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

Areum nodded, understanding. She eased a bit into him, replying "I don't like a lot of people...but you're different. I had fun today. Thanks." She dared to lay her head against his shoulder as he held her.

Rowan smiled, holding her gently and looking back to the yard and trees again. She was starting to trust him, this was good. "Yeah, a lot of people just 'feel' wrong" He agreed then shook his head

Aralyn snickered purposely for Priam to hear. She returned his intense gaze with her own, and allowed the silence build a wall between them.

Rowan smiled, holding her gently and looking back to the yard and trees again. She was starting to trust him, this was good. "Yeah, a lot of people just 'feel' wrong" He agreed then shook his head

Areum smiled, she now fully rested her head on his shoulder. She agreed "I guess you're right."

Priam wasn't one to give up, but he had dinner to get to, and an indefinite staring contest wasn't going to get him anywhere. He shook his head abruptly, breaking the gaze, and turned on his heel to leave. "See ya," he called over his shoulder as he began walking away.

"I haven't been able to do any official testing with the events.....but I aim to do some shortly. Hopefully some time tomorrow. " Ryker replied honestly.

Razeth hugged Laurel all the more. That simple statement ment the world to him. "I'm deeply touched by your trust. " He murmured softly as he nuzzled her neck tenderly.
<{●○~}>
"That you are and I like this new you. It's exciting and unpredictable at best. " Indigo replied with a dark purr.

Anuerin was tempted to comment that it would be better if Ryker tested his sister's health sooner rather than later, but he didn't want to start a fight between them.

Laurel lavished in his embrace, unmoving as she was afraid that the moment might end if she moved.

Cyra's face suddenly shadowed as she noticed the sketch of her brother crumpled and accidentally thrown in the trash. Taking it out, she gently flattened it before stashing it under her pillow.

Lucy shifted immediately after landing. She was trembling a bit, jolted by the landing and the heights. "Well," she finally managed, "that was fun. And terrifying. But fun, so thanks."

"Hm?" Atalanta looked up confusedly at the light touch. She had already shut off the previous subject completely from her mind so Claire's comment threw her for a moment. "Oh, yeah, thanks," she said quickly.
She followed after Claire as they went down the buffet, adding to her plate what she wanted, which at the end amounted to very little. She was a light eater and she saw no reason to take more than necessary.

(Reply later I just want a bump.)

Areum smiled, she now fully rested her head on his shoulder. She agreed "I guess you're right."

Rowan nodded, content with her settling so easily against him. He was glad she was being so easy for him to manipulate, he just wanted to have her tougher for others to manipulate her. This was becoming a personal test to himto mold her to what he wanted her to be later.

Alexis waved a finger at her eye as she rolled them both. "Directionally challenged, just a bit," she said, chuckling lightly.

Haley fiddled with her napkin, but kept her gaze steady on Dyrus as she listened intently to him. "I would have. I mean, I did come. Yes, hesitantly, but I came and I'm still here." Leaning forward in her seat, she discreetly reached across the table for his hand. "I'm sorry to make such a mess of this, but it's weird still, in my head, and I'm just trying to make sense of things."

Dimitri sighed dramatically and said, " Just one of the many things I adore about you, tabby cat. " He then took her hand she used a a visual aide to lead her to the proper way.
~°•~°•~°•~°•
Dyrus released the glass to take hold of Haley's offered one. "It's not just you making a mess of this. I've had my fair share in it too. I'm just not accustomed to experiencing such feelings. They're so foreign to me, I feel so ill equipped to sort them out. Hence the alcohol, a opt-out attempt for numb oblivion." He chuckled ironically and added as he looked up to meet her eyes, " Until the hangover set in. Then it was pure agony.....but then an angel visited me and saved me form myself. She even perched upon my lap to watch over me."

"Because it keeps me dependent on you?" Alexis asked, laughing lightly. She shook her head slowly as she allowed him to lead her, a fact she didn't mind at all.

Haley took another bite of her food before pushing the plate away. She listened with pleasure to him, her blush deepening as he continued. "Dyrus," she said, just loud enough for him to hear, "can we...?" She inclined her head towards the door. The dining room was noisy, plus she didn't want this conversation getting beyond their own ears.

Eliana stared at him in shock dumbfounded by his question. "YOU hate meeting like this? What like this is some sort of friendly run-in, hey how are you kind of thing. Stab, Stab, Stab, Poke, Poke, Poke, its tests and a cell, then more tests then evaluations. " Eliana gave an exasperated sigh as she deflated a little after her rant. "You people made me into this and then put me in an environment that is conducive to this kind of behavior what did you honestly expect?" She asked him now sincerely. Out of the two Ryker and Alastor she much preferred Alastor but still she was tired of this by now. She didn't know what she expected him to say, if he said anything at all.

*******

Layla hesitated a moment but then took his arm, she realized now that it was just who he was. He was not trying to say she was weak with all his gentlemanly behavior it was just him. He probably did this with everyone at least to all the women, it would probably be weird if he offered his arm to the men too. But hey maybe that is what floats his boat. She shook her head as her thoughts drifted into a weird place. She gave Leverett a smile as she looked over at him while they walked, she had thought of a great witty comeback to his teasing comment but wasn't sure how it would be received. She decided to try it out anyways. "But the view is so much better when your in front." She replied equally teasing, then she shook her head realizing it sounded a bit like she was coming on to him.

Adrian gave her a smile and a reached out for her hand. As much to comfort her as it was to comfort him. "I was the youngest of 8 in my family, four older brothers and three sisters. We were a very close family, I wanted to at least write to them after I came here. But I don't know maybe its better they think I am dead. As for your parents, it might have been a mistake to them, but its there lose our gain. You are an incredible woman Willow, and I am better for having known you regardless of what they think." He leaned in a gave her a hug, happy he met her today, and confused how he managed to miss her all this time.

(Her reply to Alastor made me laugh so hard. )

" You're confinement is of your own design. We can't trust you with basic freedoms, so you're treated like a high security inmate. " Alastor stated quietly. He sighed wearily and continued, "In fact, Razeth was very much like you, but even he's come around now. He has the freedoms that are denied you. Can't you meet us halfway Eliana and see these tests are for your own good? You have DNA rewriting your very genetic code. We must know if it's turning for the worst, before complications become life-threatening. Just as we needed to know your limits and challenge them."
¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?
Leverett was a bit surprised by her teasing statement, but also flattered. "Why, thank you......I think. " He said with a soft chuckle as he chanced a glance to Layla. "But I'll have to take your word for that." He replied with mild humor. He then marveled that everything she'd said about herself, she was nothing like that. At least, not that he could see. He'd only seen one flash of temper and it had been on his behalf.
?¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?
"Adrian, you say the sweetest things. I'm sorry you miss your family, but I'm glad you're her with me. I'm just that selfish, I'm afraid. " Willow informed him as he hid her face in the crooked neck. Ashamed of herself for saying such aloud.
