He didn't mean to be cruel, he wasn't a cruel person, but he couldn't look like he pitied a human. No that would be weak, worse than that, it would be traitorous. Janin was a naga in his heart, and he couldn't afford to feel anything toward a human, lest someone think he really did belong with that kind instead of with the serpents. It was probably best he didn't speak to the boy at all, but he couldn't help be moved my his story. "The one who birthed you abandoned you for that? Is this common with humans?" he looked disgusted, "no wonder we see their kind as lower beings." Then again, he already knew that. His own mother had left him to die in the wilderness, when he was just an innocent baby who had done nothing to possibly offend her. Jace's fate was just as cruel, no family should turn on it's own like that. The story further cemented Jace's dislike of humans, even if he felt sorry for the one before him.</div></blockquote><br/><br/>Sefii nodded his understanding, "That's more of a big deal among humans isnt it?" He looked at Janin and smiled softly, "You're lucky that you have been raised in a much more accepting community... Still... you're right Janin... I know I can't keep him, and it seems like he really has nowhere to go..." <br/><br/>Inwardly, the sensitive naga was worried about what horrible end the human would come to if he stayed here, wandering on this side of the river. At least he could be gentle... he could even make it enjoyable; he had done so before.<br/><br/>"Well Jace... you seem like you have given it a lot of thought, and I really am very hungry..." He slithered forwards and reached out with his tail, curling the pretty blue scaled coils around the human's chest and pulling him close. The naga flicked his tongue out gently, getting a taste for his soon to be meal and he sighed; partly with enjoyment, and part in sadness for what he was about to do. "It won't hurt so you don't need to be afraid," he assured the teen, nuzzling his cheek affectionately as he said it. Janin would probably think him ridiculous, and he would rather the boy didn't watch in truth, but Sefii liked to cuddle his prey. He wanted to make sure the human would be ok, and that he wasn't frightened. Just because he was a predator, it didn't mean he had to be cruel... did it?</div></blockquote><br/><br/>Jace smiled a bit. "I'm not afraid." he said. He figured the way he was going was a brutal lashing by a terrible naga, but this one was sweet, as his tongue gently moved over his cheek and he nuzzled him. Jace had to admit, it felt nice, being in the hold of the naga's blue tail which was wrapped around his chest. He hadn't even been touched by another guy yet. It felt great. He moved his hand, to the extent he could, with the tail around his shoulders, and ran the back of his fingers along Sefii's cheek, while he used his other hand to stroke the naga's tail. It felt a little odd, the feel of the snake skin on his hand, but he pushed that out of his mind as he closed his eyes lightly wondering what would happen next.
