Incandescent

Hey everyone, this is my last entry for Madameazzure's Noblesse December Event over on tumblr. Hope this is OK since I tried my best on it, sorry if it seems a tad rushed in places, but I honestly didn't want filler and I couldn't think of anything to put at that spot, so sorry. ':(

Warning! This is literally all fluff, so beware of those feels of cuteness I guess...that's pretty much it. Oh and Trioship. That is in there.

Also I have no idea when this would take place. I assume it is around the time, before or after I don't know, when Frankenstein called them his kids when they are all hurt.

Anyways enjoy! :)

It was cold outside. It was winter, and M-21, Takeo, and Tao all came in from shoveling the driveway and sidewalk. Appearances must still be made after all. They all walked in the house, taking off the snow gear where it needed to be. It all helped avoid messes after all, aka keeping Frankenstein from killing them.

" Ah, it's cold outside!" Tao complained as he hugged Takeo. Takeo just stumbled slightly at the sudden weight, but let it be. He couldn't get him off anyways, not when he would just hug him again right afterwards, and he really didn't care. He was used to it.

" Well, it is winter Tao." M-21 snarked back.

" Well there is a fireplace down the hallway." Takeo suggested. Tao sprung up and nodded. Takeo also wanted to get warm and dry his hair.

" Come on let's go! We haven't been in there before! At least not for relaxing." Tao tugged at their arms as M-21 and Takeo just nodded and followed.

Inside was one wall with only a fireplace. Near the door was a couch and a TV on an accompanying wall. Behind the couch on the far end of the room was a small kitchen area. The heat in the room was so nice compared to the cold outside. They may be very advanced modified humans, but even they can only stand the cold so much.

Tao went to the couch and slumped down in true relaxation. Sinking into the couch, he waved his arm around as he felt for a TV remote. Finding the remote, he turned the TV on to watch something. Just remembering the blankets near him, he reached for a blanket before he wrapped up in it. Tao was usually the one to get cold first and the worse.

Takeo walked in, his hair swaying behind him. Takeo slid his hand up, taking out his hair tie to let his hair down. He messed with it to get that notch feeling that comes with having it up tightly all day. Once this task was accomplished, he joined Tao on the couch.

Tao's eyes glanced over, a spark of something Takeo couldn't identify, glittered in his eyes. That glint always meant something bad or less than bad, but not good.

Seeing this as an opportunity, Tao curled up in Takeo's lap. Positioning his arms in front of him as he leaned his back against Takeo's midsection. He was comfy and he had his own heater!

Takeo gave a small yelp in surprise but just let it happen. He remembered the last time Tao did this and Takeo tried to push him off...yea that didn't go well since Tao just hugged his waist and didn't let go, for the entire day. Plus, this is Tao after all. Takeo wasn't as cold as Tao, but he did admit the heat was pleasant.

M-21 first went to turn on the fireplace, something the other two forgot.

" Thanks M'!" Tao smiled as he curled up more to his 'pillow'. Takeo thanked him too. He felt bad that he forgot to do before laying down.

Waving them off, he went to the machine on the counter. Getting the cups down that he would need. He decided to make hot chocolate, having heard the children talk about it. He heard them say that it was nice if you just came in from the cold.
