Nova glanced at the television a couples times before getting distracted. He did not like shows that made him use his brain. Even though he was really smart, he would rather not use it. The vampire was strange that way. He continued to doodle random nothings on the paper before whining and standing up, looking around. Great, the short attention span just kicked in. He ran to the kitchen and sat on the ground there, beginning to draw foods. If he could not draw objects or animals, then food would just have to do! Nova burst out of the kitchen about five minutes later holding his drawing of apple pie. It did not look exactly like a pie, but it was way better than that 'hampster' he drew. He sat on the ground, leaning his back on the couch, and looked at Mitsuki. "Look!"

Mitsuki turned from his show and noticed the better draw apple pie. "Hey, that's pretty good." He looked up at the others, "Are you good at drawing pies? Or just food in general?" he asked as he noticed the sketch on the paper. When he thought about stuff, he didn't know much about the little vampire.

Nova shrugged. "I don't know...It was the first food I've ever drawn," he said and laughed nervously. "I worked with my father in the labs, so I never got the chance to draw food before. Then I never did it before because humans weren't important to me, and their food was useless." He scratched the back of his head and sighed. It was true. He did not care much for humans during the time he shut himself away. Nothing was important. Well, except for learning about the vampire race and trying to figure out if there was a way to become human and live normally. Oh well. Like that was important. He tilted his head slightly and looked at Mitsuki with a strange face. "What're you thinking about?" he asked. "You're making a face..."

He shook his head, "Nothing I just think too much sometimes." He stretched out his legs and sighed. The next episode was about to come on, "So Nova, about that lab....what did your father actually do?" he asked feeling rather curious about the other. He really wanted to know since he didn't have a change to ask the other about other things out his family. He knew the other had a girlfriend, mother had died and father was very pushy.

Nova shook his head and sighed. His father. Simple, he was a scientist. "Well, he worked in those labs, taking vampire blood from each clan and finding out which had what," he said, confusing himself. "Simply stated, he was a person who researched the vampire race." There, that made more sense. He crossed his arms and thought. "He wanted so badly to find a way to reverse the vampire DNA strand in a vampire's blood and make them human again. I supported him one hundred percent of the way because I wanted to be human." He paused to think. "I...I still want to be human. I'm tired of living for so long, watching friends die, having to hide away from the older ones in fear of them recognizing me." He brought his knees to his chest and sighed. "It's just...I'm just tired of it," he said and picked up his drawing to look at it.

Mitsuki looked at the other rather amazed that the other's father was doing something like that. "Wow....that amazing." He never really thought about vampires becoming human again. It would be amazing to see something like that happen. He frowned when he saw Nova hug his knees, he never knew the other wanted to be human so badly. He couldn't help but feel helpless to do anything. "well....if it helps any......you have me. You have Maya, you have the Zuskis." He added, hoping that cheered the other up a little.

"Maya and Mr. Ryo are vampires too. I bet they wanna be humans," he said. "Think of how many children Mr. Ryo and Mrs. Zuski had to watch grow old and die. Their own students dying before them," Nova mumbled. It was sad. But, since he had chosen Mitsuki, then his human would not die like others. Though, he would probably have to see most everyone else around him go away. No matter what someone did and no matter how much someone hated another person, they would always care for them somewhere in their heart. Just like Nova. He wanted to hate Mimi for being mean to him and for trying to take his beloved Mitsuki from him. The vampire looked at Mitsuki with a smile. "But, I'll wait as long as it takes for the vampire scientists to find something to reverse it," he said.

Armand's crimson eyes caught Icarus' blue eyes and he stared.
"Okay. A DVD player too? Or do I get the honour of picking one?"
He glanced at the machine his fingers were still on then sighed. These new things were beginning to strain his brain on the point of learning how to build and fix them. Seeing them progess was enough. He turned his eyes to the TV to his right then made a impressed sound. It did have a good picture he could give it that much. The price didn't matter - it was going to his father's accoutn in any case. This was becasue Armand wanted to spite him for taking his anger out of Icarus.
"Alright. Let's get it then. Where's someone who works here. . . ?" He looked around, spotting a lady in a red store vest. "Miss? Hello there."
The girl looked from Armand to Icarus with a slightly absorbed expression.
"Yes, how may I help?"
"I'd ike to purchase this TV set, and a Panasonic DVD player. Please and thank you."
The girl nodded, digging through her pockets for a pen and her receipt book. Armand watched her writing the items down, then turned back to Icarus with a very submissive 'anything else' smile. Of course he was just giving the blue eyed boy a chance to push him around for once, but if he wanted to take up his offer next time, that was open also.
::::::
Amerlie raised an eyebrow but smiled and nodded to herself.
"Okay then. Um, can you try to imagine this," She gave the picture in her hand a small shake. "As a bunch of oloured shapes. For example, don't think of them as trees. Think of them as tall, slightly deformed cuboids or rectangles with spheres on them. And paint exactly that."
She dipped her paintbrush into the green paint and painted a rectangle with a lightly sqeezed middle then stepped back for Neruhpial to see the picture and the painting.
"Doesn't matter the colour, but it's a tree trunk. Go ahead. Pick something and paint it as a shape."

"You can pick one if you want, I don't care."
Icarus blinked and looked at the TV that had made Armand whistle, he didn't understand why he had done that because he found nothin amazing about it. Why had the vampire sais that the price didn't matter? He would probably ask later...if he remebered. His gaze turned to the lady that Armand had called over. To Icarus, he would say that her expression was strange.
Watching the girl get something that looked to be a little notepad out and writing in it after grabbing a pen out of her pocket was something Icarus was doing but the his eyes
started to wonder to all the electronics on the aisle. He looked at the dark haired vampire after a moment when he realized the he was watching him. The smile caught him off guard, it seemed to be ask if there was anything else. Was there? He didn't know. Icarus shook his head then asked: "Surround sound?"==== Neruphial watched as Amerlie shook the paper and told him what to picture and how to picture it. He pictured it by staring at the paper. His eyes followed the tip of the girls paint brush as she drew a strangely shaped tree but then again it was more or less an outline.
"Okay...doesn't matter the colour?"
Slowly he took the brush that was in his hand and dipped it into the blue and sketched out a curved lined that came near the tree she had drawn then put another curved line on the other side of the first one making a little stream. "does that work?"((Sorry it took so long, I can only type with my left hand...))

Mitsuki looked at the other and smiled, "I know.....it must of been painful to see that." He sighed and stands up, it didn't hurt at all this time. He walked over to Nova's side and hugged him. "I'm sure there will be a away one day...until then..." he kissed the other on the lips and pulled back, "Lets not think of such sad things....." He suggested as he poked the other in the side. "I like seeing you happy."

Nova's eyes widened. What was Mitsuki doing walking around? Though, he did not look like he was in pain. He stood there in the human's embrace and sighed. It felt so nice to be held by someone. Plus, it was a human. They were so warm. He looked at Mitsuki and felt the other kiss him. Nodding, Nova giggled. "Yeah...And I like seeing you happy. You being angry is kinda...Scary," he said. "I don't know that side of you very well." He smiled and poked Mitsuki's forehead. "Don't you hurt at all? I mean, is it okay for me to poke you in the side?" he asked and tilted his head to the side like a confused dog. He wanted to play, but he did not want to hurt the human. And, he was unsure of how fast a 'feeding bag' could heal. Did they recover as quickly as a vampire?

Mitsuki smiled and nods, "Alright, I'll try not to be so scary anymore. I sometimes can't help it." He sighed and laided with Nova. He searched around his body and looked for any place that might have pain. When he found none, but on his back. "I'm fine to poke...just not on my back, I'm still a little bit sore." He smiled happily, "But that's okay, as long as you're happy. Just don't poke my back..."

(( That's okay. What happened? You sprained your hand? ))
Armand nodded, "Right you are!" then walked over to the speakers, trying to figure out which ones were the best to go with the TV. He didn't get far, having not paid too much attention to the last few years of technology. He looked over at Icarus with a very child-like lost stare. He loved the new machines and loved to fiddle with them, but when it came to being serious he had no clue what to do with them.
"Come on, you know more. A little help," instigated the vampire as he picked up a speaker the size of a small novel then peered at it as if it was a bomb, his bangs falling into his eyes.
As much as he didn't ask for help, there were some times when pride had to be sacrificed. At least a bit.
::::::
Amerlie nodded to conferm (sp?) his statement, looking at Neruphial with interest as he painted in a river. He sketched it out good enough. Amerlie swished around her brush in the water then mixed a bit of yellow and red into the brown on it's cover.
"Now we add some detail. You can mix a bit of yellow to a lot of blue to make it darker - just use a cover. You already drew a moon in, so that's where the light's coming from. We're gonna paint in the light lines."
As she spoke, she dragged the lighter brown tipped brush across the so-called brown leaves on the tree, making the side that was facing the moon lighter than the rest of it. She added some lcurved lines in to the middle as well, to show that there were leaves there.
"Looking a bit more realistic?" She asked hopefully, her focus on Neruphial's river.

((No, our dogs were fighting and I tried to break it up, note i'm obviously not very good at it, and I stuck my hand by their heads as I tried to seperate them. My brother was sitting in the chair watching until I got bitten then he got up.))
Shaking his head, Icarus watches as Armand went over to the speakers. Did the vampire even look at the TV to know what speakers would work? That was a good question. He laughed at Armands expression and walked over to him when he said a little help but, first he looked at the tag on the TV. Once he did that then he walked over to where Armand was.
Icarus looked at a few then stopped at a section on the shelf, there was a whole row of speakers that would go nicely with the TV.
"How about these?"==== Neruphial watched Amerlie paint in leaves and add a highlight to where the moon was facing it. He nodded at what she was saying and watched some more as she put a line down the middle of the tree. "Yes, it is."
The vampire mixed blue and yellow to make it darker, he then started to paint most of the river the darker blue, leaving some areas light for highlights on the water. Next the vampire washed off the brush and dipped it into the yellow and drew the reflection of the moon into the water.
"Hows that?"

Nova wrapped his arms around Mitsuki's neck and hugged him. "I understand that you cannot help yourself sometimes," he said. He grinned. "I'm like that about my boredum and hyperness." At least they had some minor things like that in common. The vampire giggled and poked Mitsuki in the stomach, having had permission, then it was okay, right? He began to walk around the living room, trying to burn off whatever pent up energy he had. What in the world was there to do? Walking around and waiting for Mitsuki to heal fully? What if his eyes turned red again? He would not be able to control himself. And, he really did not want to hurt Mitsuki in any way at all. Nova raised his hands above his head, clasp them together, and began to walk around, moving like a belly dancer. He had learned differen dances while traveling around. His father had to go to different labs for conferences with other scientists and field work, so Nova always got to tag along. And, he got to learn a lot of things from the natives of the different places they went. He stopped what he was doing and glanced at Mitsuki, his face pink. It was almost as if he had forgotten the human was there! He walked over to Mitsuki and took his hands in his own. "You should learn how to dance. That way we can dance like that together!" he exclaimed happily.
