Anotsu and Helena Bob Dobbs *Anotsu sits at the table and sips at his hot Coco. Helena is on hand to help him out* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf  Nimlaurë Felt she was getting accustomed to traveling between her new home & the shop now. Sometimes, she could fly low with her wings, keeping her from having to slither through the snow that surrounded her home at this time of year.
The golden dragon medusa could not put her finger on why she had returned to the shop today. Perhaps it was the female Voodoo's comment on falling prey to lethargy. Whatever the reason, Nimlaurë was there now.
Folding her wings so that she could bring them through the whole in her coat for them Nimlaurë removed her coat & hung it in the hall closet. That done, she headed for the living room. Perhaps there was something to catch her interest there or on the way.
Her wandering gaze caught the flash of color from inside the kitchen & the golden female paused to peer inside. She recognized the female, but not the male with her. "Hello again, Helena."Kipestshin Thomas looked at his near empty drink. It was nice to be warm. He sprawled out on the coutch and let out a contented sigh and shut his eyes. Bob Dobbs *Helena left Anotsu for a few minutes as she saw someone come in. She snickered at Thomas almost passed out on the couch and covered her mouth with her hand in order not to wake him* Steal Jacentus slithered down the hall, his hands empty again, though the thought of food running through his mind. He looked down at his trim waist seeing it as fat. It was terrible the kind of doubts that could be set in a mind just from a mistake. He sighed and looked for a place to sit and rest, seeing a bean bag chair in the main sitting room. It looked perfect for the time being. Kipestshin Thomas wagged the tip of his tail that hung over the arm of the couch like a contented cat. He was to caught up being happy to really do anything. Well... at least get up and say hi. Bob Dobbs *Helena waved at Thomas and the nice Medusa she met the other day and them went back into the kitchen to take care of Anotsu.* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf She nodded and smiled as Jacentus passed by her, noting that it appeared the one Mitsume had called Thomas was in the living room or family room or whatever the name of the room was that she could see from the kitchen. She slithers in, deciding that she shall make some tea. Enough for all that she had seen if they wanted it.
Nimlaurë quirked a brow at the carney female. "Something amuses you?" Then to the masked male. "Good day. I am called Nimlaurë. I hope I'm not interrupting anything. I thought I would make some tea." Steal Jacentus nodded at the female that seemed to have at least noticed him, then he glanced at Thomas who was laying on the sofa. Well, it was good that someone seemed relaxed, though now it made him wonder just how welcome he was going to be in that room. He didn't want to discourage anyone from doing as they always did. Bob Dobbs (I cannot stop laughing tonight, whats wrong with meeh? lol ) Nothing bad I assure you *Says Helena from the kitchen. She had already started making some tea for everyone if they chose to have some.* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf Pale violet eyes blinked, seeing the pot already on the stove for tea. "It appears you have beaten me to it." Her voice is flat, neither disappointed nor holding any other emotion. With a faint shrug of her bare shoulders Nimlaurë opens a cabinet to produce tea cups & a tray. Bob Dobbs *Helena smiled appreciatively and poured water into the waiting cups Nimlaure had so kindly placed out for her.* thank you so much Kipestshin Thomas cracked an eye open. The room was full of lovely medusa. "Hey there! Blue! ... uhhh yeah you J-Jacesomething! good ta see you out and about. " Steal Jace blinked as he noticed that he was being spoken to. He spread his wings and rose back to slither closer to Thomas. "You are speaking to me?" He pressed one hand to his lips and looked down. "YOu were not so.. well you seemed to not wish to be around me before.." He the musical voice cut out a bit. Bob Dobbs *Helena brings out some tea for all and sets it on a table. She hands Thomas a mug in case he wants one before sitting down and enjoying the company. She'd let Anotsu skulk around by himself in the kitchen for now knowing he did not play well with others* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf "I do what I can." Nimlaurë remarked almost casually, her attention seeming to be on some unknown spot. "Would you and your friend like to join me, Helena? I thought I would offer some to Jacentus & the one called Thomas in the other room."
Already she was picking up the tray & heading for the door at a gentle pace. The tone of her voice indicated that she was being more polite than actually having a preference for what anyone chose to do. Kipestshin "Yesh i was talking to you." He gave a yawn. "your friends are in the kitchen makin' stuff..." He watched Helena bring him tea. "Thnaks ssssssweetnessss." He looked at her flirty but went back to just laying and taking up the whole couch.(Edit: i'd just roll with it Trel ^__^ or we will all be reediting posts all night) Steal Jacentus blinked and looked at Helena, then backed away fast "I have no friends." He sighed a little and shook his head, pushing blond hair out of his eyes. "Feh.. who needs them." He looked away and crossed his arms over his chest.
It seemed Thomas wasn't so interested in talking to him as he had hoped. He wasn't doing so good at the getting attention thing. At least not in the way he wanted. Bob Dobbs *Helena looks at him oddly and confused like* I wasnt asking if you had friends, I just wanted to know if you'd care for some tea. Kipestshin Thomas flicked his tounge. "Don't see why not.... they don't bite." He got a pervy grin before yelling, "HEY LADIES! you don't bite TOO hard for our friend here do ya?" Bob Dobbs *Helena bursts into laughter and on putting down her tea, tried to hold her mouth closed. She had not been expected that to come out of Thomas. It was completely inappropriate but it was so funny at the same time* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf She blinked a little, seeing that Helena had the same idea. Well, it was a good one. Taking her own cup she slipped into a seat across from the masked male. "Forgive me... I don't believe I caught your name."
As her own violet gaze slid lazily over his fit form before looking off into the distance Nimlaurë did not happen to notice that the male's 'gaze' took nothing in.
Hearing Thomas' outburst she shook in mild confusion. The only ladies she knew here tonight were Helena & herself. She supposed she must answer then & called out whith a firm carrying voice. "I've not bitten anyone yet." Kipestshin Thomas couldn't help but roll with laughter. "N-Not yet?!" he reached for his tea, laughing to much to pick it up without spilling splashes, "Someone is a bit more feisty then they let on!" He finally managed to sit up. "See Jace? pleeeenty of friends to be had!" xd Steal Jacentus cringed and looked a little green, which was strange on a blue draconic male. He shook his head and looked away. "Ugh... girls.. I am sorry, you must think wrongly of me, but I have no... interest in... anything with a female that would result in any kind of .. biting or contact of the like." The fluteing voice clearly conveyed his distaste. "I.. ... clearly misled you in thoughs..." He placed one hand to his face and sighed. "Perhaps.. i should return to my room, or speak to..someone about a relocation." He looked at the two females and shook his head a bit more. Bob Dobbs *Anotsu finished his coco and put it in the sink. Then he felt his way to the doorway and hovered in it to hear what everyone was saying. The laughter intruiged him but he did not want to come out just yet.* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf "Excuse me a moment." She said to the masked male, lifting her cup & slithering to the doorway. The comments from the other room insisted on being addressed.
Nimlaurë leaned on the doorway opposite Anotsu, not really exiting the room she was in nor entering the main sitting area. Her light violet gaze flicked over the body of the one she had been told was Thomas. At least he was not thin -his body had a pleasing build to it. "I don't care to confine myself in the future to what I may or may not do though I do find it highly unlikely I should bite anyone for any reason." To Jacentus she gave a gentle smile of understanding. "I suspected your beauty was only for females to admire, never have. Do not fear to trouble me." Bob Dobbs *He felt a presence near him but it did not feel like it was Helena. For the moment he tolerated it and remained silent. All he wished to do was listen in for the moment. It was better to remain silent and learn than to open ones mouth and let foolish things spew out. If only he had been allowed to bring even a practive sword. . . . * Kipestshin Thomas choaked a bit on hearing Nim's responce. "aw ssssssugar.... I'm just messsssing with ya." His took a long sip. The tea was nice. "Just you wait though... someone is gonna bite you good and hard, "His eyes twinkled wickedly, "then i bet you won't be shy 'bout it." Steal Jace was glad that someone seemed to understand, but was still not sure what to say or do. He wasn't sure who Thomas was speaking to, so assumed it was the female. Thomas most likely was the kind that liked having girls all around him.
He gave a little smile and fixed his hair, spreading his wings. "Alas.. I don't know why I am here..." Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf The doorway was an uncomfortable spot to hold a conversation. Nimlaurë inclined her head politely to the masked male for whom she still had no name & slithered gracefully yet casually into the main sitting area & finding a comfortable couch to recline upon. She sipped her tea lightly letting her gaze softly examine those present before looking of distantly. "Perhaps."
It was not that she was shy... more that she had yet to find someone to strike her fancy. Not that Nimlaurë was actively looking. For the moment she merely casually admiring beautiful and pretty things whether they be inanimate or animate.
"I take it you are the one called Thomas?" He did not seem temperamental to her. The male on the couch appeared almost... loving.
But the beautiful male's comment intrigued her. "Well, what is it you want, Jacentus?"
And both questions were asked without really looking at those she spoke too. Kipestshin (evening dooma ^___^) Thomas' smirking face twisted more into a snarl as he stood up. "You" He made direct eye contact with Jace, "are here because my master wishessss to sell you." His lips slightly started to curl.*edits for timing* He looked down to Nim and nodded. "yes." His voice still not quite plesent.Dooma Aderlass flicked his tail and looked at the books on the selfs. He turned his head hearing Jace's words he turned. "You are here becuase it is a nice place and amd it is safe." He turned to watched the starnger his hood covering his eyes. He looked at Thomas and rolled his eyes. Bob Dobbs *Helena drank her tea in silence. Jace was really confusing her and made it sound as if she had said things to him she had not. That kind of behavior did not motivate her to seek further conversation. She knew that Anotsu was in the doorway looking out for her however she did not need his kind of assistance. She could handle matters on her own with a rather ungentlemenly type. She admired the Patience Thomas was exibiting thus far and took note to try and do the same.* Kipestshin (not sure if this is needed, but to clarify... the only medusa that live in the petshop are mine. As it is a petshop, all medusa should have masters. they are welcome ot visit at any time, alone or with others... but they can't live here.) Steal Jacentus' comments were all in response to Thomas' words more than anyone else, he had in fact missed any offer of tea, as he was trying to strike up a conversation with one of only two he knew. It was apparent though that Thomas was a ladies man, and as such he was not really welcome to get too close.
He nodded and sighed. Sold.. he didn't want to be sold, he would have to have a talk with this.. master that Thomas spoke of. If he could ever find her. He was not going to be bartered off to the highest bidder.
As his tail started to snap in irritation, his cheeks brightening with color he heard another voice. "Safe? Im not safe being sold. I don't know what any of you are thinking to believe that! I am NOT an item to be sold off." He tossed his hair and crossed his arms over his chest, pride starting to show again. Attitude hot on its heels. Dooma ((OH I am sorry Kipestshin...I will try to get Aderlass to spend less time in the shop then lol, he practicaly lived there)) Aderlass rolled his eyes and picked a book then moved back towards the couch to sit on it. He did not know what all the drama was for.

Continued Kipestshin "Tough s**t." Thomas killed his tea, "it isn't like you get that choice."
He smiled a sick smile and went to the fridge. Might as well kill a 6 pack. Bob Dobbs *Anotsu broke the silence* fe, all talk no action *To noone in particular, he wasnt pleased how his "sister" was being treated and his temper was getting the best of him. He knew he needed to work on his instict to maul others but he felt he had a good enough reason to speak up for Helena if she wasnt going to. Whoever was clucking and complaining like a chicken would most likely be granted permission to have the aquantance of his fist as he had been forced to leave his weapons at home.* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf An arched brow was all that showed she had indicated the change of the conversation. Nimlaurë nodded calmly at Aderlass but still looked off almost disinterested. "Not all masters are bad you know. The woman who took me into her home is quite... pleasant."
She was starting to see how Thomas could be called temperamental now. Sipping her tea the gold female sighed -she would require a refill soon.
Nimlaurë inclined her antlered head but not her eyes to the masked male who had finally spoken. "And what action would you suggest?" Bob Dobbs *Helena got up and gathered empty tea cups. Taking them into the kitchen where her face burned with mortification. She decided that for the moment she would wash dishes and stay out of Jace's way. He obviously had issues with females or thought himself a Diva. She did not know what it was only that he had made her feel so small as if she were nothing. Steal Jacentus frowned and bristled more. "Tough s**t nothing! I insist upon speaking to this person that intends to sell me. I will not be owned like some simple pet! I at least deserve the right to choose who I am going to be forced to be around!" He curled his fists, long nails cutting into his palms and a deeper flush covering all of his face. He was not amused. "I will kill whoever buys me!" Bob Dobbs *Anotsu responded with a forced even voice though he was not reffering to her in his comment.* If you do nothing to change your circumstances except complain you are more useless than a geisha, less than a penny whore on the street. *He went to Helena and patted her awkwardly on the shoulder, trying to comfort her in a small way. He knew that jace had hurt her. Worse, he was unapolegetic and continued to be an arrogant whiner.* Kipestshin Thomas had ripped into medusa that had offeneded him less. Jace was on a one way track to an impromptu neuter. "Do NOT addressssss my master that way!" He slammed the fridge. "... and if i were you, i would be VERY careful what you demand princesssss..." His eyes were lightning, and lips were curled, barring fangs. Steal To be apologetic for something he wasn't aware he had done, was impossible. He was upset and angry, and also.. frightened. He had been taken from his old life, tossed into this place, and was now told he was going to be sold off to someone.
It also seemed that being mad or upset about it only made things worse. He surely wasn't going to roll over and deal with it, but he didn't know what to do. So many threats and so little option.
Jacentus looked around, his eyes filling with tears or frustration and upset. With a darting gaze he looked for a place to hide, a place to get away from this all.
He felt terribly trapped now. Bob Dobbs *Anotsu slithers out after making sure Helena was ok. He flicked his tongue to get a sense of where this "jace" was. Once he was able to he turned his sightless eyes in his general direction as if daring him to speak again. he folded his arms and just waited.* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf Deciding she no longer liked the atmosphere of this conversation Nimlaurë merely nodded. Her gaze flicked over Helena as the other dragon female took the cups. Such pretty gold markings... She contemplated Anotsu's response to her question, finding that she had done just that -chosen to change her circumstances before they were thrust upon her. And she liked that she had chosen, and what it had brought. Dooma Aderlass sighed and not wanting to be a part of this mess desided it was best just to move out side of the shop. He rubed his head and moved up and off of the couch again, returned the book and moved towards the door. Kipestshin Thomas caught sight of Anotsu. "Heya Sparkey... come to join the fun?" He just rolled his eyes at Jace and went back to get his beer.
He grabbed one and looked over at Helena. "Hey... you okay?" *he popped the lid and offered it too her. Bob Dobbs I will ask only once you apologize to Helena. You have no honor and no concept of loyalty. Any relations no doubt shamed by your self indulgent behavior. If you continue to dishonor Helena we will have to settle this some . . . other . . .way. *The bushido in him rose up as he spoke in defense of his "kin"* *Helena took the bottle with slightly shaky hands and thanked him in a low voice. She had never encountered anyone that sour and bitter nor had she ever been spoken to like that. She had not said anything that could have been taken as rude. All she had asked him was if he wanted tea. How could anyone be so offended by tea? she asked herself.* Steal Jace blinked and looked at the other male, his head tilting. "Apologize to who for what? I spoke to no one badly other than Thomas and I have no idea what in the world you are speaking of." He shook his head and turned away. "Im not dealing with you, I have more important things to deal with, like finding this person taht wants to sell me. I will not be parceled off to anyone."((the problem with just finding Jace an owner, is what I pmed you about a few days ago Kip. Its not so easy since its.. not normal)) Bob Dobbs You accused Helena of. . .what was it? "having an interest in biting you" Does this ring any bells? *Getting closer and closer to this "male" who acted like a demanding female.* I will not be asking you again unless you are ah. . . good with weapons? (Once you buy a Medusa you become its owner. I am the owner of Anotsu and Helena hence they live with me. Not so complicated as you might think. *offers cookie*) Kipestshin Thomas snagged another beer with his tail and joined the drinking."hey kid... " his brow furrowed, "don't look so down... its not you." *he took a sip* "... god I almost hope she does show up and straighten him out." Bob Dobbs *Helena leaned against Thomas, taking comfort where she could.* Thank you Thomas, I guess im just not as strong as you or Anotsu. *She smiled meekly and sipped her beer* Steal ((LOL not true in my case, I mentioned to Kip what I am planning with Jacentus, he is not MINE perse, I rp him but do not own him. *blinks* But.. ugh.. now I have to rework his whole character.)) "I said WHAT?" Jacentus shook his head. "I was responding to a comment that Thomas made about girls biteing and askign the girls if they bite. I said to him tha tI would not want to be bitten by a girl. I did not mean anyone in particular.. I just said.. I.. don't want.. I .. I like males not females!" He flapped his arms a bit, his voice going shrill and panicky. Such a mess today. He just wanted to run away now.Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf But she could not stay completely quiet. "Perhaps you will be fortunate to pick your human, Jacentus. I was."
She gave a small sigh. "Haven't you already made that plain?" She spoke softly, not really to anyone in particular -especially since it seemed most if not all had left the sitting room. HOwever her voice did carry. "But you don't have to be attracted to someone to partake of some simple manners & common courtesy." Bob Dobbs Is this a refusal to apologize? *he did not want to be beating around bushes. he wanted a straight answer, not more excuses. He did not care if the medusa was attracted to flying purple monkeys. What he DID care about was some idiot flapping his gums thinking he could say whatever he pleased. Anotsu spat near the feet of the honorless rogue and turned to go back to Helena to check up on her. if he was attacked from behind as cowards often did he had enough experience from being a captive to hear it. He might have been blind but he still knew how to fight if this "Jace" wanted a fight.* Your blood is not worthy of being on my blade. (*I Should really do more research on Japanese honor* sweatdrop ) Steal ((Im sorry, I figured it was aleady set, I didn't want him to be owned by a human. I hate it planned one way, but I guess if I must.. I must. It is just disappointing to think I aleady brought it up and figured you said it was okay.)) Jace was too baffled. He didn't understand what in the world was going on in this place. Being owned, insulting people he didn't know. Being threatened not once but around three times in less than an hour.
What he did know was that there were not as many chances for friends here as he had been told. In fact, one chance he thought he had, had also threatened him. Thomas was apparently more than a little mad.
He sighed, dropped hsi shoulders and slithered back to his room, wings dragging on the floor.Bob Dobbs *Anotsu approached Helena and waited till she had finished her drink.* Would you like to go home? *Trying as hard as he could to be nice. Helena nodded and took Anotsu's hand much to his surprise. She knew he did not like physical touches but she knew he would tolerate it for her sake as she had a very bad evening. He walked her to the door and left to bring her home. She needed rest now and her room was the very best place for that. Perhaps he might come back to see if anyone was around but then changed his mind. He did not want to see. . . .him. Not yet anyway* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf
Nimlaurë was very surprised to discover most had now left completely, though it hardly showed on her indifferent face. She shook her head almost sadly from side to side, blue hair swaying against her cheeks. She had at least hoped Helena would say goodbye. The female seemed to have some manners at least. She had seemed upset when leaving with the quiet one. Nimlaurë was almost perplexed about the whole evening. Things must have spiraled out of control.
With a sigh she rose to return to the kitchen. Perhaps she would have another cup of tea before going home. Nimlaurë seemed to have forgotten Thomas might still be in there.
She enterred, paying little attention to anything save whether there was any tea remaining in the pot. Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf ((I was still here, Ryn! *huggles* But it's nearly two & I'm tired so I think I'll write Nim home now.)) She had another cup of tea, warming her insides for the trip home. Drama was so overrated. If I wanted drama, I would have found a theater of some sort. Her shoulders shrugged ever so slightly at her soft sigh as Nimlaurë placed her cup in the sink & checked that the stove was off. She suspected that Thomas was intoxicated but decided that he would probably be all right. Satisfied with her part in the state of the kitchen she went out into the hall, collected her coat from the closet & carefully donned it before heading outside.
She was most definitely going to relax in her bath as soon as she returned home.

Anotsu Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf ((mmm... anyone will do. *hugs*)) Call it curiosity, but Nimlaurë returned again to the shop. It could be she was simply testing the limits of her bonds with her human "master" though as a master Trelweny seldom acted as such. She had been welcomed home that night like a sister or friend, possibly a child but certainly not a piece of property or a pet. It baffled Nimlaurë slightly. Made her wonder how others were with their keepers. Thomas certainly had jumped to defend his "master" the other night, but he called Kipestshin "master" still.
"How very odd..." She murmured aloud as she removed her coat & hung it in the closet. Nimlaurë was going through the motions with a smooth carefree grace, her eyes as usual never seeming to focus on anything.Bob Dobbs *Anotsu stayed by a window feeling the warmth of the sun filtered through the paned glass. He could never get enough of the sun nor the way it felt on his skin. He had so many thoughts running through his mind. Thoughts of the past that really wouldnt do him any good bringing them up. he was able to be with others and enjoy the light though it seemed to bear more than one meaning now. Lifting a hand to his parted lips he recalled the kiss that him and Viktor had shared. A kiss that burned still and caused a blush to spread over his fine cheekbones. He was glad that his mask would hide the telltale signs of actual emotion. No matter how much he had fought it he feared that he was losing this battle and falling in love. In many ways he still despised himself for this weakness and vowed to be stronger.* Malis Delnaria  Aethelinda opened the door to the shop slowly. She peeked around the wooden frame before making her way inside the warm abode. Looking around she smiled to see a few others like herself and for a moment stayed by the door as if in thought. After making a decision she made her way to a bean bag in the corner. On her way there she knocked over a cup that had been sitting on the table near to her destination. It fell over with a c***k which startled her. Looking around quickly with pink running over her cheeks she replaced it and hoped that she had not disturbed anyone. Reaching the beanbag the dragon coiled around it and breathed a small sigh of relief before glancing around once more. She would wait to see if anyone would come up to greet her before poking her tail into something else. Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf The female that passed her in the hall looked oddly familiar. Like Chandre perhaps. Nimlaurë Casually Spotting the masked medusa Nimlaurë made her way to a spot between the two medusae, stopping within a range that would make for comfortable conversation but not to be particularly close to either of them. "Hello." She nodded politely to each, finding a couch to recline upon.
She paused wondering at the hand to his lips. "I don't believe I've properly met either of you. I am Nimlaurë. Bob Dobbs  *Anotsu heard a sound like a cup had fallen or almost fell and turned his head toward the spare bedroom he had been lost in thought in. He slithered out and paused by the door for a few seconds before making a solid decision to come out. He flicked his tongue in and out to taste the air and find out if it was someone he knew. he did not speak just yet but focused more on finding out if someone was here. Turning his sightless head around during this form of "scanning". He heard a regal sounding voice speak a greeting and found the sound very pleasant. From his experience it sounded like a voice from someone with a priviledged upbringing hence the formal edge to the voice. He sensed a second Medusa also. . . . .another female. One who's scent he did not yet recognize. Kagehisa Anotsu *He introduced himself and felt around for a seat so he would be able to sit down. * Dooma Aderlass was outside the shop. And looking around the area surrounding it. He didn't know why but for once in his life he felt like being outside the only home he knew. Everything that had been happening was too much for him, and he felt like he was a burden on Kipestshin and her three Meudsa. He sighed and moved towards a body of water. Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf The barest of smiles touched the corner of her lips to have a name to go with the -well, mask- at last. For some reason it bothered Nimlaurë not to know with whom she had spoken or otherwise interacted. "A pleasure to meet you, Kagehisa Anotsu. I hope your day has been pleasant so far." Bob Dobbs *The dulcet tone of the one called Nimlaure spoke again and inquired about his day so far. He answered as respectfully as he could wondering about her. he did not know much about his kind or if their was a hiarchy system in place however she did sound at the very least as if she were of a high station.* My day has been well, I thank you for asking. *Turning his head to where the other female was he was impressed by her silence. Twinges of curiosity about her rose up like vines in his chest.* Malis Delnaria Aethelinda turned to see the other female who came up to see her. "Hello, I am pleased to meet you," she uncoiled herself from around the beanbag for a moment before giving the female a hug and kissing each cheek. "I am Aethelinda, how are you this morning?" She noticed the other comming into the room and setteling down, this one was male and wore a mask. She smiled lightly and then made her way over to him. Embrasing him also and giving him a welcoming kiss on both cheeks she then turned back and smiled, "It's so nice to see you both, nice to be here..." She decided to coil around her the beanbag once more and settle herself back down for the moment. Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf She coolly & politely returned the female's gesture, herself not quite accustomed to much physical contact but adhering to an inner sense of decorum. "Pleased to meet you, Aethelinda. My day so far has been uneventful but pleasing."
Then her gaze drifted, not quite certain what to do now that the protocol for greetings had been seen to. Nimlaurë did not know if there was royalty, or if there was whether she was part of their caste -but she did appreciate manners & courtesy. Bob Dobbs *Anotsu's entire body stiffened at the unwanted embrace. Despite his distaste for such activities he tolerated it for now, including the kiss on the cheek and patted her awkwardly on the head. He was trying to get past the betrayal and these females had nothing to do with that situation. He reminded himself not to take it out on them but to merely sit and observe. In time he could become more successful and gain a few "Social skills"* Malis Delnaria The dragon settled herself down and smiled again, she felt her mind drift slightly before comming back and then blurting out, "So what kind of things do you like doing?" She had been sent to the shop to hopefully learn a better way to hold herself as it was obvious she was a little on the cheerful and blunt side and not one to think about serving before being served. She figited a little with one of her sleves as she looked around again with bright eyes. This shop seemed quite eclectic and Aethelinda decided she liked the feel of the place. Bob Dobbs *Anotsu gave an almost rude uncomfortable moment before replying. He preffered others to talk before he would. It enabled him to learn however he felt inclined to give an answer so as to not portray himself as an a**. He was tired however despite his weariness he would put what he HAD learned to good use.* I like training. Malis Delnaria "Training? In what way?" She wasn't sure she could feel the same way as him. The training she had recieved so far had been sproadic at best in the respect of how much she actually listened. She had the habit of loosing interest and letting her mind wander off elsewhere. And then there was that other bit of training... she shuddered delicatly at the memory and then tucked it back away where it couldn't be found. "You mean like learning how to surve tea and such?" That was something else she never really mastered, she usually knocked something over being quite accident prone. Bob Dobbs Training with various weapons, sharpening the blades, training the four senses. Sound,touch,taste, and spirit. That kind of training. I am especially good *here he smirked* with blind fighting. *His whole life he had known nothing else. Since he had hatched out of an egg his previous master had training him in nothing else but the way of the bushido for underground medusa fighting. It was the perfect way to make money off the backs of those he had enslaved. He had perfect eyesight back then, would thinks have been different if he had not lost?. Anotsu focused on Bob, his current master. He was not cruel at all and he rather liked him. He wasnt bad for a human.* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf What did she like doing? Conversation always seemed to tumble to that at one point or another. Her mind wandered as her light violet eyes looked off distantly. "Tea sounds wonderful."
Nimlaurë stretched slightly and rose from the couch. "Would either of you like some?" She asked lightly as she made her way towards the kitchen. They always had such nice tea blends in this place. "I will be back with some momentarily if you do." Malis Delnaria "Uuuuh... sure that'd be great!" Aethelinda grinned at the other female before turning back. "Trainging with swords? That sounds like much more fun that what I had to learn." Being female and supposidly somewhat 'high birth' she had been given training at towards her station. While she did not have the patience with learning embroidery and tea ceremony she had picked up the basics. She liked the learning to read but the few book she had access too were mostly the 'hero saves the damsel in distress' types and she had much more fun identifying with the hero than the damsel. Bob Dobbs If you would not mind *he said, referring to Nimlaure. He wouldnt mind whatever tea she made. It was his drink of choice.* And what did you have to learn? *He replied,curious as to what her master had been or was training her in. He did not know much about what the others did and wished to gain the valuable knowledge.* Malis Delnaria She waved her hand aimlessly in the air. "Oh I had to learn the normal stuff, sewing, embroidery, table manners, the proper way to serve tea..." She made an expansive gesture towards Nimlaurë as she spoke. "Ummm... I was tought how to sketch and paint, how to read and how to dance." She paused for a moment, "I love to read but I am terrible at dancing. We had to learn it to entertain whomever came in, like guests and such." She made a slight face remembering some of the other things she had to learn to 'entertain' the guests but kept the disgust from showing in her voice. It was obvious to a discernent nagah that she had belonged to a boarding-home like enviroment before she was 'given' to her newer master. Bob Dobbs (oooo a plot twist *interested*) *Anotsu thought it sounded a lot like a courtesin (splg?) or a geisha. However since he had never actually been in the presence of either he only had what the books had said to go on. He did not pry what other entertainments he had be forced to learn. Basing this on the tone of her voice he surmised it had not been favorable. It was not his right to that privileged information though he was curious. He nodded in approval and replied.* it sounds as if you have been taught a lot, I hope it had not been . . . unpleasant. . . .all that much. *He had started to fall over his words already. He hoped he would not be as clumsy for the rest of the conversation* Kipestshin ( Thomas crawled out of his room with a yawn. Where had the day gone? ... Hruffled his hair and made his way to the bathroom. He could hear talking going on. "meeeeh...." He shut the door and tried to wake up.) Bob Dobbs *Anotsu heard a door close and wondered who it was. There were so many people in the house at any given moment so he was not sure. He got up and went to the window craving the sunlight on his skin once more. He couldnt get enough of the warmth and brightness of it.* PestLone Thomas came out to join the world of the living. He wanted coffee Bad.
He was alost at it when he caught Anotsu in the corner of his eye."oh hey.... morning." Bob Dobbs *Anotsu turned and nodded in Thomas's general direction before continuing to sun himself.* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf Nimlaurë half listened to the others as she set the pot with water to boil, waited for it to do so, then allowed the tea to seep sufficiently. The addition of Thomas' voice caught her attention, nothing more. She added a cup to the tray she had readied & carried it out of th kitchen to the sitting area.
Silently Nimlaurë poured tea for everyone, graciously handing the cups around. To a trained eye one could see she was perhaps not trained to the highest levels, but she did well enough. Malis Delnaria o O (Sorry sorry, I got hungry and decided to cook myself something to eat ^-^~)Aethelinda shook her head before responding. "It was not that bad but I'd much prefer learning sword fighting like you did." She smiled and then watched as he got up and moved to the sunlight. Giggling lightly to herself she considered joining him other then but then got distracted by the new medusae who wandered into the room. "Well hello!" She got up and slithered over, giving him a hug in greeting and kissing him on both cheeks before releasing him. "It is a pleasure to meet you." Wandering back to her beanbag she accepted the cup of tea and took a sip. Bob Dobbs *He took the cup gratefully from Nimlaure and thanked her. The warmth of the tea felt so good as he sipped the flavorful brew. The combination of the sunlight and the tea made him very relaxed but as he was tired he tried to keep himself somewhat tense if only to stay awake.* Kipestshin Thomas rubbed his eyes. "uh... and hi ladies." *he was so very much not awake. Taking his fresh coffee he went and sat next to Anotsu. In a softer but platonic tone he asked, "... how is Helena doing?" Bob Dobbs Helena is feeling much better today, I appreciate your inquiry. *his respect for Thomas grew at that point because of it.* PestLone Thomas just closed his eyes and relaxed. Letting the coffee aroma surround him, " ... okay." He settled comfortable and suprisingly quiet. Malis Delnaria Tea finished, Aethelinda looked around wondering where everyone had seemed to dissapear off to. The new males medusae seemed to be more interested in chatting with the other male. It didn't sound like they were talking about anything interesting though so she let her mind wander again. Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf She had wondered off & on how Helena was doing herself though had not thought to ask Anotsu though the carny dragon female had left with him. Nimlaurë felt a relaxing in her at the masked one's response to Thomas' query... she had not expected to feel relieved over something so small.
She gazed into nowhere, quietly sipping her tea. Something told Nimlaurë that it was too quiet. Perhaps she should strike up a conversation. She exhaled perhaps more audibly than she usually would and turned her face to Aethelinda. "Forgive me, but did you travel with Chandre & the rest of us? I cannot recall." Kipestshin Thomas cracked his neck. "See ya around Sparky, ... ladies..." He slithered off to go take a warm bath. Malis Delnaria Aethelinda nodded, "I fell behind though because of... ummm... unforseen circumstances... so it took me a little longer." She wasn't quite sure she wanted to explain how she had wandered off after some trinket that someone had said granted wishes. She had hoped to wish for a good master, one who wouldn't mind that she 'had not fulfilled the testings to the utmost'. She also wasn't quite sure she wanted to mention that Chandre was her mother and so kept silent on that also. Gamely she changed the subject, "What do you think of the shop, it's pretty interesting hun?" Bob Dobbs *Anotsu goes to set his empty teacup into the sink and prepares to leave. On his way out he passes by a certain door and pauses recognizing that familiar scent. He lingers by it for a moment and reaches out as if to place his hand onto the smooth wood. Turning away he pulled back and continues toward the front door, letting himself out. He would need to be more reserved on these matters. His head should be making decisions, not his heart. The last thing he wanted was to be a burden. He wanted him to be happy with or without him.* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf She nodded & lifted a hand in farewell at Thomas' & Anotsu's departures without looking. Nimlaurë blinked her eyes slowly at the other female's tale. "Yes that would make sense. You are fortunate to have found the way alone." Nimlaurë knew she likely would have, traveling over unknown territory as they had.
"Interesting? Yes. You could say it is that." Her pale violet gaze actually focused on the female for a moment. She certainly reminded her of Chandre in some ways. Maybe the markings or the colorings. Not to mention her way of greeting... a hug and kissing both cheeks.
"Actually, I prefer my new home but I have been cautioned against lethargy." She smirked ever so slightly as if finding some humor in that disclosure. Malis Delnaria "What kept me doesn't really matter, I wasn't on my own when I traveled the way here which was probably a good thing but that can keep for a fireside tail or something..." The dragon waved her arm as if brushing the story away for another day. "My new home is... interesting to say the least. He does have a lot of books though, I do like that." Aethelinda nodded a farewell to the exiting medusae before turning back. "Cautioned against lethargy? I wonder why?"

Helena and Anotsu Kipestshin Thomas: WOOT!... i mean... of course i'm awesome without a trophy >.> Kipestshin Thomas: guess i just have to hit someone in the head to dent the other side. *sounds FAR too hopeful* Bob Dobbs *laughs at Thomas* I would have made it bigger but then it would have really been dented. Kipestshin Thomas: this size is just fine.... plus if it gets overdented, then i have a reason to hit them twice whee heart Bob Dobbs *Makes coffee* Im glad your pleased with it, I was hoping you would be. *Helena makes some tea for a few people as there is always visitors, including her.* Kipestshin Thomas: *has his chest puffed out* I am. *wiggles* I don't think anyone has a rophy as nice as me. *implying that someone was Viktor* ... coffee.... that smells so good ;___; ... *wiggles over to watch it drip longingly* hey there Helena... Bob Dobbs Yes and there is your nose *boops Thomas's nose lightly as he gave him a steaming mug of coffee. Bob sat down and chuckled, pouring flavored creamer into his coffee. Helena waved and smiled at Thomas before preparing the tea* Kipestshin *Thomas hissed and pulled back* mrrr..... *he took the cup as a truce. mmmm warm. *he looked like he loved it almost as much as his gift. Turning he looked at Helena half awake. You seem perky as ever X3 *waves* Bob Dobbs *Helena nodded and turned to look at Thomas for a second in order to be polite.* I'm well rested, I hope you are well also. *Bob took a sip of his coffee and enjoyed the steamy sweetness. He rather liked it here, in this house. The view was great, the creatures friendly and in general it was just a warm family type atmosphere.* Kipestshin Thomas: good enough *he tried not to grin* >.> ...you want some hash browns? ... i want some. *he pulled out a few potatos* how about you huma-... er... Bob? Bob Dobbs Potatoes sound good *Bob said, agreeing and taking another sip of his coffee. Helena poured a Mug of tea and went to see if anyone else was awake so she could offer it to them. Much to her surprise she ran into Anotsu coming out of one of the rooms and down the hallway. He was in the middle of tying a kimono around himself and wore his customary stoic face. She tried to offer him some tea but he slithered past her in silence and went toward a window to sun himself. Helena shrugged and continued down the hallway to offer the tea.* Kipestshin (awwww don't wake her up ^____^') *Thomas started on the potatoes. not paying much mind to where Helena bounded off too, as she wasn't one to sit still* So.... how are they working out for you? He looked at Bob almost epressionless, but not in a bad way.Bob Dobbs *Bob wondered if he were reffering to Anotsu and Helena or the hash browns but he couldnt be sure what it was. He assumed it was his Medusa so he responded accordingly.* I suppose I have no complaints, it takes work to deal with certain issues but I think in the long run it'll be worth it. *Anotsu wrapped the kimono around him tighter, it was pretty chilly and despite the sun a small draft was coming through the closed window. He felt so ashamed of his skin, himself. Would he be just doomed to spend the rest of his life making mistakes? folding his arms around himself he allowed himself to get mired up in his dark thoughts.* Kipestshin *Thomas flipped the crispy potatoes over* ... thats good. Helena seems like a handful... *pokes with a spatcula* good kid though... good kid. Bob Dobbs (I dont mind if you join us Kali) Helena is adorable, Ive never had a real performer in my house before. She has so much life in her. Its also nice to have someone helping in the kitchen. Usually I do all the cooking and she isn't bad at it at all, Better Id wager. *Helena had left a teamug for both Viktor and Mitsume(splg?)before coming back and finally getting her own tea to drink while she enjoyed everyones company.* Kipestshin Viktor was still softly asleep... and tired. He probably would be that way for a long while. But he would smile at the cup of tea when he found it. Thomas: *plated the foold and handed it to Bob* Tell me about it... god her muffins.... and cornbread. mmmm...=_= *half tempted to just sneak over to Bob's for food*Bob Dobbs *Bob took the plate gratefully and hoped there were no mice in it with a grin.* Thank you, this looks good. Kipestshin *Thomas let out a yawn* ... well salt is on the table if ya want it... *he was already sneaking bits off his plate before even getting a fork* Bob Dobbs You know, *taking a bite and finding it very tasty* You are always welcome to stop by and eat with us. The house is big enough and we wouldnt mind the company. *Bob threw a questioning look at Helena and she nodded in agreement* Helena: Right, It would be nice to have guests at our place. *Smiling at the fact that she COULD say "Our place". She was glad that Thomas really liked her cooking. he was in a way an older brother to her and she respected him. She even enjoyed his special brand of humor.* kaliskanny Dym scooted out of her igloo, Looking about lazily. She made her way to the kitchen, smelling the food. She waved at the others there. "Afternoon...hello, Thom." Kipestshin Thomas: *he smile smirked* thanks for the offer. I'll probably take you up on that someday. *He noticed Dym and offered her his plate* hashbrowns? *he said it like a weird offer* kaliskanny "That'd be nice, thank you, Thom," Dym nodded, looking at the plate. She seemed unsure if he wanted her to take his or not. Kipestshin *Thomas put it in her hands and went to make more* good to see you up. *he cracked his back and focused on cooking* Bob Dobbs *Helena finished her tea and made a plate for Anotsu. She brought it out to him and offered it. Anotsu glanced at the greasy pile of potato pieces and shook his head. Normally he would have eaten what she offered but today for some unexplained reason it just did not seem appetizing. The smell was actually making him kinda nauseaus. Helena came back into the kitchen and put the plate to the side in case someone else would want it.* kaliskanny "Well...my warm pillow went missing," Dym smriked, taking a bite of the hashbrowns. "Did you sleep well?" Kipestshin Thomas blushed a bit. "Yes i did... thanks *smirk*
He saw Helena on her way back with the plate. His brow furowed. "everything okay?" kaliskanny Dym watched the other female, then went back to eating. Bob Dobbs *Helena shook her head and looked a bit worried* I dont think Anotsu is feeling well but maybe he's still ajusting to being so social lately instead of skulking around in corners. *the worried look faded as her eyes started to glitter with mischief and amusement.* Im sure its just that. *Bob leaned against a hand and drank his coffee in silence. he was busy still trying to wake up and the coffee wasnt looking like it was going to work. He hoped Anotsu, his first medusa, was ok but thought no more on the matter and poured more coffee.* Kipestshin Thomas piled his plate high with breakfast and sat down. "not feeling well?" He shoveled a forkfull into his mouth and chewwed it over ... hnnn... yeah. *he didn't sound 100% sure* that is probably it. *a not so nice grin slid across his face* yeah, maybe he is just adjusting to being a social butterfly. kaliskanny Dym finished her plate and carried it to the sink, washing it. "Who are the new medusa, Thom?"
She glanced back at Helena curiously, before returning to washing her dish. Bob Dobbs *Helena helped Dym clean up and smiled at her before pouring some more tea for those who wanted some.* Dooma Aderlass laughed, "Well Dooma says her home is always open to me, I like her and all but I really love your owner's shop and the couch. I would almost prefer that she came and visited me here instead of me going to stay there and having to visit you all here." he smiled and wraped the tip of his tail around Viktor's. "Thank you ut I am really not that charming my dear friend, And you are avoiding my question pale god amoung Medusas. How are you today?" He smiled his voice soft and playful before he took a slow sip of the coco. Kipestshin Thomas:the new who wha? *he patted his very full stomach and let out a contented soft burp*~~~~~~~~~~~~ Viktor grinned. "perhapse more charming then you think. And i am well... thank you." He took another sip* Jus been hard at work doing 'behind the shop' things~oooOOOoooh *he wiggles his fingers pretending ot be scary* whee heart kaliskanny "Them," Dym motioned to Helena and Anotsu. She looked at Thom. sitting back down beside him. "I miss too much, sometimes." Kipestshin Thomas: oh, *he stood up to make introductions* Dym, this is Helena, Helena, Dym. ... That fellow over there is Spark- er.. i mean Anotsu. kaliskanny "Hello," Dym nodded to them, leaning back in her seat. She looked at Thom, "Kali took oneof my blankets..." Bob Dobbs *Helena greeted Dym and smiled cheerfully. She liked meeting new people and this Medusa looked kind. Maybe she would get a chance to talk further and she looked forward to that. Anotsu turned his sightless eyes to the one greeting him and said nothing. He couldnt think of what he could say that hadnt already been said. Besides, he wanted to just be out of the way for the moment and think. He had a lot on his mind. Bob refilled his coffee cup yet a third time and sipped at it. His addiction to caffiene apparent.* Kipestshin Thomas helpped himself to some of the tea Helena had made. "took your blanket? ... teach her a lesson, take hers. and her pillows to boot" XP kaliskanny [yeah...just made me laugh. she's just sleepy right now...and thom made her food. so, she's beign nice at the moment.] "I will once I'm home again...she took one of the blankets I keep here in my igloo," Dym motioned to the big fleece igloo. "Least she didn't take my pillow."Bob Dobbs *Taking a pan, Helena decided to add to the breakfast by making some pancakes to go along with the hash browns.* Kipestshin Kip walked in before Thomas had a chance to continue. "Thomas, i need to see you in my office." She looked at Anotsu, then turned and left. It didn't sound too bad... one could hope. Thomas: 'suse me Dym. *he took his plate with him, nodding to Helena* Helena. ... *he didn't say anything to the quite medusa... he figured he would just be ignored anyway.*kaliskanny Dym waved to Thom as he walked off, "Don't let her give you hell." Bob Dobbs (Hope you feel better hon) *Helena waved as Thomas left and continued to finish making the pancakes* Bob Dobbs *Bob finished his coffee and waited until Helena finished the pancakes. he helped her put the food that was left lying out into the fridge so it would not spoil and washed the rest of the dishes. They prepared to go home as Bob needed to do a few things. Anotsu followed them quietly into the car and refused to answer any of Bob's inquiries. Despite his not coming home at all last night Bob comtinued to worry about his dark friend. Maybe familiar surroundings would help him feel more at ease. Bob started the car and drove back toward their house wondering what he could do to make Anotsu feel better.*

Owners Notes Helena learned about a Human holiday, Valentines day. Though it seems strange to me that she had not known during her interactions with previous humans, she seemed interested in making everyone a card. She is in the other room making them as I write this. I find myself so intriqued with her travels when she was with the carny. It seems sad that they disbanded however if they had not I would not have had the pleasure of owning her. Still, I know it must have been very hard for her to go from traveling with a carny to living with me. I Hope it isn't too boring for her but she doesnt seem to complain if that counts. Now what my main concern is today is Anotsu. I am not familiar with the illnesses a Medusa could get in their lifetime but it is hard to ignore some signs that he is not well. Some days he will not eat at all and at other times he cannot get enough of eating. I wonder if this has anything to do with his crush on Viktor. It still does not make sense to me as their personalities differ like night and day. However I realize you cannot always pick and choose who you fall for. I am suspicious that they may have had a fight. It could explain why Anotsu has been acting more like he did when I first saw him at the shelter. This regression worries me and I am doing all I can to make him as happy as possible. If he no longer wishes to travel with us to the shop I will not force him. I just hope that he gets better soon. I dislike seeing someone I value under the weather like this. [/end journal transcribe]

Unexpected guest While Helena and I were preparing dinner we had a very special visitor. Viktor stopped by with a lovely fruit basket and we invited him to join us. It was so nice to have a visitor from the shop and we used the mango to make some delicious salsa. We played a bunch of games and watched movies with some popcorn. Anotsu had been drinking as he seemed very unhappy with the fact that Viktor was even there. I can only assume his crush is making him unhappy and that is the source if his illness. I am not sure if he thinks seeing Viktor is a good thing, Anotsu has difficulty with expressing his opinion most of the time. It is a little annoying having to keep guessing how he is feeling but I must remind myself to have patience with him. I look forward to the day where he is as open as Helena is or at least somewhat close to that anyway. I do not know if it was the right thing to do, pushing Anotsu to have contact with Viktor. At one point I made a nice warm bath for Anotsu and Viktor joined in with him. I left them alone to have my evening cigarette thinking they could talk. I believe that if Viktor keeps at him he could get Anotsu to open up. When I checked in on them afterward they had both fallen asleep wrapped in eachothers arms amidst my stolen bedding. They looked so lovely bathed in the moons light I couldnt bear the though of waking them. Will there be a day where Anotsu will be able to show Viktor the beautiful medusa I know him to be without the mask? I am tired as I write this so I really must head off to bed myself. Viktor threatened to cook breakfast. Mental note: Buy more blankets. [/end journal transcribe]

 Viktor stopped by Bob's house and dropped off a strange gift outside. He thought Anotsu would enjoy such things, and being valentine's day... well, he just enjoyed the idea of giving a gift. A bonzai tree seemed to be something enjoyable, and fortune cookies too... though maybe he had confused his asian cultures just a weeeee bit XP. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  Viktor then set down a gift for Helena. Thomas had asked him to drop it off when he took Anotsu's. He hoped she would like the leather bound art book and some pencils.

Valentines Day We found some Valentines gifts for Anotsu and Helena on our porch. They were from Viktor and Thomas. Helena squeaked with joy when she saw what her "brother" had gotten for her. She immediately started sketching a portrait of him as a return gift. So far it looks so beautiful despite the rather aggressive pose she had chosen to put him in. What she has so far is wonderful, Ive always liked unfinished art better for some reason. I feel it had a lot more life in it that a cleaned up finished product. It just seemed devoid of life at that point, like the bare steel pillars of a grey lit by flurescent office building. Anotsu recieved a gorgeus Bonzai plant and some fortune cookies. He took them into his room however I am certain I saw a hint of a smile there. Perhaps he is starting to come around. I plant to call the shop and ask Kip if she minds me inviting them to dinner. The company would we more than welcome and as far as I am concerned, these are good friends of ours. [/end journal transcribe]

Crush a cup of wine! Thomas and Viktor came to dinner and we rolled out the proverbial red carpet for them. Helena helped with the Daikon radish and grating the orange peel. I made the angel hair spagetti and the haddack. In the end I put the orange peel and the rest of the mango salsa on it. Thomas helped with drinking a bottle or two of our wine. whee It didnt turn out all that bad, I thought it rather tasty myself. Viktor and Anotsu were upstairs, I can only assume Anotsu wanted to show his appreciation for the Valentines day gift. when we saw Anotsu finally come down for their food he looks a bit disheveled and adorably rumpled. I could not hold my laughter in at all when he left. The back of his head. . . .his hair. . .oh my gosh. . . .I have never seen hair stick out like that before. Poor Anotsu, I shouldnt really be laughing but that was the worst case of "bedhead" I have ever seen. I am glad however that Viktor is helping get all that. . . .tension. . . out of him. . . *stifles laugh* [/end journal transcribe]

Snowfall Right now I watch Anotsu outside while he trains with a sword. A soft hush of the snowfall is the only thing I can hear. The sun is beginning to set and everything looks pristine and beautiful. Despite my cautioning him against it he is intent on teaching himself how to fight while blind. Despite his great skill it was all lost to him when he lost his eyes. I do not think he is in the condition to be doing all of this activity. I believe he is carrying and I believe he is pushing himself too hard. I find his reactions to the new life that is forthcoming very strange. he acts as if there is nothing wrong at all or he glares at me. On asking him how he feels about being a father he gives an answer that has nothing to do with the question. I sense a lot of hatred from him at his thickening waistline and I get cold flashes so for the sake of peace I have neglected to ask him how he feels. I have been slipping extra vitemans in his food so at least I know the young one is developing properly or at least I hope. There is no guide or manual on the internet about how to take care of pissy pregnant medusa who are very good with waving blades around so I might have to speak to Kipestshin soon. I havent even the foggiest how long they carry in the first place. So I watch Anotsu training himself with his sword, feeling as if I can't be the one to help him.

Anotsu Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf A gold & blue dragon medusa leaned lightly against the shop door as she landed before venturing inside. Her wings were tired from trying to carry her weight from the flight, but she could hardly have wanted to slither through the slightly boggy ground where the snows were melting around her home could she? Not when she had wings at her disposal. Patting her blue hair into place, Nimlaurë entered the shop.
It had been a while since she had dared to venture from her suite, much less her home. It was good to be out. The aura of love & romance & coming family in her new family had become almost palpable. Even to the coldly aloof Nimlaurë. She had no such designs.
Or perhaps she did, deep in her heart. Not that she would let anyone see, nor admit such a thing. Which more could be why she felt the need to leave today. Bob Dobbs Helena is fine, I think she needed to rest. She's been so busy taking care of things. *He kept it light and general, Still under the impression Nim had a rank. He considered Helena family despite having no relation in common but he was glad he could depend on her. He could not image not having her around as if she were his real little sister. He drank the last of his drink and set it in front of him where he knew the table would be. Bob came out with some tea for Nim and again, sat down in his seat. He was still worried about Anotsu being sick but hadn't the first clue to Medusa sickness's and this place had lot of books and other information on Medusa in depth.* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf Whether or not she had once come from rank no longer mattered. Not that she would tell anyone. However she had been brought up 'proper' and quite enjoyed the practiced graces she had learned. As much as she enjoyed anything. More than that, it gave the golden dragon female something to cling to when all else failed her. "Oh? Is there much Helena must take care of?"
She smiled at Anotsu, still not realizing he was blind, and gracefully accepted the cup of tea from the human when he handed it to her. There was a flicker in her violet eyes as Nimlaurë realized that she did not know the human's name. Trelweny treated her as an equal -not a servant nor a pet. Part of the family or perhaps a sister, but never beneath her. Nimlaurë did not wish to treat others that way either. But she did not quite feel comfortable yet with humans enough to ask for his name so simply said. "Thank you. Tea is perfect." Bob Dobbs *Bob answered after a few minutes of silence.* Helena is excited about a new addition to the house. With all the pets I seem to be getting I could really use the room. She helps me take care of them. . . . .and us. *He smiles and glances to the side a minute.* I hope we arent too much for her, I'd rather she not get sick as well. *Anotsu rises and slowly makes his way to the bathroom, touching the wall every so often so he wouldnt stumble over anything. Bob pours Nim a little more tea and while he is up retrieves Anotsu another mug of it as well. While in the kitchen he opened up a vitemin and sprinkled it in his tea. Despite Anotsu's refusal to take them he knew that it would help speed his recovery. Anotsu had been so tired lately and Bob was concerned he was not eating well enough. Perhaps these would make up for it. He came out of the kitchen with the drinks and smiled politely at Nim. He set down the Tea's and leaned back into the couch.* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf She canted her head to listen to Bob's explanation. Although Nimlaurë was tempted to coment on how her family was quite large as well, & perhaps even that she could do more to help out around the home one thing in particular that was said caught her attention. She waited until Bob returned with the teas. "Sick as well? Who else is ill?"
Then her gaze followed where Anotsu had gone with a cotemplative look about them. "Anotsu?" Bob Dobbs Well my house is in a rather wooded area so maybe we all are a bit under the weather. I have a sore throat so I don't want to pass it to Helena.*Fakes a rough sounding cough knowing Anotsu would kill him if he were more specific. Bob had no idea where all this pride came from but Anotsu tended to have his little quirks and Bob just wanted him to be at ease. Even if the quirks were about silly little details about his condition. Bob didnt think being sick was anything to be ashamed about. So much so he would do whatever he could to help. He knew 'Notsu had a terrible experience so he tried to be just a little extra accomodating. He was no psychiatrist but he tried his best to listen. As his very first Medusa he cared quite a bit for Anotsu.* Trelweny RosePhoenixWolf A finely shaped brow arched slightly at the cough. It was not her place to pry... she was only concerned. "Perhaps you could use some tea too." She motioned for him to stay seated as she rose and headed for the kitchen. "My home is surrounded by woods, and it can get quite cold there. My quarters are plenty warm for me, however. Perhaps why I leave them so infrequently."
Her usually moderate volume of speaking rose a bit as she continued speaking while in the kitchen & automatically lowered to normal as she returned. "The others do not seem to mind the cold as I do, but are very accommodating to my preferences."
Those she had met at least. Nimlaurë knew that was only a fraction of the household. Still, none had voiced a complaint that she was given special treatment or anything of the like & so she decided to judge them on that. With a courtly smile she handed the tea to the human. "I do not know if Anotsu or Helena have mentioned me. I am Nimlaurë." [/
