 Candi sat in silence for a long time watching the sun rise. For the first time in awhile, she truly smiled. She knew that it was time to put her past behind her and move on. It was the only way, the only things she could possibly do. She was over the sickness, over the depression, over the anger. She longed to be herself again. The fun loving, energetic, care-free Candi that she once knew. She knew she was inside of her somewhere, waiting to be unleashed.
In her silence, while she thought about how her life should be, she suddenly realized that she could not do it alone. She always had friends, it was what she lived for. She loved making friends, and she suddenly remembered that she was good at it. How she longed for a companion right now, to break the silence of day break.

 Blake had gotten up early for a morning walk. With Tabor home in the morning for once he could get out early and wander about. He hadn't a care in the world, but that was just who he was. He watched the sunrise as he headed towards it; though he's watched the moon rise he'd never seen the sun like this, it was nice. He found he'd stopped walking, then looked around, after being so lost in thought. Ahead of him was a familiar Namir, a good friend he'd not seen in awhile.
"Candi?" he called.

Candi heard her name and she turned around. She smiled as she saw a familiar face.
"Oh, Blake! Hey!" she called. She stood up to greet him, happy that she had someone to watch the sun rise with. She couldn't help but be so happy to see him. He reminded her of her younger days. Maybe because of his care free attitude, or maybe it was his looks. He was so...scruffy and...ragged. Some namrah might think he was scary, but she liked scary things. Halloween was her favorite holiday after all. She was in a surprisingly good mood after the long night, despite the fact that she couldn't remember any of it.

Blake smiled as he walked up, it was nice to see her again. And the best part was she was the same as the last time they'd met up.
"What're you doin' out here?" he asked, curious as to what most Namrah would be doing at this hour of the day. He didn't sleep much, so he was always up, and Tabor always got up earlier than this to go walking. But he didn't know much about Candi. Just that she liked spooky things and was kind of hyper.

She wasn't sure what to tell him. She had been there all night, thinking. She had lost track of the time so much that she stayed there until sunrise. She smiled and gave him a somewhat nervous laugh.
"You know...I think I was here all night. I didn't sleep at all!" She rubbed the back of her head with her paw. "Should I be tired?" She laughed again.
"Well, what about you Blake? What are you doing out here?"
((Hey, do you want to put them in "Testing the Waters"?))

((yeah That'd prolly be good...))
Blake felt a little concerned at first when she told him she'd been there thinking all night. But her good attitude suggested she was fine, putting away most of his concern.
"You probably should feel tired," he laughed a little. "And as for me? I'm off baby sitting duty this morning...Tabor let me take an early walk. It's a nice change."

She laughed a little as well, 'Maybe I'll be tired later..' she thought to herself.
"Babysitting huh?" She thought of the little kit and then teen she had sometimes seen with him. She smiled, she loved children. "You must have your hands full most of the time." ^^

Blake gave a chuckle, "You'd think with three adults it would be easy....But the other two are never home. I'm always stuck watching Dulcie, Shula, and Thumper by myself. And while Shula's quiet and can go do her own thing, Thumper always wants to play and Dulcie will go wander off if you don't pay attention because she wants to find one of the other two adults...." he sighed after the long ramble, "It's hard work..."

Candi chuckled. She loved the idea of taking care of kits. She had always wanted some. She knew it would be hard work, but she still thought it would be fun. She was so much like a kit herself. She was glad that she had Zinnia's and Itomaru's son Dorian to look after.
"Well, it sure sounds like hard work," she said with a smile. "But it sounds fun! I have a little kit that I look after. He's not mine, he's more like my nephew. His name is Dorian." ^^

Despite all of his complaining, Blake really did like kits. They were as care free as he was.
"Really?" Blake asked, "That's cool. The three I watch aren't mine either. The one teen is Flannery's sister...I think....the other one was there before I was, and the Kit? She was taken in by us from another family. So I'm kind of like an Uncle....But I'm not related to any of them."

"I know what you mean. I don't have any family at all, but I have some friends who are close enough to be my relatives. It's really nice to have namrah like that..." She smiled, yet it was a distant smile, as if she was thinking about something, and then she added, "no matter how old they are." She smiled at him, wondering if he would know what she meant. She didn't know if he had any family of his own or not.

Blake smiled back at her, half understanding what she meant. He didn't have an family he knew of, but he did have his roomies, and to him they were family. And his good friends were like family too...Like Candi.

Candi nodded back and then yawned, finally starting to feel the effects of not sleeping. She ignored it and tried to shake it off.
"So! Blake, you wanna do sumthin?" She grinned at him playfully.

Blake smiled, "Why not? Didja have anything in mind?" Blake always seemed up for anything, but that was because he didn't do much. He was a wanderer, a nomad of sorts who delighted rather in walking than anything. But he always was set for something else to do.

Candi giggled, "Um, nope! I guess I'm up for anything! What kind of things do you like to do?"
((Ack short response sorry >.<))
