"Well for one I could make it snow, and not just here, I could make a blizzard for the entire village in seconds"

"Please don't do that Sheer. I could die if that happens. I may be dead but that will kill me." Jani said.

"A blizzard wont kill, people not knowing to stay inside are those who die, besides, it's not like I'd let it get out of hand"

"Yes I understand but I have shopping to do almost everyday Sheer." Jani said with a sigh.

"Well I could make it let up in coordination with your outings, I very much doubt anyone would really trace it to you"

"I'm sure Sheer. I must go out later to pick myself up some more blood. I'm running rather low at the moment." Jani said with a sigh.

Sheer sighed, "Very well, just be back soon"

"Not now Sheer. This is much more important to me right now." Jani said with a sigh.

Sheer nodded, "Then... shall we begin?"

Jani nodded as he placed two candles onto the table, handing a match to Sheer. "Just light it and say a small prayer to them. That's what I do."

Sheer sighed and put the tips of his hands on the table, his candle was slowly encased in ice and a soft glow seemed to appear from the top, bright as a flame but derived strangely from the ice

"O-Or you could do that Sheer. Whatever helps you I guess." Jani said in a nervous tone.

Kale sighed, "We make these ice torches to light our homes, while we do have fire, there are few materials to utilize to cook so we found different ways to maintain light"

"Wow that is so freaking cool Sheer!" Jani said in an amazed tone.

Sheer sighed, "The ice will never melt and the glow never fades... if... you don't mind... I'd like to pray for Ice once a day... to make up for lost time..."

"Your more then welcome to Sheer." Jani said as he lit his candle for his lover.

Sheer nodded and looked down at the ground in front of the glowing ice, sighing deeply as he let the thoughts of Ice come back rather then always repressing them

Jani mouthed words for his old lover, wishing that he was still there with him as he sighed sadly.

Sheer sighed sadly, feeling ice cold tears begin to well in his eyes, only to drop to the floor with a slight Tic sound

"You ok Sheer?" Jani asked in a worried tone as he looked over to him.

Sheer just continued to kneel there, crying to himself over his lover

Jani saw this and wanted to help him but he wasn't sure how he'd do that exactly. He just stood there in silence as he watched Sheer cry.

Sheer seemed much smaller then normal as he cried, looking almost insignificant with how small of a frame he really had, only noticeable just then

"Sheer you ok? I know you miss your boyfriend, hell even I miss mine. But please don't cry." Jani said as he knelt next to Sheer.

Sheer sobbed softly "Why... why would he take Ice from me... he didn't deserve to die..."

"Sheer some people are just plain dicks. Take my lovers father for example. Look where he banished me. He didn't like me to begin with." Jani said with a sigh.

"But... he only banished you... Ice died right... in front of me... I had to watch him die in agony..." Sheer said, still crying

"I killed my lover Sheer. I watched him die in my arms as I accidentally drank his blood dry." Jani said in a sad tone.

"And look at you now... you get to mourn him... your rich... I'm a slave... I'm treated like nothing... you may let me mourn Ice... but there's no stopping you being my master... I'm property... I'm just some worthless fucktoy meant to be abandoned as soon as my... looks deteriorate or grow attached" Sheer said, sounding harsh but truthful

Jani sighed. "Your right Sheer. I mourn him every year. I am rich. I'm your master and your my property. You are not a fucktoy Sheer. And I do not treat you like your nothing. So stop talking like that before I make you Sheer!"

Sheer gritted his teeth, "Yes master..." He said and the ice covered candle shattered as he stood up and turned, walking out of the room as he forced himself to stop crying

Jani sighed as he slowly followed after Sheer. "Damn it Sheer will you stop for a second and listen to me for christ sakes!"

"No... I wont... leave me alone... and I take back what I said earlier... I really don't care about mourning Ice... I wont be doing it again" Sheer said, not turning to face Jani to hide the look of sadness in his eyes

"Sheer stop talking like that! If you want to morn your lover go ahead and do so. I don't mind if you do." Jani said with a sigh.

"No... I don't..." Sheer said walking into his room and closing the door, however this time he didn't freeze it, simply walking over and laying face first on the bed, burying himself in the pillow

"Sheer what the fuck is your problem?" Jani asked from outside Sheer's door.

"Try wanting to kill myself" Sheer said simply

"You want to die Sheer? Then come out here so I can aid you with that!" Jani shouted, obviously not happy with how Sheer was acting.

Sheer sighed "Well if you want to kill me then maybe we can just die together, end our nuisance to the world"

"Sheer come out here right now! I will not allow you to talk like this!" Jani shouted at Sheer through the door.
