Welcome to Gaia! ::

Desmond couldn't help but wonder to himself if it really was a dream. For weeks he thought the privilege of having her warmth laying next to him was lost forever... And yet.. Here they were.

"I missed everything about you." he cooed, lifting up a hand to stroke her soft white hair. "The way you smile, how warm you are, the sound of you calling my name..." He could go on for the rest of the night, really. But Mitsu seemed to be drifting off. "Thanks for the second chance Mitsu." Though he couldn't help but think how displeased she'd be to see him in the morning... And how this was a mix of heaven and hell. On one hand, he got to be close to Mitsu. On the other hand, he was close to Mitsu and she was definitely shirtless... Oh well. Can't look a gift horse in the mouth...

"Truth is a good choice, man." Klyde was suddenly awake and very close to Blade as he spoke. It seemed to happen out of no where since only moments ago he was out like a light. "Dare seems to backfire after a while." His swaying motions still seemed to tell the story of the drugs running through his system, but he seemed to be a little more aware of their surroundings as he had a look around. "Where are we anyway?"

"You're in a cabin in the woods." Neko explained shortly. He was becoming toasty enough to not care if the vampire knew where he was or not. "We're about to play a game, might as well join in." The feline offered taking another drink of his hot chocolate only to follow it up with a drink of rum.

Mitsu let out another happy sigh as Desmond started to stroke her hair, the tip of her tail wagging a bit as she snuggled in closer. The second chance line seemed to remind her of something though only vaguely as she drifted off while talking. "Happy New Year, Desmond." She had no idea what time it was, not that it entirely mattered. It was only a couple of seconds later before she grew still, sleeping having claimed her.

Next to the bed on the night stand, sitting with Ludwig, were three little bears. The bears she had received for Halloween. The one Desmond had let her choose sat in the middle, she had been unable to get rid of it despite what had happened.

Hearing Klyde, Blade looked to the side to see the vampire right there. Well that was just great. Letting out a sigh, he soon cringed at Riyo's question. He should have known.

"... Yes," he admitted reluctantly, shifting a little uncomfortably. It probably wasn't too hard to guess considering his reactions and words earlier that day but he didn't like to have to say it upfront like that. It didn't help that he felt like things were going to stay that way for quite a long time.

"Um... Neko.. truth or dare?"

Shuddering a little more, Shun shifted a little in the hallway and mumbled in his sleep, "Mitsu...."

Riyo didn't giggle when Blade admitted he was. In truth, she had nothing against him. "That's not a bad thing." She said with a smile, giving him a reassuring pat on the leg.

Though, the feline seemed mildly surprised when Neko picked truth. "Psch. Neko's a wuss too." She teased, her attention shifting back to Klyde as he complained about his motor skills. "You can do it Klyde! Don't believe in yourself, believe in the me that believes in you!"

With the added encouragement Klyde seemed to finally be able to take a sip of hot chocolate. It was like an epic event. Passing the cup back trying his best not to spill it, Klyde focused in on Blade and his question to Neko. "Change into other people?" It seemed like an odd question.

Neko nearly choked on his drink when Blade uttered his question. Honestly he thought this issue had been dropped. At the time when he had offered to change for Riyo he was at a loss for what to do to help her....and Atticus already knew. Or at least he thought he did. The doctor wasn't completely naive. It just wasn't something he liked to share among most of the things about himself. It all was like a breadcrumb trail of clues back to what he really was...which only Hakim knew.

Shooting the thief a look that spoke volumes on the many curses running through his head at the moment, Neko hesitated. Asking to change to dare would make it seem like he had something to hide, but honestly why did he really have to tell the truth? He didn't owe anything to these kids after all. It wasn't like there was a divine punishment for telling a lie. "No." He finally said staring down at his drink.

Before Blade could question him he turned to Klyde. "You...vampire..err...Klyde." He seemed to dig up the name. "Truth or Dare."

Klyde narrowed his eyes for a moment before he tried to consider his options. Being referred to as vampire really didn't please him but he was still far to out of it to do anything about it. "Dare."

Neko tried to think of something quick that would be a decent dare. "You can spend the next round sitting on Blade's lap." A little pay back perhaps.

"W..what?" Klyde looked even more displeased as he looked over at Blade. Even still somewhat high this didn't seem like a good idea.

"I don't think I stuttered." Neko took a drink again, his face getting a little flushed from all the alcohol.

With a groan Klyde moved over toward Blade awkwardly trying to determine how to go about this.

Raising an eyebrow at Neko, Blade soon shrugged. Guess there wasn't anything to his reaction earlier then. However, he quickly frowned at Klyde's dare in which he stared at the vampire and shook his head.

"Stay away from me Klyde," he said while scooting away from the vampire, really not wanting to have the guy sitting on his lap, even if it was just for one round of Truth or Dare. Besides, there was nothing about the dare that said he had to let the vampire sit on him. Riyo's little comment didn't really help all that much too.

Riyo's expression didn't seem to change when she was given her dare. "Okay~" Apparently the part of her that felt embarrassed at the idea of showing herself off... Or worrying about those scars... Was out for the night.

Silently she sat the hot chocolate to the side, awkwardly throwing her shoes off and staggering to her feet.

It took her a moment to get a good hold of the button, but once she did the pants just slid off like butter... Revealing a pair of lacy black panties with cute little bows and stockings up to her thighs... And a couple of scars on the bare parts of her skin. "Hey Neko." She started, shaking off her pants and sitting back down. "Truth or dare?"

Klyde grinned like a fool obviously excited by what he saw. "Now that's what I'm talking about. Look at those beautiful legs. Fantastic." Not really thinking about where he was now, Klyde propped himself up on Blade's knee so that he could look at Riyo more comfortably.

Neko seemed to do his fair amount of staring as well before he turned his attention back to his drink. "No Hello Kitty undies this time?" Oh...that might have been the wrong thing to say. Taking another sip of his drink Neko did his best to focus in on Riyo's question. "Dare.." Since truth had come back to bite him in the a** last time.
