Dragoon : "....that made no sense whatsoever....so long as she dosen`t try to help or mention my wife then I`ll come back,otherwise I`ll pay her back and hit the road",he sighed and headed back to Indias place,the door was still unlocked so he let himself in,"if you think I`m coming to apologize think again,mention my wife again or offer any advice and I`m gone,I want to be clear on that"
"Fine..." she kept
to herself on the bed as her mews whined audibly, just enough at all the tension
in the house. Cats hated stress...and they were no exception.
She sighed.
'He thinks that he's the only one who has lost somebody...everyone has lost
someone!! It's so pompas of him...'
Linara licked her nose gently. <He's a
hot blooded male.>
'To think I just wasted that money to get to know
him.'
<It was a good idea...> Sokuro jumped up on her back and purred
gentle.
'No it wasn't.'
<Okay so it wasn't...big deal let's move
on!> The lionfish mew chirped gently. <Point is...Starshine got him back
here so the least you could do is be a good hostess...>
'You guys are
hungry arent you?'
<YES!!> all of them shouted at once.
She
smirked and got up, heading past Dragoon to the kitchen. He dismissed it, until
18 mews trodded after her.
"Do you want anything to eat or
drink?"
".....I doubt you`d have any volcanic water,you know water thats been filtered through cooling magma...helps me keep my flames in use...",he didn`t make eye contact with her,staring at the floor,he didn`t let on that he could read thoughts just as well as mews.'I`m not pompous..its how she died...'
"I have natural
bottled spring water..." she smirked gently. "No..though. No magma spots around
here. Sorry."
She dug into the fridge and pulled out various assortments
of fruits, and sandwhiches. Tons of them. She took out a few bowls, cleaned
them, filled them with cold water and set them on the ground. The mews grabbed
what they wanted and perched all around the room, the sound of soft eating
surrounding them both.
Dragoon : "ah well,I have plenty stocked up in my fridge so I can skip one night...so anything else you want to know about this old lizard?"
"I'm afraid to ask really." she took a bite of her sandwhich. Looking at Sokuro as he chewed on an apple, Linara licking her orange and the others switching some food around.
Dragoon : "so long as you don`t want to know about my life before I joined the studio anything else is fine"
'Starshine...' she
thought to her mews. 'Why did you bring him back?'
<It was money you spent
wasn't it?>
'Yeah...but...'
<So money is money I thought...you
seemed so...intent to know him...>
Although talking to one another
psychically, the mew would stop eating in order to think about the words he
would say.
'That was then...this is now.'
<Uh huh...you blame him for
not gettingover his wife...and you're not over Kalil.>
'Starshine you know
NOTHING about Kalil! He can cry about his wife all he wants but---'
<It's
not the same to either of you is it?>
'...no it's not the same for either
of us...'
<Then there ya go.>
Dragoon : "you must have some questions,I doubt you just wanted to ask me about my love life,however stagnent it may be,otherwise I`m wondering what you paid to have my company for"
She was quiet for a
moment. Then shifting her eyes to the mews she answered quietly.
"I
just....wanted to get to know you was all.....some 'friend' I am huh?" she shook
her head sadly.
Dragoon raised an
eyebrow,"I don`t know whats got you down,we`ve only really glanced at each other
you know,I`m not sure if we`ve even said hi before today"
He rubbed the
back of his head,"alright maybe this`ll work,why don`t you tell me a little bit
about yourself,recent so I don`t open any old wounds,then if you have a question
ask and I`ll answer it"
"Uhm...well
letsee." she swallowed the bit of her sandwhich. "Single mom to two
children...dating Moore, run an art studio, work two jobs part time and a full
time job at night...raise 18 magic mews and an array of other animals." she
shook her head. "Not much more to it than that."
<Chips??> the mews
begged. She smirked and handed them a bag of chips, they all took the bag and
shared it around.
Dragoon : "okay....quite a bit for one woman...but why living in a cramped apartment,I mean with all those jobs it shouldn`t be hard to pay the bills and I`m sure Moore would lend what he had to help cover anything"
She shook her
head.
"Moore doesn't know." she took another btie and finished it off. "I'd
prefer it if he never knew...the boy does too much as it is. I left him in
charge of the MMAS because he burns the bills and can handle crediters very
well."
Dragoon : "...him and Tom are very alike,he does the same with bills"
B: I want
seafood.
EM: I want Mexican.
R: I want pizza.
Vile sweatdropped,"uh....well this may be awkward,how about we get chinese instead?"
She nodded and
walked over, sitting down by him. "Look...Dragoon about earlier. I'm sorry...I
just wanted to help..." she shook her head. "But it never comes out the way I
want it to."
Starshine and the others grinned at eachother as they
emptied the bag of potato chips. They mewed gently to one another,
talking.
She shook her head and leaned back, closing her eyes.
Riko was still
grinning--even after the full 40 minutes of lecturing about careless spending
from a VERY full-voiced Lisa.
"And I want Moore back here tomorrow
morning so that I can see just HOW you're taking care of them!" Lisa finished as
Riko walked out of the bedroom.
"Of course..." Riko turned to the two
boys. "Let's go home!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cor was
immediately greeted by Galen's three lil kids.
"COR-SAN!" Jinka the fox
boy jumped into his arms.
"WAIIIIIII!!!" The cat twins each huggled a
leg.
"A lil explaination, dear?" Jeff asked.
Galen slightly
blushed. "Wellll...remember that one auction the cheerleading squad had during
senior year of high school?"
"Yeah..."
"They had the same thing
for Cor's studio--except opposite gender."
"Ahhhh...and how long is he
supposed to be here?"
"16 hours."
"Just 16 hours! I thought it
would be a full week!"
"So did I..." Galen shrugged. "Ah, well--at least
we have someone to help Gospel take care of the kids while we're
away."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"You BOUGHT him?" Kevin and
Valgaav asked in surprise.
"Yep! And he's totally MINE for tonight!" Lyra
giggled. "ohhhhhhhhhhh...this is gonna be FUN!!!" And she skipped off to her
room...where Kor was waiting.
"I'm getting the ear plugs," Kevin
stated.
"And I'm getting a head-ache, in case Mother is NOT using a ball
gag..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Oh, Stevie, I'm home!!!"
Riko shouted as she entered her place where she and her husband, Steven Kunz,
lives.
"Oh, hi, Riko! I...."
"They followed me home, dear. Can I
keep them?" she playfully asked.
Tom : "er
hey..."
Moore : "....I`m worried Tom"
Tom : "me too..me
too..."
---
Kor : "I just hope you get what you paid
for"
---
Cor set down Jinka and pried the kids off his legs,"okay
so I guess I`m babysitting you lot..just one thing see this bandaged wing,its
important you don`t touch it and if I`m not that chiper its because something
bad happened today,so what do you three want to do?"
"PWAY!!!"
Jinka sighed. "They wanna play queens, baddies, and
heroes, but I dun wanna be the baddy again! I've played the baddie tons
already!"
Tom : "okay
Riko,what is it you have planned for us?"
Moore however waved his hand in
front of Stevens face,"I think she broke him"
---
Cor : "okay I`ll
be the badguy..I can guess what part your parents play heh..."
The twin giggled,
then they began squeeling, "EEEEE!! Mean Wobots!!!"
"Help us! Help us!
Evil doctor Wily is taking us away for mean thingies!!" Jinka added.
Dragoon : "thats
why I only offer to support the guys with their problems,everyone deals with it
differently,just don`t hate me for holding onto something"
---
Cor
smirked and folded up his good wing,then pulled his poncho over his head so it
acted like a hood.
"yes run,run for your lives,you cannot escape...'god I
feel like a prat...'"
"Hold, foul
scientist!" Galen stepped forward with a plastic sword. "I, the great Blue
Knight, will not rest until thou are defeated!"
"And I, the might Red
traveler, will help thee!" Jeff added, posing in a red cloack...a red
POLKA-DOTTED cloak...
OOC : checked your
PMs recently Lisa?
Cor aimed his busters,he thought for a second trying
to remember if at least one of his weapons were safe,finally remembering that
one he installed for training,several soft pellets firing at Galen and Jeffs
feet.
"hah like you stand a chance against me!"
---
Kor :
"Lyra,before we begin,just one question,have you ever thought of having a
kid,not like adopting one,I mean actually having one?"
---
Tom
looked over at Moore,the silence was a little disconcerting.
OOC: Yes, I
have...and I'll reply to it when I've worked up the info in my
head...
IC: Lyra paused for a moment. "...not that often, no... I've
heard that mixed breeds may not be as fertile as the pure-breed types...but I
would really love to actually bear a child." 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Both men playfully 'dodged'
the bullets and mock-attacked Cor.
"Yay, yay!" the twins
cheered.
"Go, heroes! For great peace!"
Cor jumped back
from them,using his KMT acting lessons to look as corny and dramatic as
possible,firing another few shots,horribly misaimed.
"justice,pah evil
will rule"
---
Kor smirked,"well,why not make a start...and uh one
other question","yes?",he lifted up the aforementioned ball gag,"when the heck
did you get this?"
Lyra blushed deeply. "...One of the guys gave it to me after our honeymoon--he mentioned something about be being...well, very vocal sometimes." ^^;;; "Errrr...you don't mind, do you?"
"er....its...curious I`ll give you that..and better than the blow up doll Vile got me...I shoulda known when he got me a puncture kit at my last birthday"
The children
gathered in a huddle and out of ear shot of Vile.
R*wiping her eyes*:
Well...what do you think.
ES: We could be difficult.
B: Been
there, done that.
ES: More difficult then.
R: I'd say we let him
take us to chinese then we find a place to play.
They all nodded in
agreement and turned back to Vile.
R: Ok, chinese it is.
ES: Then
we go somewhere fun to play.
B: A carnival.
R:
Festival.
ES: Archade
He smirked,"fine
we`ll go to a chinese and then we`ll head to all three,I can pull enough
favours,lets go,sides I`m starved too"
---
Vile sat the kids down
in the resturant,"okay so what do you three want...and uh keep it cheap I`m
having to pay for this"
OOC: Eh, I figured
I make myself useful
IC: X was at a local resturant called "Shen-Do's Chinese Diner
and Take out". The waiters were all Shen-Do plushiemon (All trained not to hate
their job). X was picking at a bowl of noodle soup, completely bored. Blizzard
Wolfang on the other hand was drenching the table with chicken broth and Iris
was trying her hardest to ignore it.
Iris: What have I said about table
manners, Wolfang!?
Blizzard Wolfang: Did you say we like
them?
Iris:
;;;
ES: ChowFun
drenched in hot mustered.
B: Seafood clay bow.
R: Potstickers and
porkbuns.
Vile spouted off
what the kids wanted to the waiter and also gave told him what he wanted,simple
beef curry,his wallet was hurting bad now.
"I hope you three eat and not
throw it all around"
OOC: Not exactly
sure if you're in the same resturant X is. If not, this is a wasted
post.
IC: Shen-Do soon returned with the meals.
Shen-Do: I do hope
you aren't as messy as my other customer over there. (Points to Blizzard Wolfang
who's demanding more soup)
ES proceeded to tie the ends of the noodles together and slurped them all up. Bastian made the seafood dance their way to and in his mouth. Racqel smashed the potstickers together and in between the porkbuns, then ate them like a sandwich.
Viles fork dropped as he watched the twins,"...suddenly I`m not feeling all that hungry,dancing food is not good..."
Iris: At least
you're not getting wet with chicken broth.
X: Cut it out, Wolfang! Some
of us are trying to stay dry!
Viles eye twitched and looked at his beef curry,"its not fair,theres food in front of me,but I don`t want to eat it.."
