Obviously, Anala didn't understand the idea of festivals. He had to remember that she had lived with jackals her whole life. Luckily, he was a smart man. He had studied all different types of scrolls in his life time- that included animal studies. So he asked, "Why do jackals play? Especially pups?" He already knew the answer but he wanted her to say it. "And why do jackals feed together?" he added. "As for safety, we've done this before many of times, we triple our guards on nights like these. Yes large groups are vulnerable but we prepare for these types of events," he said. They arrived in Seth's room. "Place the scrolls on my desk," he told her as he searched for something in his drawer.
It worked, she did feel a little better when he said things were fine. Not only did she feel safer but knowing she would be near him if she had to heal him made her feel better too. She wished she was so worried, they've had festivals before and everything was fine. It was because of last night, ever since then she felt frightened. Amme didn't like feeling this way either because she had no one to go to when she felt this way. She had no family to comfort her. She smiled though and said, "That would, thank you." She stayed quiet for a few moments then asked in a low voice, "I'm not dreaming right now am I?" All day she's felt like she's been walking in a dream- she wasn't sure if that was because of lack of peaceful sleep or nerves.

Anala thought that was an odd question, alot of people knew what Jackles played. "The pups play because thats how they learn how to hunt" she said, she never joined them but she watches them all the time "and they feed togather because there a family and worked togather on the kill". That was deffernt though, that was suvriving and how they lived, deffernt than humans.
She set the scrowls down on the desk like she was asked. She wondered what he was looking for, perhaps something to wair for the night.
Atem blinked a little worried for his long time friend "No this sent a dream" he said sofly. He dident want to see Amme get sick, he knew she had a heard night last night. "are you feeling allright" he asked conscrned for her.

"But hawks don't. Hawks are always alone they feed alone and never play with other of their kind. Yet they are just as keen as hunters as jackals are," Seth said still looking. He pulled out some of his own clothing for the night but kept looking for something. "You ever think that they play just to play? To have a good time after hunting?" Seth asked. He read in one of his scrolls theories about pack animals that do that. However the comparison was between pups and human children. It was a bit ironic however, Seth was explaining fun and how humans need it yet he never gave himself time to have fun. It wasn't entertaining to him, it was pointless. The only good that came to him during these times were spirits and a slight break in work. But he was not entertained by these events.
"I wasn't feeling well when we went out before. But I do feel a little better now," she said. "There was an old woman asking to tell our futures..... Mana fought with her," she said with a small smile. It was a little funny. She didn't know how to quite explain the being watched feeling however. It was probably just nerves right?

Anala has watched them closely. What else what she going to do when she wosent trying to get food. "Your comparing two deffernt things. humans can play jest to play because they dont have to fight to live every day" she said. "I never played when i was young jest to play...I would have died" she knew there was a deffernce. "Think what you want though, I dont care As long as it dosent harm me it dosent madder what anyone thinks about me"
Atem smiled slightly. "That dosent suprise me that she would" He said. Mana was a free spiret so it was no shock she would do that "I hope you start to feel better. Maybe you were jest worried for Anala "

Seth ignored her for the moment as he continued searching. Finally he found what he was searching for. He took it out and laid it out on the bed. "If you don't care what people think then you won't mind wearing this tonight," he said revealing it to be a young ladies dress. It was his mothers when she was younger. It was given to him as a keepsake. He tried multiple times to throw it out but it was one of only things he had left of his mothers. "The tailors don't have time to make you a new dress so this will have to do," he said saying it as if the dress was nothing to him. "You can stand there and mock how all us humans do is play but when it comes to surviving, the men in this palace survive the many battles and wars we have fought. Though more discipline would never hurt- the Pharaoh and elders insist on giving them time to rejoice," he said. It was funny, normally Seth was the one to say that celebrations were pointless. Perhaps because he felt he needed to be correct, or because she knew nothing of tradition.
"Maybe," Amme said actually starting to feel better. Maybe she was just nervous from multiple things. She let out a true smile showing she felt better. "I'm surprise they are letting remain down here. By now they would have you getting ready and cleaning you up. Must be a nice change of pace for you," she said slightly joking. Although she shouldn't joke, she didn't like people getting her ready and dressed very much. She tried multiple times to get them to let her do it herself. But that never works.

Anala blinked and looked at the dress. Why did she have to change, she wosent going, there was no point in her going. "Whats wrong with the dress i have on...its still good" she said since in her ming this one could last her for years to come since it wosent shreeded or falling apart, whay put on a new one. "im not going and even if i was i look fine" she figured that she did because of the last time she was there.
Atem smiled nervousely "Well im not exactly sapost to be down here right now" he said. It dident take long for him tp get ready and he wanted some time to himself. "There probely looking for me and will dragg me off to get ready so to say" he did this as much as he could if to jest keep things intersting around the palice.

"What are you going to do? Sit around all night?" Seth said narrowing his eyes a little. He did like someone who had a mind of her own, but no reason for her to go against him. Seth was not used to that, everyone listened to him and that was that. "You're going and you're wearing this. You're not keeping it, you're just wearing it for tonight. Good dress is required. I won't have anything less," Seth said with an agitated voice. The man was in love with perfection, of course he would want her properly dressed and made up. No, she wasn't royalty- but she was a special guest. It was bad enough when Amme and Mana were younger they wouldn't get in proper dress during festivals- he wasn't having another episode like those again.
Amme smiled when she saw the nervous smile. She knew he did this so he wouldn't get bored- and she wouldn't take that away from him. However it was fun to poke fun at the fact, "Not supposed to be down here?" she said sarcastically while smiling. She put her curled finger over her lips and looked up as if thinking. "Now what would Mahad say if I just so happen to pass him by and say something? He and the others may say that I am influencing you too much," she joked. Of course they knew she snuck out- no thanks to Seth whenever he caught her.

Anala wosent going to go. she hated crowds and would most likely attack someone if she felt cornored. "Im not going anyware" she said. no one ever told her what to do, she dident care who it was she thought of herself as being outside human rules. she dident grow up around them after all. "And what im wairing is jest fine, its only ripped a little and is easy to move in" she wouldent change no madder what.
"Hehe you wouldent do that....would you" Atem asked. Well he would go get ready, he jest wanted aq little free time to himself. is that really so heard to understand. "Ill owe you one if you dont tell anyone and give he a head start" he said, jest like when they were kids Mama and Amme would usaly look out for him and give him a head start if he needed to get someware fast.

Now Seth was a little more then ticked off. People always listened to him and did what they were told. "You're disobeying me?" he hissed a little raising an eyebrow. He couldn't take into effect that she did not grow up around humans and rules. He didn't care, and he didn't care who you were- you listened to him and that was final. "That's too bad because, you are going, you don't have a choice. And you are getting in this. You're not going in rags. I won't allow it," Seth demanded sternly. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her slightly toward him adding, "Do I make myself clear?" He just wanted to strike fear in her to make her obey.
Amme smiled and kept quiet. She then stuck out her tongue a little like a child and giggled. "I guess I won't tell, because I'm curious to see what the Pharaoh would owe to me," she said joking. With Amme being so wise and quick minded as she was now it was no wonder she was so witty and playful when she was around Atem. She was only that way with him, she was only fun when he was around her. Perhaps cause he could actually take a joke from her.

Anala jest smirked up at Seth. "I live out in the desert...ware something can kill me every day..." she said. She knew Seth could hurt her, she knew that very well, but if she was scared of him hurting her then she wouldent be able to stand up to him. "I know you can hurt me. Im not scared of getting hurt." she wouldent go, the only way to make her go was if Seth controled her mind, whatch he wouldent since that would go agest everything he was sapost to do. "Im not going, so we can stay here all night and fight about it or jest accpect it and kiss me"
Atem smiled and laughed lightly "Well i can get you what ever you want" he joked right back with Amme. He liked that he could be himself with her no madder what, part of him wished he could jest be a normal guy, jest so he could be like this every day. "I better get ready." he knew that if he dident soon he would get in trouble.

Seth twitched in anger. He wouldn't actually hurt her, most people by now would listen because they were simply afraid of him. And as much of an a*****e Seth was, he wouldn't strike a woman. However he had no problem man-handling her. He tightened his grip and pulled her toward him. "I have absolutely no problem stripping you down and dressing you. So you can do this the easy way or the hard way. That is your only choice," Seth yelled at her strictly.Anger was on his face but only when she told him to kiss her did his emotions change. He looked shocked at first, he wasn't sure if he heard her correctly. "I'm not kissing you," he said simply. There was no anger in that last sentence, he said it quick enough as if to move on and forget she said it. He didn't want to dwell on that thought any longer.
Amme chuckled a little. But she didn't say anything back about getting her what ever she wanted. She thought about what the old lady in the town said. So she just let it go and laughed along with him. Amme sighed slightly, "Yea, they'll be looking for me soon too." She backed away and waved to him saying, "I'll see you later." She then turned around and started to walk to her room.

Anala seemed to think for a moment. she seen humans kiss and they seemed to like it, maybe she got it wrong. Oh well she wosent going to go "why do you care if I go, Im lower than slaves. I dont do normal things...you like you image...people will start talking if a savige desert girl went with you...and if other girls saw you with me they would start thinking they have a chance...Im at least trying to get to your standers" she had seen how Seth was with his image, it ment alot to him. "So im better not going and praticing reading" that seemed logicel to her. "and besides, all anyone dose at these is try to attract a mate Ive watched them before"
Atem smiled and nodded as he made his retret to his room to get ready. festaves usely made him relax a little but with Bakura out there and the fact that he might do something made him worry slightly. the thife was tricky and he knew that he couldent expect him to stay away jest because of what tonight was.

"I don't need a reason," Seth said stubbornly without giving her an actual reason. "And I really don't care what people say. I'm sure they already talk about me. If I hear them I'll make sure they pay," he added. His image did matter and she may be right. But he was trying to dress her up so nobody would think that. But he was being honest, if anybody said anything he would make sure to make an example of him - nobody would peep about anything poorly about Seth again. "That's preposterous. I've never done that," Seth replied to her last statement. He knew it to be true but he didn't have to tell her that.
Amme almost made it to her room to get ready herself, but was stopped by the palace workers who have been looking for her. She tried nicely to tell them she didn't need help but they did not listen. They happily and energetically led her to the dressing and wash rooms. They were so excited about the festival they ignored her. Oh well, almost. She just didn't liked being so bare in front of others. It seemed to not be a big thing with everyone else, but it was to her. Not so much because she was self-conscious- after all they were all females, but it left her feeling vulnerable to the world. And every time she went to cover her own self she was told not to. They went on about how pretty she was going to look and so on. Amme just dazed off hoping this would end quicker.

Anala gave Seth a stare that said that she allready knew that he dident do such silly things. "I never said you did, I jest said what it was" she said in a bored tone. and if not for the fact that she was rather enjoying his grip on her arm she would have bitten him buy now. "I can do more not going, if Bakura comes agen ill fight him off." she dident want him to come agen but he would, sooner or later he would.
She thought for a moment, What if Bakura attacked during the party, he seemed to know a little magic so he might be able to hide himself easy. if she was there she could find him and keep an eye on him. "Okay ill go" she said suddently and then bit seths hand "that was for trying to controle me" she leaned up slightly and pressed her lips to Seths "that was because if i do face Bakura agen out there I probely wount live" she she said like it was no big deal.
Atem let his servents help him get ready, this was something he had gatten used to since it was something that happened since he was young. He could do this all himself but he knew that fighting it would go no ware and jest make it longer in the end. something he dident want to cause so he jest let it happen. (cute avi...and i was thinking that Bakura could be sneeking around in the crowd. I wants some angest in here, so i was thinking he could try to kill anala, after all she was able to get away form him, hes probely not happy about that)

[[thank you :3 Yours reminded me to change into Halloween attire :3. Yes! That sounds like a good idea. Perhaps when it happens Atem can go to help and Amme wants to go with him to protect him but he makes the guards keep her away from harm? That way later she can be upset with him/ at the situation because she didn't want him (or anyone else- mainly him though) to be harmed?
Also did you get Anala's line from 'How to Train your Dragon'? *is a How to Train your Dragon f*****t* :3 ]]
"That's what the guards are for," Seth said feeling nervous about her trying to fight him. He knew she was strong but he was starting to feel protective of her- like she was a possession that had to be kept safe. Which was ridiculous because he had no feelings for her. But here he was, nervous about her. Seth's eyes widened a little when she said she would go. He was shocked, now she agreed, just like that? After all the fighting? He instantly let go of her when she bit him. He snarled at her, wanting to curse at her but didn't. She agreed to his wishes so he let it go. She then approached him and kissed him. He didn't quite hear what she said, his mind was trying to process what happened. He didn't say anything at first, he just stared. For once he didn't know what to say. He backed away and then finally said, "Just get changed." His words were as cold as usual but his face showed tons of emotions running through him. None particularly bad either. Seth almost rushed out of the room. He shut the door behind him and waited. Did she just kiss him? Why did he scold her. He didn't want to kiss her. Then why wasn't he mad? Why was his arms shaking?
Amme finished being bathed and was asked to dry off. Amme walked around bare footed as she dried. Chatter filled the room but Amme zoned out most of it. She approached the dress they made for her. It really was beautiful, was this too much for her though?
"He'll love it," Amme heard someone say to her.
She swung her head around in the direction and asked, "Excuse me? Who?" She blushed.
"Lady Ammeterasu? I said you would love it. Your dress. Don't you like it?" the palace worker repeated and asked.
Amme paused for a moment and processed everything. "I.... like it yes," she said to her. "Do you think it is too much?" she asked.
"Lady Amme I hardly think this is even close to busy," she replied thinking she meant there was too much going on in the dress.
"No I mean..." Amme said then stopped, "nevermind. No, it is a lovely dress."
[[I'll have Amme ready next post.]]
