Jasaiah stopped immediately when David started to struggle. He stilled, trying to get him to understand that there was no threat, that this wasn't a test. In truth shifting back would be optimal so he could try to help make the child understand. The tails released him immediately. Had he moved too quickly? He didn't get very far at all before Drake's lithe and insanely strong body wrapped around his. The hold was vice like, and he cursed his own faulty. Jasaiah could feel the glass press to his throat and went very still indeed. The only sounds were of Jas's breathing. The other didn't need to breathe, and it didn't seem like he had been, either.<br/><br/>Drake as a whole hadn't been very exposed to Jasaiah in his feral form. Taking the risk, knowing that a slash to his throat wouldn't kill him just severely injure him, Jasaiah's bones reshaped and reformed under Drake's, still half-trapped under the bed with their heads exposed. His hands pressed flat to the floor, breathing oddly calm despite the circumstances. The shift and adjustment caused his neck to be nicked, and he was actually pretty damn grateful that Drake had fed before his mind had slipped away. He could detect the lack of emotion, and it was truly unnerving.<br/><br/>A killing machine. Yeah that summed Drake up nicely. He just never imagined being in the position where he'd be at the other end of Drake's machine like grasp and killing intent. "It is just I, Drake. Jasaiah." His voice was calm, reasonable. The broken look on that child's face had shattered his own heart, and he wasn't sure if he could mend that. But all he could do was try in the future. If he'd had more footing he could have turned the tables, though it would not have been easy. For all Jas was quick, Drake was impossibly strong physically, and the difference between their play fighting and now was Drake meant every single action.<br/><br/>"I am not here to harm you." He was glad there were no actual weapons in the hotel, and none on his person. He was naked as well, so nothing hid that fact. Sure he could have used the tails to pry Drake off, but the risk of having them sliced off was too great, and<i>that </i>was his one true weakness.
