Powers nerfed & gained

Self-healing: Nerfed on arrival from near-instant to delayed by a few minutes. Think 5-10.

Superhuman strength: Nerfed on arrival. Still super strong, but not to the same extent.

Dragon Blessing - Strength: Makes up for original nerf. Plus dual sets of horns, one pair curved down to frame his face, one pair curved back and up. Sharp and harshly angled, like his sunburst tattoos.

Dragon Blessing - Balance: Thick, alligator-like tail.

Deaths & Resurrection prices

Death - August 2024: Killed by a Corrupted Vash.
Price: Marksmanship skill. Can no longer aim a gun worth a damn.

Other permanent changes

Memory Loss - February 2024: In Razlo's heartspace, his memory of Chapel defending him to the other Masters was destroyed. He still recalls having been fiercely loyal to Chapel, but not why.

Scarring - March 2024: Scars in an enormous jaw pattern spanning from his thighs to upper arm, with teeth marks along both his chest and back.

Temporary changes

Hydra form - May 2025: from Event/TDM 24. A bunch of fungi made LR into some fun guys.

CODE

weasel's note: livio's handwriting is extremely neat and uncannily consistent. every letter is always the same exact size and shape. as if simply writing perfectly in times new roman was a humanly possible thing.

livio can commonly be found where he lives at vash's house or looking after the school.

[it feels just a little ridiculous that "baby" makes him even redder, but liv doesn't fight it. just chuckles some more.]

I'll keep my options open, then, hot stuff.

[he's just pulling these out of his ass at this point. fuck if he knows whether people actually call their significant other that. what he does know is that wolfwood is looking awfully kissable right now, so by golly, he's going in.]

[lupusxylem]

[Judging by the way Wolfwood snorts when he says it, he certainly wasn’t expecting to be called that at least. He appreciates Livio trying though, it’s cute. Hot stuff…

When he sees him coming in for a kiss, it’s one happily received. It’s actually a little thrilling, to have someone Livio’s size leaning over him like that. Like, he’s not (strictly) a bottom, but-

He reaches up to wrap his arms more fully around Livio’s neck again, kissing him slow and lazy. It’s nothing incredibly deep, but it’s not the chaste smooches from before. And if Livio suddenly feels Wolfwood’s tongue dart out for a taste of his lips, don’t worry about it.]

[livlaughlove]

[it feels... so nice, and deceptively peaceful, to be able to lie here with nick and laugh and kiss. it's almost enough for even livio's subconscious to forget they're trapped in a place that wants them to suffer. almost.

as it is, outwardly, he follows wolfwood's lead, keeping a relaxed pace. his lips willingly part at the slight prod, and an almost whiny sigh escapes at the same time. his fingers flex, tugging slightly at nick's hair before he eases them to massage at his scalp instead.]

[lupusxylem]

[Deceptively peaceful is right...though, it's not like they're in No Man's Land right now. They don't have to worry about Chapel, or the Eye. They don't have to worry about the orphanage being in danger, because it's not here. Maybe there's something to be said about not being home to know what's happening in their absence, if anything, but...Wolfwood can't say that's at the forefront of his mind currently.

For now, they're safe. Everything is okay. Nothing can get them in here, and even if it could, it wouldn't last long between the two of them.

It's nice to be able to just be. That's not a luxury either of them have been afforded since they were kids, which is why Wolfwood isn't rushing this. He's paying attention to Livio and his reactions, and judging by the sound he made just then? He's enjoying it, which is good.

Wolfwood, in contrast, groans at the slight tug to his hair. He likes that, thank you, more of that please. Maybe he'll try to encourage it by giving Livio's hair a slight tug of his own just before deepening the kiss proper the moment Livio allows it.]

[livlaughlove]

[livio doesn't stand a chance of maintaining any semblance of composure, between the noise wolfwood makes and the tug in his own hair. he moans openly into nick's mouth, then fears melting both of their faces off from how hot the immediate embarrassment makes him.

maybe it's enough to distract himself by complying with wolfwood's desires, reaching up to work a second hand into his hair and balling strands up in between his fists. still restrained, always far more gentle than he could be. his tongue prods the intrusion of nick's shyly. also as always, livio is slightly overwhelmed but desperately trying to keep pace with his beloved nicholas.]

[lupusxylem]

[Wolfwood's just fine with this much. He doesn't want to push too far, yet at the same time he's desperately hungry for more, now that he's been given a taste. And who can blame him, really? Especially with the knowledge that he can have this. That it's okay.

It's so freeing. A little overwhelming, too. But overall, just...

Wonderful.

He won't keep Livio pinned in the kiss for too long, at least. Just long enough to make it a proper make-out session before he pulls away with a soft sound, humming under his breath. God, that sound Livio just made...]

You're a good kisser.

[livlaughlove]

[who is keeping whomst pinned... this is the real question. livio just bats those lashes at wolfwood and stares, dazed and smitten, at him from above once the kiss ends. it takes him a few seconds to process the words and formulate a response.]

... I am?

You are.

[lupusxylem]

I'm only so good as the person I'm kissin'.

[He chuckles as he says this, pulling his fingers again through the back of Livio's hair.]

You gonna keep growin' this out? I'm gonna need a little more to grab onto, I think.

[livlaughlove]

[livio tries so hard to keep the sound in his throat a hum and not let it grow any deeper. he deserves praise. his hair is decent by now, just at his shoulders when down, but... god.]

Yeah. Yeah, as long as y'want it, darlin'.

[lupusxylem]

[Darlin'? Oh, god, that actually makes Wolfwood giggle. Lord help him, christ.]

Haha, okay, you're startin' to get too good at that.

[livlaughlove]

[oh... nicholas is so cute, actually. livio can't imagine many people alive have ever even heard that sound... he does feel awfully special, actually.]

At what?

[lupusxylem]

You keep pullin' pet names outta your ass.

[He shoves Livio lightly as he says that before dropping his head against his shoulder again, mostly so he can hide how fiercely he's started blushing.]

You're gonna kill me.

[livlaughlove]

[oh no... too bad this is PRIME real estate for hair nuzzles!]

Don't die, hon... [oh. he laughs at himself quietly.] Ah... oops?

[lupusxylem]

Aghhhh, stooop.

[Wolfwood shakes his head, burying his face against Livio's neck. ...only to plant a kiss there because he has to get back at him somehow.]

I really have created a monster, fuck's sake.

[livlaughlove]

[at least wolfwood gets the satisfaction of coaxing a shiver and some goosebumps out of livio, so he has that going for him.]

Sorry... [he doesn't sound sorry at all.]

[lupusxylem]

[He knows you're not sorry at all. God. >|

He will give Livio a squeeze though, sighing much like a contented animal might. He loves to cuddle with Vash, don't get him wrong, but...there's something to be said about cuddling with Livio. There's so much of him to hug.]

You're gonna make up for it by lettin' me sleep here tonight.

[livlaughlove]

[... ah. and just like that, livio is the flustered one once again.]

I am?

I mean -- 'course you am. You can! Ah...

[lupusxylem]

If you wanna, of course. I just...

[Wolfwood shrugs one shoulder, somehow managing to cuddle even closer to Livio than he had before.]

I don't really wanna get up.

[livlaughlove]

[liv sure as shit isn't complaining. he settles down onto his side and pulls nick close by the waist. even manages to yoink his blanket over -- well, mostly over wolfwood. livio himself is plenty warm.]

Can stay as long as y'want, Nico...

[lupusxylem]

[The way Livio pulls him in like that gets Wolfwood grinning again to himself, his head still tucked comfortably against his neck. He knows that with the blanket pulled over them he isn't going to be much longer for this world, which is fine. Vash knew he'd be coming over, so he can just assume this is what ended up happening if he simply does not return. He is with Livio, he's safe, he didn't get sucked in by the forest or anything dramatic like that.]

Good. And...keep callin' me that, too. I like it.

[Livio is the only one in the world who is allowed. Sometimes Vash, but...mostly Livio.]

[livlaughlove]

[he smiles into wolfwood's hair.]

Will do, Nico.

[as for livio... he'll probably spend the better part of the night waiting to wake up. because surely this part is the dream.]
