Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Uhh," Damnit! The sissy like blush appeared involuntarily as Darius scratched behind one horn and looked away some again. Not to hide eyes but to hide his face even though he was sure everyone saw it. "Heh, like i said no problem. Sorry I can't help you fix them though, it's not my specialty." He noticed that Cymarron seemed to be having some trouble and decided it was best for him not to be here either. With a small nod to Cymarron and Aurahkah he backed away from them, "I've got to check something." Or rather put myself in check. "I'll see you guys later." He went invisible and ran down the hallway back to his room. On his way he passed by a woman who seemed lost, but simply ran by leaving a trail of his scent in the air from where he came from.

Having coaxed Johnavon to actually step out of the vehicle, the two of them stepped cautiously into the yard that they had visited briefly months ago. Slow going, Johnavon appeared to have increasing trouble with everything he did these days, and his current state in particular impeded him further. But even when Kira tried to help him walk, she would just push away her efforts and kept his slow hobble forward. It took a little while, but eventually they reached the gate and Kirastared in strange wonder at the phoenix carving before Johnavon careless pushed open the door and broke the complete image.

"I dont have the patience to gawk right now, Im sorry Kira." Dissapointment hung from that short sentece as he trudged into the door, Kira a couple steps in tow, completely silent. "Hello? Is anyone here?" He asked the air, same abrupt tone, put off with the world itself.

"Always the direct approach..."
"Whatever works."

"Oh, hi. Nice to be back, miss...."
"Aurahkah." He responded in place of Aurah herself, remember the name instantly. "She doesnt like to be called lady or miss either if I remember. Interesting to know that we were so easily remembered as well."
Kira flicked the back of Johnavon's ear and looked a bit angry at him. "Quit being rude. We are still guests here, if the invitation holds up at least."
But Johnavon was a bit lost staring at Aurahkah and didnt respond to the flick nor the words. The look in his eyes showed that he was reaching farther than simply a strange glance, reaching into surface thoughts themselves. "Something is distracting you. Normaly you're much more focused, and less... apprehensive."
"Johnavon! Shut up!" Kira shouted, covering his mouth and smiling nervously. "Sorry, he doesnt know when to stay out of things. Eh...hehe..." sweatdrop

He had heard Aura that time, and though that implied she was cooking something, and chose to follow right after her, never one to miss a meal. he was slightly disappointed when she didn't go to the kitchen, but out to the front. his eyes saw very easily in the dark, and his tail wrapped around a dagger at the two figures.

"Cymarron greets you as well."

He was as abrupt as the other male, not liking the smell of that one at all. the female however seemed pleasent enough. Johnovan and Kira. he was part of the pack, and now this territory was his to defend if needed, adn that instinct was quite apparent. only until Aura said something about an offer still standing did the tail leave teh dagger, and the claws resheath themselves.

"Eclipse is still here." Earned a laugh from Aura. "Not a rule per say, but good to see that you're good at adapting. I just find it undependable." Another laugh between sentences. "Grew up without the stuff, don't really need it except in my kitchen...and even then when the power goes out we don't' really need it." She didn't wander into the 'keep us safe' territory. Knowing Johnavon, he didn't want others in that type of business. Knowing Kira...she'd probably give up the facts later. A look went over to Cymarron. "Cymarron, this is Johnavon and Kira, old friends."

"You missed the story. Oh right, Johnavon was being anti-social." A smile and seemingly shake off of memories. "Yes, well. Ancient Egypt, go back about five thousand years ago and don't think too hard on it, or try to over analyze it." Her eyes watched after Johnavon a moment before returning back to Kira. "I see he's..." She wasn't sure of quite the word she wanted to use right there, "same as always?" A wave of dismissal. "So...any particular thing that brings you back here?"

[ Message temporarily off-line ]

the phrase 'pet cat' certainly got the wrong response. his tail lashed back around the dagger and drew it free, slininging it out to land in the van with a loud thunk. he snarled lightly, snapping his jaws shut at Johnovan.

"Cymarron is a packmate not a pet. Cymarron belongs to no one anymore."

He gave a friendly nod to Kira, and a glance to Aura, before moving to the kitchen and gorging himself on bloody raw meat and eggnog.
