Kasumi cocked an eyebrow. "Trust me, I'm not that skilled in cooking, but when it comes to Asian food, I can cook quickly," she murmured.
Naruto cocked his head slightly, watching Merida from the corner of his eye.
-------
Merrick could see the grin on Constance's face and enjoyed it immensely.
Lorcán tilted his head in a slight nod, looking thoughtful.
-------
Kýojin patted Nala's head, mildly surprises when she crouched before leaping upward into his lap and curling up, her tail twitching.
Kÿos shrugged slightly as he stepped into the water, sighing softly as he felt the hot-warm water. "It's remarkable that the bathing pool is only six or seven feet long and three or four feet wide when as I remember them they were usually closer to thirty or thirty five feet wide and half again that long," he said as he sat down slowly, not seeming to notice as his boxers apparently dissolved into nothingness leaving him bare and fully exposed.

"Well that is always good to know," Carolyn murmured as she ate her food. Merida felt eyes on her and she turned her head slightly to see Naruto looking at her from the corner of his eye. She grinned at him and blew him a kiss. Constance smiled as she laid her hand on top of Merrick's. Maybe doing something like would give them more time in the kitchen. They would trade recipes and learn more about cooking together. Cassandra leaned back in her chair as she just watched everyone. She saw the look of surprise on Jin's face as Nala jumped up into his lap and curled up there. Rosalyn chuckled softly as the feline jumped up into Jin's lap. "Yeah she really does like you."~~~~~~~ "We do have larger bathing pools here," Amelia said as she picked up the shampoo bottle and handed it to him. "Those ones aren't private unlike these ones." She smiled a little. "We do have others that work here and they use the larger ones sometimes. You're a very good looking man, Kyos," she said softly. "I don't think you would want all those others hanging all over you while you try to clean up while being locked away all those years."

Kasumi shrugged very slightly, chuckling softly. "I wonder if they have excess chocolate," she murmured softly with a glimmer in her eye that gave away what she had a strong idea of what to do with that.
Naruto shifted his shoulders in a slight shrug, not seeming bothered by Merida's antics. He leaned over and deliberately kissed Merida deeply since he was next to her.
-------
Merrick tilted his head thoughtfully as he rose, about to put his plate in the sink when he blinked, a can of whipped cream falling toward the stove though he caught it. What startled him, however, was the spray of whipped cream that sprayed all over his face and shoulders when he unintentionally summoned the demonic Sparda gauntlet which pierced the can.
Lorcán blinked when he saw Merrick shift his weight before a spray of what he realized was whipped cream sprayed all over his face, shoulders, throat and hair. A low snorting chuckle escaped him.
-------
Kýojin shrugged slightly, shifting in his seat. "I know absolutely nothing about pets.. or animals in general unless they're predators," he sighed with a slight shrug.
Kÿos shrugged as he shifted slightly, showing the livid red and pale white scars on his shoulders and back, some curling around his rib cage and hips. "I'm not that good looking," he said in a low voice as he took the shampoo, looking at it blankly as he wasn't quite sure how to use it; he knew how to wash his hair and body, but.... he wasn't sure what was so special about the bottle.

Carolyn slowly lowered her fork as she grinned at Kasumi. She knew exactly what the other woman was thinking. "I don't know," she murmured softly. "If they don't I am sure we can go and find some." She wiggled her eyebrows slightly at her lover. Merida's eyes closed as Naruto kissed her and she kissed him back. Her hand rested lightly on his arm and she smiled as she pulled away. "Hmm, now a girl could get used to that."Constance laughed as she stood up and walked over to Merrick. He had whipped cream all over him. "All you had to do was say something if you wanted to play with some whipped cream." She teased him lightly as she wiped his face. Cassandra snorted with laughter before holding it back. The look on Merrick's face was just priceless. "Well now's always a good time to learn," Rosalyn said with a chuckle. She ran her fingers lightly through Nala's fur. ~~~~~~~~ "You're modest Kyos. I think we would have those girls drooling over you." Amelia said as she took the shampoo bottle him. "Like this." She flipped open the top and poured some into her hand. She lathered it and began to slowly run her hands through his hair. "I hope you don't mind?"

Kasumi snickered at Carolyn's reaction, well aware that the elder knew exactly what she was thinking.
Naruto
-------
Merrick blinked in confusion, a bit surprised at Constance's laughter. "Huh?" he said softly, slightly confused.
Lorcán met Cassandra's eyes as he forced back a laugh. "Huh, I didn't know that he was a dangerous warrior and comedian," he murmured, half joking..
-------
Kýojin chuckled softly. "I don't mind you teaching me," he murmured.
Kÿos blinked, exhaling at her compliment before she took the bottle from him before pouring a bluish white liquid into her hands and rubbing them together. He half closed his eyes when she started running her fingers and hands through his hair, not minding it at all. "No, I don't mind," he said softly.

Carolyn winked at Kasumi as she went back to her food. She knew there would never be a dull moment with this woman, and she was glad for that. Merida chuckled softly as she turned back to her plate of food. Constance chuckled and shook her head. "Never mind." She kissed the corner of his mouth. She picked up a napkin and began to clean him up a little. "I must admit you look good covered in whipped cream," she spoke to him telepathically. Cassandra chuckled softly at Lorcan's words. "It's always good to be good at more than one thing."Rosalyn smiled and nodded as she looked at Jin. Nala was content in his lap, purring softly. "I am sure there is a lot we can teach each other."~~~~~~ Amelia ran her hands through his hair, washing it thoroughly. It had been too long since she had spent this kind of time with anyone. "Okay, all done." She said softly. "Now you can rinse it out." She picked up the body wash and a wash cloth. She poured the pale blue liquid onto the cloth and rubbed it in. "And this is to wash your body with."

Kasumi chuckled softly, tilting her head slightly so that her wavy hair fell messily into her face, though she blew a few strands out of the way. They almost immediately fell back into her eyes .
-------
Merrick chuckled softly. "I'd wager you look just as good if not better," he murmured back.
Lorcán shifted one shoulder slightly. "You have your healing and utterly amazing body, while I have little more than knowledge and other talents I can't fully control yet," he sighed.
-------
Kýojin tilted his head, mildly curious when Nala stood up in his lap.
Kÿos tilted his head back into the running water, feeling the lather rinse away. "I am thankful that I do not have my brother's talent to see the fates and destinies of those around him. His ability with that does come with limits, primarily the fact that once he becomes close to someone emotionally he becomes blind to their fate; for those related to him genetically and by blood, he is unable to see their fates as well, like his daughter, myself, and his newborn son," he said quietly. He could tell from Amelia's stance she was slightly nervous and thoughtful at the moment.

Carolyn chuckled softly as she reached forward and pushed Kasumi's hair from her face. "Maybe you should buy some clips...keep your hair from falling into your face."Constance chuckled softly as she shook her head. "Well I am glad that you think so. Your opinion about how I am and look is all I care about." she said softly. "You'll learn Lorcan," Cassandra murmured as she lightly stroked her hand up and down Lorcan's arm. "We all learn new things about ourselves every day. Don't you worry."Rosalyn stood up and stretched her arms above her head. She was full and content at the moment. Something she hadn't been in a very long time. ~~~~~~~ "I would not want that talent either," Amelia said softly as she watched Kyos rinse his hair. "To know other people's fate and yet unable to see your own or you loved ones...that has got to be terrible." Once again she held the wash cloth out to him. "Here you go."

Kasumi blinked as Carolyn spoke, unconsciously leaning her cheek against Carolyn's fingers with a slight smile. "Maybe I'll do that," she said with a chuckle.
-------
Merrick tilted his head slightly, hugging Constance close before he purposely kissed his way from her cheek down her throat before he nibbled her earlobe. "And you're so hot and beautiful you make Aphrodite look like white trash," he murmured in her ear.
Lorcán shivered slightly at Cassandra's touch.
-------
Kýojin saw Rosalyn stand before she stretched. "Beautiful woman with a temper, yet she can be extremely generous," he thought, unconsciously whispering the thought to Rosalyn. He blinked as Hyomai belched obnoxiously with a sigh, making him glance towards his twin.
Kÿos took the cloth, cocking an eyebrow slightly before he slowly and deliberately moved, washing his body while watching Amelia. "I would ask you to join me, but that seems too forward at the moment," he said quietly, finding her quite attractive. "Intelligent, beautiful, obviously agile on her feet and flexible in movement though I am curious as to her body; if her body matches her face, then it'll be interesting. I find the way the steam makes her hair gleam and curl slightly attractive as well," he thought, unconsciously projecting the thought to Amelia.

"Hmm, good," Carolyn chuckled softly as Kasumi leaned her cheek into her hand. It made her look so adorable. A softer side to the warrior woman that she was. Constance's eyes closed as Merrick kissed down her cheek and throat. A small shiver coursed through her body when he nibbled on her earlobe. "Hmm, I don't think she would much like that comparison," Constance laughed softly. "The Gods can be quite fickle you know?" She ran her fingers lightly up and down his back. "But I love the compliment."Cassandra smiled at the reaction she got from Lorcan. It was always this way with him and she loved it. Rosalyn looked at Jin with a smile on her face. He thought so highly of her and she wasn't even sure she deserved such a thing. He was much more than she could have ever hoped for. ~~~~~~~~ Amelia smiled and nodded a little. "It is a bit forward. Nobody has been that forward with me in a very long time." When she caught the train of Kyos' thoughts her cheeks flushed a ruby red. She had not expected to hear his thoughts. The only thoughts she heard were the other elder witches. It had been so long since she had heard a man's thoughts in her head without delving into their mind first. "You are...very kind. Most would find it..what's the word I am looking for? Disgruntling. I, however, find it quite flattering." She projected her thoughts to him, seeing if he would catch it.

Kasumi slightly shifted her head, letting Carolyn's fingers move against her skin.
Naruto chuckled, tilting his head slightly as he watched Merida. "It's funny... at one point I knew someone who stalked me while alive because she admired me, and frankly with your looks, I wouldn't be all that surprised to find you had one... though he'd wish he'd never been born if he tries anything with you," he murmured.
-------
Merrick shivered ever so slightly. "Who cares? If she doesn't like it, she can come say so to my face," he said softly in her ear though he licked lightly just beneath her ear, well aware it was a movement that tended to turn her on.
Lorcán chuckled softly at Cassandra's smile. "The only thing that matches your physical beauty is your smile," he said softly.
-------
Kýojin looked up at Rosalyn as he purposely rubbed lightly on Rosalyn's hip and thigh, though he felt something nudge him beneath the chin and glanced down to see Nala staring into his eyes with her front paws on his chest. "You're adorable as well," he murmured to the cat familiar; he could sense the subtle connection between Amelia and Nala, though he didn't manipulate it at all and doubted he could.
Kÿos shrugged one shoulder slightly as he purposely let the cloth slide down his chest and abdomen, well aware his body was showing physical arousal. "Trust me, you're a beautiful woman, and anyone who says different is blind, and I don't mean physically," he said quietly as a faint roguish smile flickered over his lips as he caught Amelia's thoughts. "I won't force you into anything; that would defeat the purpose of being kind to you, which I get the feeling that while you have close friends... you do not have someone that you can show all of yourself to yet. I would like to be that someone, if possible," he murmured to her.

Carolyn smiled softly, her eyes never leaving Kasumi. The other woman amazed her with the compassion she had. She was grateful she had come into her life. "Hmm, so very protective. I do like that." Merida murmured softly as she smiled at Naruto. He was unlike any other man she had ever come across. He understood her. He loved her for who she was and not what he wanted her to be. Constance bit back the moan that threatened to escape from between her lips. She knew that Merrick knew exactly what he was doing to her. They had spent hours together, figuring out each others weak spots among other things. "Even with all these people with us...I am tempted to jump you right now." she teased him lightly so only he could hear her. "You are my reason for smiling like this Lorcan," Cassandra said softly. "You brought a light into my life that I never knew could exist."~~~~~~~ Amelia couldn't help but look at Kyos' body. What she had told him earlier was true. He really was an amazing looking man. If anyone else had suggested what he had...she would have turned them down flat. But with him something was different. She felt this pull towards him, as if maybe he was the one she had been waiting for all these long years. "I..don't have anyone I can be myself around. Not for a very long time now." There had been someone...when she was barely a fledgling witch. She had just been coming into her powers, learning about herself and this young man had come to their village. They had gotten to know each other, but then they suspected him of witchcraft. She had wanted to save him. She was going to save him, but he had told her not to. He had wanted her to live a long life and find love again. His death replayed over in her mind, something she hadn't thought about in a long time. They had stripped him bare, tying him to a pole with wood piled all around him. Amelia had been ready to use her magic to save him but he, a normal human man, had been able to speak with her telepathically. He had told her no. To keep herself safe. She was going to be important later on. Had he been able to see the future somehow? She would never know. He had burned that day, his screams echoing in her head. Unknown to her, Amelia had unintentionally shared the images with Kyos. A single tear fell down her face. "But it would be nice...to have someone again," Amelia said softly.

Kasumi saw the soft smile on Carolyn's face and felt her heart melt.
Naruto shrugged slightly. "Been 'chivalrous' as far back as I remember, regardless of whether the women I've run into were friends or enemies. It did tend to annoy those I had as allies, though," he murmured.
-------
Merrick sighed softly, well aware he was shifting slightly as he knew his body was swiftly showing its interest; he was forcing himself not to react as his pants felt tight. "What's stopping you? It isn't like we can't find more private places," he murmured mirthfully as he stepped back, well aware that Constance would likely step toward him just to be close to him again. "Trust me, love, it's hard to restrain myself from letting my more animalistic instincts from acting at the moment," he murmured, showing her it was just as hard for him to hold back as it was for her.
Lorcán shrugged slightly. "Funny; a guy that usually sits in a dimly lit room brings a beautiful woman a 'light' that she 'never knew existed'," he teased. He was only half joking as if he wasn't helping Merida with new witches, then he was usually in his study reading or researching.
-------
Kýojin blinked as he saw Nala bump her head beneath his chin again before climbing up onto his shoulders and settling there. "I don't know if this is good or bad, though clearly.... I think it's the former," he said quietly to Rosalyn.
Kÿos cocked his head slightly as he saw the images flashing through his mind from Amelia's past. "Trust me, I've seen similar things... encountered one sorcerer who had discovered the dark magic of soul removal in China," he said quietly. He knew that magic entailed ripping the spirit and life force from a still living body, giving the user the skills and abilities of said spirit. "The sorcerer had gotten addicted to the skill, unaware it had corrupted his body to where if he didn't use it, his body aged prematurely. He had used it on a young man who was both a fighter and a monk in addition to being a friend of mine; I could hear the scream of his soul as it was ripped from his body, though fortunately the demonic specter he sent to assassinate me, a warrior with the ability to manipulate the very shadows and voids around him, failed. It forced the sorcerer to face me directly, which by that time he had already begun to age... I destroyed him, freeing my friend's soul, though it was later discovered that an unknown force had raised his body from death, making it difficult for the two to remerge with one another," he said softly. "We all have losses in our lives, regardless of length of time. If we dwell upon those losses, it is little better than surviving them in the first place," he said quietly as he half turned his back towards Amelia as he'd washed everything else already, but short of dislocating certain joints there were still places he couldn't reach.

"Well I find it rather nice," Merida said softly as she scooted closer to Naruto. He definitely was a one of a kind man. Now that he was here with her, she wondered how she had lived without him. Without realizing she had done so, Constance moved forward, closer to Merrick as he moved back. It was almost as if a string were attached to them and wherever he went she followed. "Maybe here in a few minutes we will find some private place to spend time together." Even though they had just come from their room, it felt as if they hadn't been alone for a long time. Cassandra chuckled softly. She loved the way that he teased her. Most wouldn't do such a thing because she was a coven leader. It was as if they feared her although she had never given them a reason to. "Definitely a good thing," Rosalyn said with a nod. "Otherwise you might find yourself with a very angry feline trying to claw your eyes out." She ran her hand lightly through his hair. ~~~~~~ Amelia took the cloth and slowly began to run it over Kyos' back. "I am sorry. I did not mean to burden you with that. I have not thought about him in a very long time." She spoke softly, almost in a whisper. "I don't even know why he came into my thoughts now." Amelia found that she liked the feel of Kyos' skin against her hands. It sent a little jolt up her arms and her fingers tingled.

Alede OOC - The word on the pouch Naruto found is 'Merida'. Kasumi quietly smirked as her form flickered for just an instant, giving away that what she left behind wasn't her true form. She quietly darted back to her and Carolyn's room, lighting several aromatic candles and oils that would make the room smell very pleasant. "Maybe we should rest for a bit; after all, we do need to let our dinner settle a bit," her duplicate murmured playfully, trailing 'her' fingers lightly up Carolyn's arm teasingly.
Naruto tilted his head as he gently ran his fingers through Merida's hair before a knock caught his attention, making him glance towards the window as he saw a shadow flicker momentarily outside. He cocked his head as he unconsciously created a clone that opened the door and found the pouch that had 'Մերիդա' marked on the outside; the pouch was a deep bronze color with ancient markings that looked vaguely Greek.
-------
Merrick cocked an eyebrow as he noticed the duplicate that lobbed an unfamiliar pouch to Naruto.
Lorcán gently massaged Cassandra's shoulders.
-------
Kýojin chuckled. "She seems just as pleasant to be around as you, though I don't mind either way," he said softly, half teasing Rosalyn as if being around her was unpleasant, which it certainly wasn't.
Kÿos shrugged slightly. "It doesn't bother me too much. We all have our secrets and our own unique pasts. They're what make us unique in addition to our own talents. Trust me, something like that is nothing like discovering your own ancestor from several hundred years before you were born... an alternate form of your friend's lover, being merged with your own soul," he said quietly, referring to Merida and Naruto.
