â WOLFRAM GRACE
He wasn't quite sure why he found it worse that they accepted his sexuality so easily, rather than them being upset or disgusted. Perhaps because he never really knew how to handle kindness, didn't understand people so open-minded and not constantly on the defense. That was just how he had been raised, it was how his family was. Always ready to start a fight, always wanting to be the one on top. It was just something he was used to. And his family definitely wasn't very open to personal conversations, so telling them that he just wasn't interested in girls would probably never happen. It wasn't like he spoke to them very often, so he didn't have to worry about it anyways. Whenever he had to attend one of the family meetings he could just find some girl to go with him, be his date and then he could ditch her the next day. That sort of things happened to girls all the time, right?
As it turned out though, these people weren't like his family. Actually, most of them were like him- which admittedly freaked him out a bit. Gray and Prothero were exactly like him, bi-sexual, even though Prothero admitted to preferring men. Though the other demon, Romeo, had apparently decided not to share. And Jack was, uh, homosexual. Gray's suggestion of Carrot being bi actually earned a laugh from Wolf, which was terribly hypocritical of him but he didn't care. When he glanced back at Jack he realized that the human was watching him, causing the blonde boy to blush slightly. "I- I know what you mean, Jack. Girls just... are too much work."
* Ironic, since Wolf is probably more work than a girl is.

â ROMEO ARAZ
Romeo's cheeks were a bright red color throughout the whole entire conversation pertaining everyone's sexuality. He was glad that Gray hadn't asked him, because he wouldn't really have been sure how to answer. Of course he knew he was gay, but no one else did. And while he could have lied and said he was straight, well, what he was doing with Prothero at the moment would look awfully weird. Not to mention the fact that he didn't want Thero to think of him differently because of that, or treat him different. Because.. he liked Thero. In a weird, crush-y way. Another thing he never wanted to admit, because everyone would probably just laugh right in his face. That wasn't something he ever wanted to happen again- it had definitely happened enough in middle school... and just about everywhere else he went. Arcbell was one of the only places where he could be *himself*- or as close to it as he dared -and not be bullied or teased for it.
With Thero's chin resting on his head, Romeo gently leaned his head against the larger males chest, his blush finally fading. "I'm like Jack, you know." His words were hesitant, completely unsure and maybe even frightened. "I like... guys." The one arm that he had around Thero tightened, and the hand that was ghosting over his friends wings visibly shook.
