almost expecting him to just walk off and plummet at first before the others claws gripped the very air itself.
The ride wasn't as rough as before but geil's uh... Wound meant that it was more unpleasant, and Geil murmured alittle bit as they flew down and finally returned to the ground... Slowly unwinding himself from the gryvern with purposefully prolonged contact... Atleast mozer felt very nice <3 Then the tsume removed himself from Geils place and meandered over to the river, beginning to wash off the cut with the cold water... The initial shock of the cold prompted some amusing facial expressions from the tsume, which Mozer might have found amusing... Then he motioned for Mozer to come closer. "We should probably get that blood off your face." He suggested, although didn't command mozer to approach.

"Probably," the gryvern agreed, still struggling within himself on how to respond. He felt stiff and unlike himself; things he would normally find amusing didn't seem as funny as usual. He wasn't acting like himself and it bothered him that he would change so much, especially with something he agreed to.
With a sudden determination, he rose, though the movement did rather cause his head to swim briefly, then he moved to the river with the same strong stride. He hesitated briefly at the bank, then simply lay down. He was still hot from the exertions, though not nearly as tired as he could have been, and he didn't want to chance taking a chill by suddenly dousing himself in cold water.
With care he scooped a paw into the chilly water then leaned his head down to carefully beginning washing.

It didn't take Geil very long to become satisfied the wound was taken care of as well as it would be... Atleast for now, and then walked over to Mozer and knelt down, taking the tip of his own tail and dipping it in the water... Then he used the brush like tuft of fur to quickly finish up cleaning off the others Muzzle.
"It's a bit cold to sleep out in the open here... But we can wait till you're feeling better to look for shelter." He wondered why the gryvern was getting so stiff, and such... Most people would have begun drooling over the sight of Geil after such a strong fight that they had earlier, of course Geil wasn't following it up with the customary non-psychic seduction... Hmm..

Mozer struggled to not sneeze again as the tail slipped across his muzzle. "I'm fine," the gryvern said quietly, though a hint of weariness sounded in his voice now. He pushed upwards, standing stiff-legged for a moment and the rush of pain in his head. But it subsided to the normal amount of pain after just a few moments.
"I assume you have another shelter nearby," Mozer said, facing towards the woods rather than the tsume now behind him. He was also still fighting the fact that he didn't know how long he was going to be under Geil's control. Blast not setting that limit. Blast. He sighed heavily without realizing it.

Geil shrugged a little bit. "It's a ways away... Like I said, I haven't been to these mountains before..." He grinned at mozer and put a arm over the others shoulder before beginning to walk/guide them both in the right direction... Despite having just washed off in a rather cold stream Geil was just as warm as before... And actually felt even warmer due to the steadily dropping temperature. He felt sort of sorry for Mozer, because according to their deal he could keep him... Indefinitely. Fortunately for the gryvern, Geil only planned on keeping him for a week... Or two. heh <3
"You should relax, it's not healthy to be so tense." Geil said teasingly as they walked towards one of his numerous hideouts scattered across the orchard. This was going to be fun, he concluded, since it was not very often that he found someone that was honourable enough to let him do... Dishonorable things to them just because of some deal... Not that Geil would have acted any differently were the situation reversed... Err... well, were it reversed in a way that he would not normally like.

Mozer didn't say anything, struggling to not pull away from Geil just as much as he struggled to not lean in closer. The feel of the warm body along his shoulder made him even more glad he hadn't actually gone into the stream. As long as they kept moving, he should be fine. Though he would also need to eat soon.
"I'm sure that won't be a problem after awhile," the gryvern replied, eyes instinctively scanning the woods around him, despite his discomfort in the situation. His head still ached, but it was pushed behind years of training to ignore everything but his surroundings. His nose flared and he seemed less aware of the tsume at his side. Though Geil was still a distracting ball of warmth.

Unfortunately Geil, after a moment, leaned into mozer and rubbed his head against the others neck in a gentle nuzzle. Closing his eyes for a moment and sighing contentedly, "No, I'm sure it won't." He re-iterated and then reopened his eyes and sniffed at the air... Ahh it felt so crisp and fresh out here, even if it was a bit chilly.
It was probably around three or four miles until they reached the cave, and this one was just as decorated if not more than the one that he had left Natalya at. Although this one did have a heater, and a full body mirror and several more primarily cosmetic amenities, and a few more uh... Other ones that are best not to mention.

Mozer continued to watach around them when Geil opened the cave from its camouflage. Mozer fought the deep sense of dread again and so hesitated for a moment before he followed the tsume through. He stopped just within the door, intense eyes quickly skimming around to take in the strange implements and wotnot that decorated the room. His body tensed up again and he nearly backed right back out, but he was a gryvern of his word, even if he had to remind himself of that constantly just now.
His eyes panned the room again, stopping this time on Geil and he knew his heart was racing. He was fairly certain it was just because of fear. Fairly. . . certain. Light, wot had he gotten himself into?

All of the various things that were easily visible in his cave were of a rather benign disposition, Hair brushes... perfume (none of which seemed to have been used in a long time), mirrors... And afew lights that Geil had just switched on which lit up the cave rather nicely... Although the main feature was a very large circular bed in the middle/back of the cave... Everything here was amazingly clean, despite the fact that it hadn't been occupied in awhile... And there was actually very little evidence of this place being lived in period except of course, for all the furnishing.
Mozer, if he did not already feel this way, would begin to think it would be a very good idea to go lay down... The bed was very tempting and looked exceptionally soft, especially when compared to what Gryvern or tsumes were ordinarily used to sleeping on.
Geil looked back over at Mozer and tilted his head in a cute and somewhat innocent manner... This had the possibility of being a very long night. "I forgot to ask if you were hungry... Are you?" he inquired with his lips forming a big smile directed at the gryvern.

Mozer, despite knowing wot beds and wotnot were, had never seen a circular one before, especially not one that large. This wasn't at all wot he exected in a cave and the fact that there was. . . luxury here made him even more wary. As such he answered the question automatically, "Yes, I am."
His eyes drifted back to the strange bed, glad to be focusing on something other than the tsume who shouldn't be scaring him so badly. Well, shouldn't was a relative word; there was a very good reason for him to afraid. Sera had never allowed him tot ry her bed on the grounds that he would probably break it, so he had to admit some curiousity to wot the--
Why was he thinking about beds? His ears went back uneasily and he carefully didn't look at Geil either, instead directing his eyes to the floor uneasily. This was just so stinkin' awkward.

Geil smiled and nodded, beginning to head back towards the entrance before pausing as Mozers eyes diverted themselves to the floor... Then he sighed and rolled his eyes at the random spurts of awkwardness that this gryvern seemed so prone to... And instead of trying to coax him into going and lying down, walked over and put a hand on either side of the gryverns head, directed him over towards the bed and then shoved him onto it before heading back towards the door.
"Go to sleep or something, just stay here while I go attempt to hunt. I'll be back in a few hours probably." He said in a rather commanding tone, waiting just for a moment to see if Mozer had a response before he left.
