Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kitara shakes her head, "You're right. However, your parents can see the entrance to the town from their front door. Probably one of them will be stepping out, wondering where I am, soon. Your mother or your father, who knows."


((Ooc: *thumbs up* Okay!))

Elvini laughs, "Could be either or both because I'm almost the daughter they never had. However, that doesn't make me your sister. I'm still your cousin."

Jay chirps something to her and she nods. He flies to the Moonleaf's house as Kitara and Darian continue to walk towards it, casually.

Kitara grins, shaking her head, "Close, but not quite. I'm a full grown elf so I can live on my own, not having to be adopted. If I was younger, they'd totally adopt me and then I'd really be your sister. However, I'm staying who I am and will be your cousin, very close cousin that is almost a sister though not technically a sister."

She hears Jay chirp up and raises her eyes. She sees a blond haired elvish lady standing in the doorway, wiping her hands dry on a towel that hangs from her apron. The lady lets the towel fall back to its original hanging position as she steps away from the doorway.

"Kitara! Darian!" she calls happily, opening her arms to them, "You're back!"

Elvini glances at her cousin, "Well... Come on then."
She then starts walking faster so to greet the lady, Lady Annalicia Moonleaf (Darian's mother and Kitara's aunt).

Kitara rolls her eyes before saying, "Yeh, I realize you were being sarcastic, at least a little bit. However, I was just making my point known."

She finally makes it to her aunt, who embraces her and asks her where she had been.

"I was at the market, as I planned. I found your son on the way there, though, and started a conversation with him," she says, returning the embrace before motioning to Darian.

"That elf needs to be less serious about his hobbies," Annalicia Moonleaf sighs, releasing Kitara, before stepping up to her son.

She smiles and takes Darian in an embrace, "But, you're here and that makes me happy. Where have you traveled to? How have you been? You've been eating correctly with a balanced diet, right? Have you remembered to get your sleep? Are you staying here for more than a night?"

Elvini shakes her head, Jay landing on her shoulder, and says as she walks into the house, "Aunt Anna, can't he at least come in, take off his boots and travel-wear, and sit down before you start asking him so many questions? Uncle Greg, I'm back from the market!"

Kitara searches for her uncle, not finding him right away, as Darian and his mother talk. Jay chrips something up from by her shoulder, something about the groceries.
"Oh yeh! I forgot about them!" she says, taking the groceries to the kitchen.

Annalicia sighs, "Darian, you know I always worry about you. You're my son, so I have the right to. Also, you didn't answer my questions."

"Just like your father. Short and simple answers. That's why I enjoy talking with Kitara," she says as she pulls back from the embrace to look at her son, "You've changed. Not physically, but somehow you have changed. Something big has happened in your life, hasn't it?"

"Aunt Annalicia!" Kitara calls from the kitchen.

Darian's mother turns to the door before saying over her shoulder, "Anyways, I have to make supper now that Kitara has brought back the groceries. Come on."
