*Than was a little nervous about both of the kids getting ready to lunge eachother's neck* ^^; Eheh...... Hai, I think it would be much better if you two tried together.
*Aside from that conversation, there would be a short one between Sho and Slayer*
Slayer: >> Sho, you look like you're about to hide under the table. Is something wrong?
Sho: Oh ._. no... not at all...... nothing to be afraid of in such a way.... eheh...... *Sho was just prepared for the worst if the two kids went at one another's neck*
*Than and Mastema would just wait and watch Trilla and Eecheb give the candle their shot*

*Both continued to stare at eachother, though now they were standing up on their chairs so that they would have a fair chance to blow out the candle, and be able to see their names written on top of it. Eecheb seemed to be really into this for some reason, the only way you could tell though was because his tail had appeared again, and it was twitching back and forth, in anticipation. Healthy amounts of competition were one thing, but what Eecheb and Trilla had... well it wasn't certain if it was a healthy amount or what. The two would also go so far as to puff up their wings a bit, like two animals squaring off over something. After a near two minutes of staring and squaring off, the stalemate would be broken as they both tried for the candle. Between the two there was enough hot air to snuff the flame. They had been successful*

Sho: *In watching the two, Sho's foot started to move to the side a bit and his arms tensed up. Screw hiding under the table, he would make a bolt for the door*
Slayer: *Shortly after, Slayer grabbed Sho's arm. All he could do was chuckle at Sho's fear of a sibling rivalry between two children* Oh calm down Sho. They're just competitive is all
Sho: ._.Yah.... and it's about to blow us all away.....
*Mastema's attention was on the two in action. The way they prepped themselves was interesting to him. They were being so competitive that they actually mirrored eachother's movements and actions, so much so that they simultaneously blew out the candle. Mastema would just offer a satisfactory grin as the candle was blown out*
Than: *The rivalry was more amusing than anything, and he also thought it was a good one. Still, despite their competition, he knew that Trilla cared for Eecheb, as evident by her hugging him for a minute straight just a few hours ago. He wasn't sure whether Eecheb felt the same way, but he was very doubtful that Eecheb really wished harm against his sister. When the candle was blown out, Than would have clapped, but he was incapable of doing even that as he was* ^^ Hnn...
Sho: *clapping lightly, along with Slayer* Am I still here? ._.

*Slayer was right, they were just children afterall. So they were a slight bit competitive, at least it wasn't like that all the time. Oh no, sometimes they'd just get into a mass of feathers and fists as they brawled. Again, luckily that was not the case today. The only main difference between the two of course was that Trilla didn't have a tail to twitch. Their task completed, the children would sit back down in their seats, where they would continue to eye one another from across the table. Both of course seemed slightly confused when the clapping started. Why clap over a candle going out? They didn't really know the meaning of it, but at least the confusion broke the glares. Nana like Slayer and Sho would clap lightly*
Eecheb & Trilla: .___. | ?

*Than sighed contently. Aside from the anamolies that were happening with his eyesight, the day had been a joyful one to him, and he was glad he had not been absent from the citadel for it* ^^ Hmm... well then..... who should cut the cake?
*Mastema would turn to Sho, suggesting that he be the one to do it. He had a feeling Nana wouldn't want the children to use a knife on something that was hard enough to cut just using a knife cautiously* Sho.... you are skilled with a blade in any form.... Would you like to do the honor for us?
Sho: >> << Hmm? What?..... Oh... uh..... if you want me to ^_^; eheh. *Sho was a little embarassed to be caught preoccupied with other thoughts* ^^;

*With Sho's ability with his sword, let alone any other type of blade, he was the perfect choice. There were eight people around the table in total, that meant the circular cake would be able to be divided evenly. Everyone would get a nicely sized slice, again there was a second cake on standby if seconds were requested. Plates and the appropriate utensils were already set up for everyone to use. Sho was still likely to try to eat his cake with his chopsticks*
^_^
That would be a wonderful idea.

Sho: All right then ^^ *Sho seemed happy to finally be of use* Well I left my sword at home since I didn't think I'd need it. So I'll just go get it and be back in a minute flat
Than: Anno..... Ojisan....
Sho: >> Yeah? What's up?
Than:..... why don't you just use the cutting knife that's about 2 feet from you ._. *Thanatos would point to the utensil laying beside the cake*
Sho: *Following Than's motion to the knife, Sho's eyes lit up* o__o Bro, your kid's a freakin' genius.... *Sho would stand up and take the knife*
Than: Eheh ^^;; A-arigatou..... I guess.....
*Mastema almost felt like renouncing the fact that he and Sho were brothers right then and there, but there was no need for that anyway* stare
Sho: All right.... 8 people? Everyone just watch and learn........ or just watch... which ever's your fancy ^^; *Sho would rest the knife on the edge of the cake and stare intently at it* =_= huzzah! *In the course of about one second, the cake would be split ever so close to perfectly in equal sized pieces, each 1/8 the size of the original piece. It would indeed be something to see, and would probably remind Eecheb of Sho's demonstration on the street lamp* ~.~ desert is served~ *placing the knife back down, one might notice that there was no visible residue of the cake on it*

*Sho was like the Axl of the citadel, in his own ways. One would assume with a veritable Axl of their own, the citadel didn't need the real thing. Nana would chuckle weakly for a moment, catching a slight glimps of Mastema's face after Sho had spoke. A light clap would be heard after all the pieces were cut up evenly. Now all that needed to happen, was to be served*
^_^
My my, you certainly are skilled Sho.
Eecheb & Trilla: o.o

Sho: ^^ Thank you...... I'd hope I could do a thing or two after a life time of practicing with a sword. *Sho would reseat himself and take a content huff*
Slayer: Was it your teacher who taught you all of your techniques, or are they self created?
Sho: A bit of both really. A great deal of "how" I train comes from my old teacher, but a lot of it has been evolved from what I learned myself while training. All the teachers in the world couldn't do a thing with me if I didn't adapt to my own capabilities.
Slayer: I see. Of course...... I understand completely. I've taught a few people here and there......
*Mastema would make an interjection at that point, to add to Sho's explanation* Of course, the Rekkuzan technique is an exception...
Sho: *He nodded* Hai..... the Rekkuzan is a family technique that's been handed down to anyone who used a sword.... or took up fighting really. The premise to the technique is so fundamental that any weapon can use it in different forms.... and I've also created my own variations of it of course ^_~
*Mastema chuckled* Indeed. *That might be something interesting to everyone else at the table. The Rekkuzan technique which Sho used as his trademark was a technique which had been passed down through Sho and Mastema's family. Perhaps it might inspire one of the children to learn the basics of this technique at some point* Now then, if there are no objections, I shall serve our cake. *Of course, Mastema wasn't going to get up and pass a piece to every person; he would perform much more efficiently. Raising his middle and index fingers, each plate on the table would levitate and move towards the cake in the center of them all. Once they were all there, one piece of the cake would be centered on a plate, before each plate with its piece floated back to its respective person. The actual use of telekinesis itself wasn't so much impressive as the fact that it had all been done seemlessly in unison, 8 plates and 8 pieces of cake all individually being acted upon with expert grace*
Sho: Show off xp

*The Rekkuzan? That was just another thing Nana could ask Mastema about at a later time. It seemed somewhat interesting and could be used with different weapons? It was quite possible one or more of the children would learn said technique over time to preserve it's history, as it was something handed down through the family afterall. Show off or not, Mastema was excellent at his telepathy and no one could say otherwise*
^_^
Ah, thank you.
*The children would look at the different layers present in the ice cream cake, from the gel icing on top, to the icream itself, and the chocolately bits and fudge near the bottom, with the chocolate ice cream base. Such a thing they had never tried before, and it had many different colors aswell as texture. This would be a food to remember for certain, there was no doubt about that*

Slayer: I see someone hasn't lost track of his mind in all this time either *Slayer chuckled, obviously addressing Mastema. As there had been ample time, Mastema hadn't let his telepathy and telekinesis slip*
Sho: Fine fine xp I give it to ya.... that was pretty sweet.
*Mastema just grinned at the compliments* Once a master always a master.... at least with some honing and refinement
Than: I haven't got anything against that sweatdrop Well then ^^ Let's eat! *Than cheerfully proclaimed. With that, he would take up his fork and start dividing his piece into more edible pieces. Slayer and Mastema would do the same. Sho would be heard breaking his chopsticks apart and beginning to find rather quickly that eating this frozen treat with chopsticks would be his biggest challenge in a while*
Sho: Hnn..... ._.

Eecheb: =__= | That's why forks are better.
*The comment was a bit smug, and was directed directly as Sho, opposite to Eecheb on the other side of the table. It was obvious Sho was having some problems so Eecheb would only rub it in, how other utensils were superior, at least in this case. Micha would have picked up his fork silently and started digging away at the tip of his cake. Much the same, Trilla had by now picked up her fork, and would try to work a piece off of the frozen cake, it was a bit hard so she was having slight difficulty. Eecheb would poke at the gel on the top of his piece, it looked odd. Nana would start at the back of the cake, where it was likely more soft*
Micha: . . .
Trilla: T__T

*Of to the side, Than was chuckling at the comment made by Eecheb. It sounded morel ike Eecheb was the one trying to get a message across this time*
Sho: Where there's a will, there's a way. And you can bet I'm gonna find it... Hmm... *Sho would pinch part of the cake between his chopsticks, and with a bit of effort, he managed to break away a small portion of the cake and bring it to his mouth* Ha! And there you have the way ^^ chopsticks one cake zero. whee *At this point, it seemed that Sho would get along better with Trilla than the other two*
Slayer: Persistent if anything.....
*Mastema would casually eat his piece without comment*

*If Sho continued to just pinch away, it would take him quite a while to eat his piece of cake. In fact by the time he was little under half way through, it would probably be a melty mess. As for Sho and Trilla's getting along with one another, that would probably be attributed to the level of fun and energy both had and could produce. It was likely they'd have some fun times ahead, and some point perhaps even trainging. It was a wonde how Trilla might handle chopsticks, if ever she visited Sho. Likely it would end up being very messy, but in getting to that point possibly cute, or scary depending on Sho's personal views. With a bit of effort Trilla would chizzle a piece of cake away from the main body and would finally get to eat it. It would appear that the cake would agree with the children, it was sweet and enjoyable and melted in the mouth. The day was becoming more possitive as time went along*

*Most of the next few minutes would be spent eating. Surprisingly, Sho seemed to be eating away quite well at his cake. After the initial piece, he'd started taking off pieces that were similar in size to that he'd have taken with a fork. Once again, Sho was just proving his proficiency at using an unorthodox tool. Than and Slayer were obviously enjoying themselves. Mastema seemed to be content, but of course he couldn't even taste the cake itself. Taste was one of the senses, like pain, that he seemed to not experience. For one reason or another Mastema lacked as many methods of perception as he seemed to have gained. Regardless, the event was enjoyable if not relaxing to him*
