Welcome to Gaia! ::

Elias laughed as he lightly patted the head of the young Tyler, "I never said that I didn't like him, where did you get an idea like that?" Elias was a little amazed at the boy had just asked him.

Tyler looked at Mr. Lyus like he was stupid. "You like Mommy. Mr. Cynammon likes Mommy. Mr. Cynammon doesn' like you. And you don't like Mr. Cynammon. But you all love Mommy." He said it matter of factly as though in his mind it was a set fact. "I don't understand how you two can not like each other but love Mommy. Why make her choose?"

"Im already rich because of you." Another kiss given freely to the woman he cared for beyond anyone else, and Saradin relaced his head against her as she leaned into him for just a minute. But time rolls on and it was not long before he was forced to stir. Setting Aurah carefully to her feet, Saradin stood up and sighed at needing to leave her again. "I'll let you read again, I've my own study to do. Maybe we'll have more time to spend together later tonight. See you then." A strong hug followed and he breathed deep her very pressence, trying to draw upon it for the strength he needed to perservere. Then he smiled to her, and left the way hed come.

Elias turned to look at Sir Cymarron and gave him a questioning look. "I was not aware that Sir Cymarron didn't like me, but I do like him, just because he likes Lady Naliah like I do, doesn't mean I hate him." Elias smiled as he bent down to one knee. "No one is making your mommy choice between us, becuase she has s third option, young Sir Tyler, she can always choose you." Elias smiled as he touched him, with the tip of his fingers. "I only want Lady Naliah to be happy, because then so am I, that Tyler is love, not all that mushy stuff, you just want the other person to be happy even if you are alone." he said as he rose from the floor. "Alas, i have to get to bed, this old bones of mine are acking to rest Elias said as he made his towards his room. As he walked past Sir Cymarron, Elias looked at the noble creature with a look of utter sadness, Elias considered Sir Cymarron a wise and noble man, and was truly saddened that such a man hated Elias simply for his falling in love. It seemed that Elias was not as wise as he thought. Elias let out one more sigh rubbed at his temples and dissapeared into his room.

She wasn't stupid. Aura had known that he wasn't his usual self which meant something had happened in the brief time that he was off by himself. But, would she mention it? No. Because he didn't want her to, and it probably didn't help to. "Read...I think not. A book isn't going to help." She gathered both their glasses from the table and dropped one in the sink. The other she filled yet again with the red liquid, and then picked up her book, which she still cursed by the way. Aura stepped from the kitchen and crossed the great hall over to the area that Ecara and Cymarron occupied. "Sorry Cymarron, but I'm afraid I'll have to steal her away from you. Children can't be up too late...they'll get cranky...er." So saying she picked up the child with little protest from her.

Ecara only pouted the slightest then waved to both Tyler and Cymarron. "Night night Tyler, Cymarron." A smile to them both, one ear flopped back from unwanted caused pressure on her poor fangs.

Aura let the girl have her goodbyes before she nodded to both Tyler and Cymarron herself. "Yes, goodnight. Tyler, don't stay up to late." Sure it was not but an hour after dusk, but they could all use the extra sleep and quiet time. She adjusted Ecara, the glass, and the book all expertly in her arms once before walking off to her room. Shadow walking through her door, for lack of a hand to turn the knob she set Ecara on the bed, book on her desk, and glass of wine on her bedside table.

Eclipse gave a snort to her and wagged his tail as he took to licking at Ecara's ears as she sat by him on the edge of the bed. "So...are all four of us going to fit in this bed?"

Aura shrugged. "We'll figure it out."

((3am, brain dead. Night guys.))

Tyler watched Mr. Lyus leave and wondered about him. Then he looked at Miss Ara and waved to Cara. "Nighty night Cara. See you in the morning." He smiled at Miss Ara, "I won't." He made his way over to Mr. Cynammon and climbed into his lap. "Hey Mr. Cynammon?"



Nailah almost dropped the dagger when she saw it cutting into BAstet. She had never been an avid fighter and the fact she was fighting a friend didn't help much. She found herself flying through the air and hit the ground a moment later. That's new... She heard everything Bastet said and swallowed. From her spot on the ground she looked at her friend encased in a barrier of her own making. "I know..." she said slowly. "I know!" She shook her head and slowly stood. "Face everything I have avoided for so long. I already accepted what I am. It's the doubts that get to me. I can't help but wonder if I even know anymore." She decided to do as Bastet asked. "Do you really want to know Bastet? Fine, I'll tell you. You have so much love inside you, it makes you practically glow. You are happy and satisfied and you feel content. There are you happy? While we're at it, let's do Aura too, shall we? She's the same. Loved. Happy. Satisfied. You both have it as do your men! Is that what you want me to tell you? Or do you want to know how I feel too?"

"You accepted it once, but now it sounds like you are denying it again. That is what I hear from you." Bastet turned her head away as her friend, who was normally more open and optomistic than herself, spouted love with a bitter tone. Then she turned her face back, "You can resent us for our feelings, for the fact that we found happiness, and you lost yours. But that will only over time turn you bitter, and that is not you. If you ever want to feel those emotions for real, so that they come from you and not to you, then you can not run from them because it will take you farther away, not closer to." Her tone had calmed quite a bit from the anger she had spit out earlier, biting into her, "You can not have what you turn away Niah."
