Aries's Links
It's nice to see someone else who loves the waves as much as he does. They don't really talk much, but it's nice to have some comradery on the beach.
While he doesn't know this guy outside of the beach, he loves the chance encounters with him. Having a surfing buddy is always preferable to being out there alone. Even if they aren't talking. Someday he really will have to chat with him over more than the water.
While X tends to have outbursts, Aries finds him endearing. Whenever his temper gets the best of him, all he has to do is kiss him or hold him to send him into a tizzy, & he can't help but find that ridiculously cute. Maybe it's wrong of him to treat him in such a way, but for now, he's happy just to be with him.
Even though he may have one too many outbursts, Aries still sticks around and X absolutely loves that. He loves how aries kisses or holds him to calm him down when his temper gets the best of him, and he pretty much instantly calms down when he does. He feels quite comfortable in his arms afterall!
He may be a handful, but hes extremely happy that aries loves him enough to stick around~
Aries always thought of Gregor as frivolous. Well, & abusive. From a young age, he seemed to be fairly passive aggressive, which always bothered Aries. Most of the other family members were fine, but Aries made a point to stay away from Gregor.
Aries was one of the older cousins in the group, but Gregor always felt he wasn't particularly adult like. His head was always in the clouds & no one is that nice. Or maybe he's just good at masking his dark side; Gregor could never be sure. All in all, he doesn't really trust his older cousin after living with him. In recent years, Gregor has even thought that perhaps their lifestyles may not be that different, which makes him trust Aries even less.
He has a few repeat customers, but rarely any so adventurous. He really enjoys that she throws caution to the wind when she's somewhere new. It may help that her guide is so large, even if the two of them know he's gentle. Anyways, he loves her sense of adventure & desire to learn about the cultures rather than just the sites & history. Rarely does Aries get to really allow his guests to immerse themselves as he has over the years. She's still saving for that trip to Earth, but she's so great, he's been contemplating a discount or package deal to propose to his boss for her. She IS one of their most loyal customers in the last decade.
She loves that he can always hook her up with an amazing get away when she has vacation time. He's super kind & knowledgeable. She & her friends often won't go on a trip without him as the guide when it's far off rather than a day trip.
He's a good manager, & great at getting me on some great trips. I really appreciate his diligence & he's not a bad guy out of work either. Lately we've been hitting the waves & enjoying the weather. It's been a nice change of pace to go with someone while still meeting up with the other locals on the beach.
It tickles him how upset she is that she can't sneak up on him or seem to scare him. He's even more fascinated that she'd want to since most people shy away due to his size. She's friendly, gets her job done, & is a very fun colleague.
He's fairly boring in all honesty as far as pranks go. Now, as far as personality goes, he's intriguing. She's not had much of a chance to study up close those with such a long life span. While she knows he's not "old" compared to some of their species, she's not had an excuse for up close contact either. She keeps waiting to see if a facade drops. If any of that "predator" can still leak through. She blames this on being corrupt by nature.
He remembers having pets as a kid, but they were never close to him. Having Dover has really put it into perspective for him. Some days he wonders if this is what it's like to have a child outside of his sister. He loves this little guy.
Dover was a rescue, so being held always makes him happy. Aries has been the warmest creature that Dover has ever had the pleasure to live with.
Kelvin was always a good kid with a good heart. It was a shame that they didn't really know each ohter until both had left home. Aries thinks about when Gregor used to bully Kelvin into doing things he didnt' want to do, & still feels guilty thinking that these kids were doomed, but Kelvin turned out alright. Hell, he even feels close to him in some aspects.
He & Aries go way back. He used to live next door to this whacky family when he was a kid. Aries is a good kick older than he is, but once the two of them had gone their separate ways, Kelvin eventually needed a good travel agent & tour guide to go through all that soul searching. He travels less now, but he & Aries are still good buds & even confide over a beer once in a while.
He's pretty pleased that even though he's outgrown the lifestyle that their parents had hoped to pass on, Alessandro & he could still come back to being family. Being able to get right back into his role that he had long ago is not only nostalgic, but really pleasant. He wishes things had gone differently for poor Alessandro, though if anything, it gives him an excuse to be close once again.
Even though they aren't children anymore, Alessandro still feels close to his older cousin. The big brother he needed on days he didn't want to be the big brother, Alessandro has always been grateful to have such an easy going relative. Now that he's separated from his wife, he's reaching out t rekindle their childhood friendship.
He finds it funny how similar to her brother she can be. The way she explodes is comical since they both have such outbursts. He cracks up especially when she tries to physically push him away from Eros. She's like a chihuahua pushing against an elephant. Patting her head only makes it more hilarious, not that he'd openly laugh at her.
Aries is surprised that Grey has stayed home thus far. Aries left late though, so perhaps Grey will too. He can sense the torn feelings that his young cousin has. It's almost like he can see the desire to leave & be himself, & the sense of belonging he feels at the homestead with the rest of the family. It makes Aries smile to know that he won't be the only one that battles the duality. And perhaps, this kid will make a better decision than he did. Somehow bridge the two lifestyles. Who knows?
Someone has to stay at home help out the lot of people with lot of kids since Greyson is the one who always either babysits or jumps when asked for help. He not want to disappoint his family since for him the family comes 1st. Grey also know how his parents were sad when Gregor left so young. He never knew why everyone stay away from Gregor especially Aries. He felt since he was an eyeling the tension between the two. Grey always ended up in his brothers side so I guess that's why his and Aries's relationship is not that close but more of neutral.
