Warnings;



Ignis had heard of the reports of beings that sounded an awful lot like Tonberries he'd fought at home from his husband Nida who was in the guard. He also kept his ears open at work at the Hunting Lodge and people were fond of pulling him aside as he made his rounds and talking about the creatures. The more details he got, the more convinced he was that somehow the little green devils had made their way here.

Tonberries were daemons in his world and he and the lads fought them along with other nefarious ones in black robes. So he was quite well versed with their fearsome capabilities. However, the knives he'd acquired from fighting them back home didn't come with him and he decided to go see the creatures he kept receiving reports about.

Putting down the notes he'd made in the green leather book that Detective Llewellyn Watts had gifted him on his wedding day, the advisor sighed to his companion.

"I do suppose this means a hunt is in order."

Nida had to laugh and finally he moved forward, thrusting in with his weapon in hopes of knocking the knife from the Tonberry's grip. It was his hope that this would be possible, even though he'd never seen it done before.

"You're just so adorable in how you are in love with this dear."

Ignis had smiled at his husband and watched his husband's handiwork with a sword as they continued their fight. The Tonberries were hardy little devils and he spun his lance around to thrust into one of their bodies when it appeared they got too close to his mate.

"Nothing like a good fight to get the blood pumping."

There were other things too, but fighting these little green men was first on the list.

"Oh there definitely is, love," Nida laughs, spinning the Naginata to knock away the other Tonberry a bit away from Ignis. Don't let him sneak around. "Fire spell, by the way."

He charged the spell and threw the fireball out. Fun.

Ignis nodded with a smile at hearing the laugh from his husband. It was good because it was keeping his own worries at bay for the moment. He saw the Tonberry almost skitter and moved to avoid the incoming fire spell.

And to the one that just got singed with the fire, Ignis then shoved his lance into it.

[skyward_eyes]

Dammit, the thing moved from the worst of the blast. Asshole.

"Fucking. Hate. These," Nida hissed, slashing his weapon down. What he'd give for a haste spell. Or even a small measure of the true magical talent his husband had.

"Hey, watch out!" he shouted then, as he saw another tonberry falling in from above. He managed to spin his weapon so that the staff of it knocked the tonberry aside before it could stab his husband.

Ignis just smiled because even if Nida wasn't really saying something pleasant at least the banter was there. "And I'm sure they don't look fondly on you either darling."

That's when he noticed the falling Tonberry and Ignis moved almost too late as he got the warning.

That had him switch weapons and his daggers came out with a quickness, ready for battle.

[skyward_eyes]

"Could be worse. Could be a dragon," Nida snaps back as he tries to keep his attention on the tonberry in front of him. What else can he do? He has to just keep going. "You're beautiful when you fight like that."

[faithfulsupport]

"You and your dragons." Ignis smirked as he avoided getting skewered by the nearest Tonberry. And as he was about to try and summon Fire to his blades, he was temporarily caught in Nida's gaze.

Somehow he wasn't ready to be called beautiful, especially during battle. And so his face turned slightly red as he looked away and kept his gaze on the nearest foe.

"Yes well, if you insist on keeping this up and these chef's knives will be forgotten on the counter when we get home. And the table will become a temporary bed."

[skyward_eyes]

"Yeah, well, when you're a chew toy for one, you come to hate them," Nida answered, even as he was cartwheeling to avoid another damn stab. These things were annoying.

"You think that's going to turn me off of the idea of talking like this, love? You're going to get me talking even worse."

[faithfulsupport]

Emerald eyes had taken in that cartwheel. For all that his husband thought that he was breathtaking, Ignis believed the very same of Nida.

Blocking an incoming stab, Ignis managed to get a good sharp set of daggers into one of the Ton's faces. And then he turned to notice one creeping near his husband's leg and he threw one of his daggers with its pinpoint accuracy right into the creature's forehead.

With a very slight smirk at his own handiwork, the advisor nodded. "I absolutely love to hear you talk naughty."

And that was true, it was a huge turn on for Ignis.

[skyward_eyes]

Well, that's two seriously down, leaving only one, which Nida drove the blade of the naginata through. ALl three down.

Now to collect the spoils and hope they weren't ambushed by more.

"Darling, you're the one talking naughty."
