Child At Heart, Monster By Nature (A Shape Shifting RP)

(I get that way too.)
Amaryllis shied a little and nodded as her gaze fell to the floor. She had no intention of upsetting Ryker, yet that had been exactly what she did. Quietly she walked over to the bed and tenderly laid Anuerin's wing across the matteress to keep them from falling over the side of them bed to the floor. He moaned in pain, but relaxed as he quickly fell to sleep.
(This girl needs to get a backbone. I thought she found one, where did it go? :hmm I liked her standing up to Ryker. )
Ryker drew in a quiet breath and watched Anuerin slip into unconscious. "The rest will do him best. Then get some food in him. He'll need fuel to aid in his healing. " He thought aloud. He shifted his gaze to Amaryllis to ensure she'd heard him.
 
Eirik smiled pleasantly at Saskia's reassurances. Thank heavens she favored him.

" How do you suggest we gain his loyalty then? He is arrogant and self-serving." Madison grumbled as she looked to the two sharing a moment.
Saskia pondered that for a minute. "Honestly I do not know. Best guess threaten him, or someone he cares for. And don't Sulk Madison I offered to share him with you." She said playfully as she slapped Eirik on the but with a grin and wink.
 
"Oh I have seen them—Maybe not the particular ones you speak of, but similar. Real pretty little things, if I do say so myself," Samantha said, grinning widely. A scuff of a chair drew her attention briefly to the only other people present. Nick and Ryker's little fish.

Alexis clasped her hands together. She hoped Lyra wasn't just offering to be polite; she really would prefer to stay here, tonight at least. "Thank you, so very much," she said, smiling happily.

Zaine rolled his eyes but smiled slightly. The exuberance with which some people spoke, like Alexis now, he just didn't get, but to each his own.

Ellie shuddered a little bit thinking about the last time Alastor had needed to take her blood. "They really aren't small either. I hate needles already and they made them even worse for me now." She said with a shake of her head. She noticed Nick got up from the other table and she waved to him shyly.

Lyra returned her smile and nodded. "Of course, in truth it will be kind of nice to have the company. I am tempted to offer it to you too Zaine but I think that might be overstepping my bounds, even if it is just a sleep over." She said with a smile to both of them. These two were complete opposites yet somehow they were friends it seemed, what a strange place they lived in.
 
"No, Leverett, no. I'm not worth it. I'm not." Nova said quietly, settling beside him as he settled down. "You are too good to leave this world like that." She said then sighed and closed her eyes. "I don't know why you care so much about me."
Leverett sighed softly and rested his head close to Nova's. "You're worth everything good and you don't know why I care so much about you because I've hidden it from you. in the orchestra of this life, I've played second fiddle to another. The one who has held your heart and good esteem, while you've secretly held mine. The friend zone is nowhere to thrive, you just exist there. In limbo.....waiting.....watching. and pretending it doesn't matter that you face lights up whenever he comes around. But if that was the only way I could have you in my life, I was content to let it be and accept it." He whispered with broken words.

Nova drew sharp breath and raised her head to look at him, hurt in her eyes at his words. "I have hurt you too much, how can you still care after so much pain? I'm sorry, I'm so sorry" She started to cry, laying down again. He was something else, to go through so much silently.
 
Lucy moved a piece diagonally, from one dark square to another, then looked up at him as she awaited his move. "You do know how to play, right?" She asked, grinning.
Victor played it off...but he had no clue. He replied in the fake-est voice of assurance possible "Of course I do. Who doesn't know how to play checkers?" He moved a piece diagonally like she had.
 
William smiled and held her comfortingly, she could call him whatever and he wouldn't really care. "Good" Was all he said, whispering it into her ear quietly.
Leah leaned against him, enjoying the drastic step she had allowed herself to take by pursuing William. She looked up at his face with a shy smile, happy for the moment which seemed perfect- until the wind blew her hair up into his face. Of course.

Ryker drew in a quiet breath and watched Anuerin slip into unconscious. "The rest will do him best. Then get some food in him. He'll need fuel to aid in his healing. " He thought aloud. He shifted his gaze to Amaryllis to ensure she'd heard him.
(She has her moments when she's brave enough to speak up, this wasn't one of them ;) )
"I will, I'll take good care of him." She vowed earnestly. She smiled softly to him before turning away to watch Anuerin.
