She pat his back again. "Good, because I don't like it when you're sad." Giving him a little pout then, "Mostly because it makes me sad too. And no one wants to be sad, right?" Giving him a smile then, turning her head to the side so that she could hear his secret better, not that it was too hard to hear. And then a nod. "It's normal, we all have our moments when we break down."

"Nope. we'll just use paper."
A servant brought out a pile of piper, and Malik ripped one in half nad set both halves on the table.
"Lets see if you can do it. Don't be frustrated if you can't though. it can take time to learn."
The others got Onyx to pause, but not because of them. he felt impervious...immortal and beyond harm. he did, however, lick Zell's blood off his claws...before his attention turned toward Roarke.
he turned ever so slowly, though his tail whipped itself around like a sword, aiming to slice at Zell, and anything else in the way. Even then it had free will, it seems.
"And you. Is little Zell right? You think I am unworthy to contest your precious little puppies?"
A snarl at that one.
"I can handle all your pups. and I can break them as a pack or as individuals. how dare YOU presume to tell anyone they aren't worthy of anything? The one who never uses his powers, almost cowers away from his own birthright, to tell me that I am unworthy?"
Yeah, probably a bad choice of words on thier part. which only fed into the anger and hatred that was driving Onyx further down a dark road.
"Should I prove my worth to them, perhaps, by besting thier teacher? Do you want to test the might of your magic to the the might of my darkness?"
Or at least that's how he put it. He really didn't like knowing, deep down, that the energy he used was demonic in nature...he prefered to simply refer to is as 'dark', as opposed to shamanistic 'light'

He reached up and patted her cheek then tucked a piece of her hair behind her ear as he had often witnessed his father do for his mother when she had her rare moods. "Don't be sad Miss Piper. You're too pretty not to smile." He grinned at her then, showing that lopsided grin that he had inherited from his father, all traces of tears gone. "I'm not sad anymore so you can't be either. 'Kay?"

"For the love of peat, is that what this is about? You really think I care whether you or my pupils are stronger?" The smoke between his hands stretched and hardend into a spear of cold steel.
"I put such a restriction on my 'puppies' because fighting an ally brings you no gain. Hate, resentment, rebellion, anger. I do not need these things in my class room. Zell has honoured my wishes, and has learned self restraint, and control."
"Something you are lacking right now." He said nothing about the insults aimed at him. He felt no need to point out that he had no conflicts to run from.
"Last chance Onyx. Do you really want to become the monster that you so loath?"

Well that smoothed over that upset look quite easily and he turned his attention back to the table where a pile of paper was brought and plopped on the table. Malikhai leaned back against his father as he watched him rip a sheet of paper and then set them down. A look back to him with that unsure gesture.
And then back to the paper as he leaned forward, holding onto the edge of the table as he more or less studied the paper. Okay this couldn't be too hard, right? Right. So settling back in his father's lap, he brought his hands up in front of him and stared at his fingers, getting a little frown of concentration and biting his lip as he stared at his fingers.
....And nothing was happening. Not a thing. And he frowned at that. Yes, it would probably be something he'd throw a tantrum over, had his father told him not to be frustrated. "What's it supposed to feel like?" Maybe that would help.
Piper could only smile fondly and give a smile and a little shake of her head as he pat her cheek and tucked her hair behind her ear. "Well thank you, and that's good because I do love to smile." Giving him another little tickle to perk him up even more. "I'd say that's a right fine deal Zykariel." Pressing a kiss to his cheek then because he needed it. "And don't be upset about your magic okay? You'll learn to make it behave."

Zell panted as he glared, blood dripped from a corner of his mouth as he stood up with his hands at his sides. He nocked the others hands off of his body. The others did nothing, Mik looked hurt. He took a deep breath.
"Raorke I'm sorry, I'm letting my hate and anger get the better of me, you've taught me better than this." He slowly unravled the scarves around his wrists, he had some mending he needed to do, before he went to train.
He glared at Onyx once more before turning on his heal and leaving. Mik hesitated for some time before he went after him. the others made to follow but Jude barked a strict order. they remained where they were standing.

"Zell is not my ally. he never was, and he never will be. and all I have seen from him is insult and derogatory comment for three years. he has no self restraint anymore than I do and you know it. the only thing that has stayed his hand from throwing his little blades at me was your vow, not his own self control."
that cold steel spear got his attention though. that he remembered. mother's void was contained in a ring of cold steel. How did Roarke knwo about the c***k in this particular armor? then his attention drew back to Zell, and licking his lips at the blood spilt.
"I am no monster. my anger, and my claws are justified. I did not go out of my way to find and insult another. I didn't prod and poke and pry while pracing about with this 'vow' to stay someone else from striking me by claiming I can't fight back."
A step closer to the little pack of dogs.
"I didn't pester to the point where the very presence of the other is enough to force the other to shower lest they get this tar like burning substance all over the place. I was not the instigator here. He was."
then Zell went off on his own.
"and there he goes. everyone is here now, and the master has his enemy at bay."
Then his attention back to Roarke.
"Then spouting his claims that he's is better, superior..and why? because you put the idea in his head that I am below him, unworthy of dirtying his hands with."
A snarl.
"And now you want to tell me I am wrong for wanting to show him how wrong he is. and to teach him that you can't always go into a lion's den and slap the lion, without recieving his claws?"
"It feels like...heat. warmth in the bottom of your tummy. you can feel it flowing in your veins, pumping through you with your blood. your power is yet dormant..here, let me see if I can bring it to life a little bit."
and he put his hand over and splayed his fingers on his son's chest, closing his eyes a bit and reahcing out with his power to touch the power lying in his son. like many surface breeds, he inherited his mother's slower 'maturity' on magic. so couldn't hurt to coax it to life a bit, right?

Yay for affection! He giggled again as she tickled him and squealed with laughter. Miss Piper made it sound like his magic was a naughty pet that kept eating the furniture. That picture just made him giggle. "Maybe if I put it in time out it will learn!" He shook his head adn clapped his hands then tilted his head. "Miss Piper? Did Daddy say when he wanted me home?"

After both he and sevilin sat down in the couches the younger elf waited a moment to watch the drow as he created a rune circle and with some strokes of his finger he activated a rune which was able to make Arthur's condition more bearable. "Thanks Sevilin." Was all he could say as he shifted in the couch he sat on to get more comfortable while he was preparing to talk to the drow, boy was this going to be really awkward.
"I should of known..." he muttered lightly, when living with someone for so long a person will get the feeling that they can tell the person anything that happens during their day so for Zahara whatever she might have done with Arthur she told Sevilin, but what did she tell him? "Alright I get it well...since she told you already what happened between me and her then I guess it's best for me to ask you questions." Though he had to pause for a moment, he wanted to know why she did it and then just suddenly left him there alone, bruised and not able to move that well out in the open where monsters can surely attack him. "Just why!? I want to know why because after what she did to me she just left me there in the Underdark without even a hint of trying to help until she sent her horse back to help me, she didn't even bother to show up in person" Well Arthur was frustrated with the whole situation, she just left him there alone after putting him through the weirdest experience in three years, and it kind of reminded him about Laudi a little bit too.

"Zell is your ally, not your enemy. You refuse to see that." Obviously. "Holding a vow is not so simply a feat as you like to think it is. It takes willpower, control." This fact to him was irrifutable. There was no point in arguing about it.
"You cannot justify your fangs and claws to his words. You have given as much as you took, Onyx."
"You are wrong. Your emotions may be correct, but the method you have chosen to execute your point is not. There are othe ways to assage your rage." He held up the spear. "Back down Onyx. As you yourself stated, i am not keen on using these natural weapons of mine."
Bode watched from behind the building, her eyes brimming with tears. Who was this mean Onyx? She didn't recognize him at all. She gave him the name Evil Onyx, and couldn't bring herself to go out into the open and face him.

Okay so it was supposed to feel warm. That made it a bit easier, though a look to his tummy as it was mentioned. So looking at his fingers wasn't going to do him any good? Though a smile as daddy offered up some help...because he was a tad prideful, earning that from his father, not really wanting to ask for help but wanting to do them all on his own. Unless it was offered in a particular way. Fickle child at times.
Okay then, let's concentrate some, but he still looked at his fingers, mostly because well that's the way daddy had did it and well he had always thought that magic heavily dealed with your hands anyway. So then, staring again as yes things stirred inside of him, that warm feeling indeed flaring up some, easily detectable to those who could detect it. But that warm feeling would only go but so far. He frowned. "I can't get it to my fingers..." That huffy not happy tone.
She gave a laugh as he brightened. Oh to be a child and let bad things slid off like water. "Maybe you should indeed try that. Nothing fixes bad behavior like time out, huh?" Both boys knew that lesson. Then she shook her head. "No, which means you can play here as long as you want. Though I'm sure he'll be along soon enough to get you. Miss him?"
He raised an eyebrow at the outburst, but that was all. "It's simple Arthur. Us drow call it an instinct period of the females of our kind...in basic terms, a need for her to breed. And any male will do. Her body basically gears up for sex. She can go longer, recover faster, and basically her body goes through measures to ensure that she gets pregnant. It's all about her and it's not about you, or about you and her. You're just reproduction fodder." He shrugged lightly, trying to come off as alright about it, even if he wasn't. "She ran, because she was ashamed of herself. She forgets that surface elves are fragile creatures, and well you're just not conditioned for that kind of treatment as others are. Next?"

Ori's head shot up as the wind shifted a little. Th toher pups caught it to as they looked around. Ori signaled that she would oook into it. She slwoly walked up to the small child who's tears she could smell on the wind. She bent down and with her ears in a non threatening she held out her arms to her and whined reasuringly.
Jude spoke up. "Onyx... we do not agree with Zell's actions... but he often bosted on how it was just to easy to wrile you up, and so thats whta he did.
In no way am i saying he is right, but in this case i believe you are both in the wrong."

Onyx's claws flexed, and he looked fully ready to try his luck with Roarke and his spear....then his ears swiveled...and his head lifted slightly. he knew that scent, as well as he knew Aella's or his own. which ment his head swiveled around, looking, seeking...until he found Bode's eyes. they were tearful, and afriad. and watching him.
That got his ears to twitch back some, and take a look at himself, and his hands. there wasn't any anger left. the rage evaporated as quickly as it had reached a boiling point. without Onyx's anger to fed it, the liquid dripped off him, still sizzling when it cam into contact with the ground. That was not a part of him he had wanted Aella, and much less Bode, to see. Aella may have at least understood why. Bode didn't even know that much.
He was supposed to be her protector, her guardian. and she was staring at him terrified and tearful. Roarke had called him a monster..just as the townspeople had before. and he'd vehnemently denied it then, but he might not be able to this time.
"I need a shower."
Malik grinned lightly.
"that's the secret. you know when you suck milk through a straw? you force all teh milk to go up, even though it's just in the straw. what you got to do is instead of trying to get it all to go up, you just push for it to go to your finger, like sucking it up through a straw."
then a muss of his hair.
"and don't be so upset if it doesn't work easy. It'll get easier, with time and practice."

He nodded happily thinking he might have finally found a way to stop his magical outbursts. That would be fun. He'd like to stop those silly things. He reached up and brushed his fingers under her collar again loving the sound it made when it jingled together like that. "I like this. It's pretty." Then a grin at her and he nodded. "A little bit. He gets lonely sometimes when I'm not there. I don't like it when he's lonely, he works too hard."

Well after blowing up at Sevilin and shouting his question that the drow all he could do was sit back and listen to his explanation about why she did it, and honestly he never expected an answer like that. "Well now that was unexpected..." So it was a period when drow females gear up for sex so they could get pregnant not matter what, they will take all the time they need and in the end they will able to get the one thing that their body geared up for them to do. Though the whole point about it being all about her was true too, when they were at it she was doing everything to a point until there were the time were he had to do some things for her; but basically she was the one in control and kept it that way for most of the time. Though when Sevilin told him why she ran off Arthur then mentally slapped himself for bursting out and getting all pissed off, after all Zahara has changed a lot since her past days. "Well I'm glad you're telling me this now..." And again he shifted in his seat, the elf was right about one thing this was getting to be a little uncomfortable but Sevilin came here to talk about it so he will sit it out. "Okay now that I know the reason why she did that to me then why have I never received this before in the past couple of years?" That was strange, after all they have been sleeping together for three years so should he have gone through it already?
