"Oh." Blossom paused, thinking about this. "Oh! I get it. So he's... I think I heard this term before -- cosplaying?" Blossom looked at Alihi, then at Zelos. "That's interesting. What kind of person is this Zelos Something-or-Other? Some sorta swordsman, it seems." Blossom glanced at the glittery wings Rei had attached to his jacket. "...A fairy swordsman?"

"ok, if I think right he won't be coming...what is Rei doing?"

Zelos(BECAUSE I CAN) let out an exasperated sigh and snatched the note from the young boy. On it, he scrawled:
Don't worry about it, kiddo. It's none of your concern.
He then handed the note back to the boy, and walked over to the girls.
"No, my petite paramour, I don't know your name. Why else would one ask, had they already known the answer? And seriously, a fairy? Are you THAT ignorant to things? These are angel wings, little one." Zelos took a few steps back, and made the wings move a little bit.
"Besides, Alihi, fair maiden, were I simply pretending, would I be able to do this?" He then started an elaborate sword-fluorish, something you'd probably only see from the most experienced of swordsmen.
GAH. THAT TOOK FOREVER.

Isamu followed Zelos/Rei. He gave a new note to him. 'First off you can speak to me I'm just mute. Second.......are you someone related to me?'

Blossom blinked curiously as Rei spoke again. Petite paramour? she thought curiously. She studied him as he spoke, and then moved his wings, something that made her gasp in shock. "Are they real? The wings, I mean. They're pretty! They don't look angelic so much as they do faerie-like, but if you say they are..."
She clapped as he performed his sword flourish. "Pretty enough, but you can learn that kind of thing from fencing," she told him. "Break that out in a real sparring match or in a real fight and then I'll call it impressive."

"oy vey, it seems like this will be a long time, so I'll just..."
Nometal walked back along the trees, just so he could be alone again.

Zelos turned around after reading the note, a little touched by the kid. Little guy reminded him of himself when he was younger: sad, lonely, less than talkative. Heck, the kid even looked kinda like him.
"Alrighty, little guy. That's just terrible, not being able to speak and all. Did something happen? And to answer your other question, no, I don't think we're related. I only have one little sister, and my parents are both dead. It is kinda odd, though, how similar our appearances are."
Zelos turned to face Blossom again, a smirk crossing his lips. "I see your point. But, that's not all I can do." His raised his hand, and let a small amount of magical energy come sparkling out. "I have a proposition for you. How about a friendly sparring match? I win, you give me your name. You win, and... we'll think of something." He turned back to Isamu, still lacking HIS name as well. "If all goes as planned, keep watching. You might learn something."

Blossom found herself studying the sparkling of magical energy in astonishment, and when he turned his attention briefly to Isamu, she realized that he had asked her a question. She shook her head like a dog with wet ears and flicked a snowflake off of her nose. "Ah... I don't have Lysander with me," she told Rei sheepishly. "I don't have anything to spar with."

Turning around to head back, Nometal noticed a sword on the ground. A steel sword. Deciding that no one would use it, he picked it up and put it in his inventory, knowing it would come in handy again and started to go back, hoping that he would be able to find his way back.

'My name is Isamu if you want to know.' Isamu then showed the scar on his neck. 'An axe got me. Maybe it's just the red hair that makes me thing of us being related.'

"Alas, perhaps another time, then? My challenge still stands for as long as I draw breath. I'm intrigued. What is this 'Lysander' that you're talking about?" Zelos sheathed his rapier, pulling his hands through the front of his hair, brushing off some of the newly fallen snow. He turned back to the young boy after being slightly prodded.
"Ah, so your name is Isamu. Kind of rare, but I've seen weirder." His eyes moved to the faded gash along his neck. "Ouch. Looks like it hurt. Are you physically incapable of talking, or did whatever cause that just scare the voice outta you?" He let his mind wander a bit, before returning to the conversation. "Yeah, hair color tends to be a good indicator of relatives, but it can be wrong."

"The name of my sword!" Blossom chirped happily. "It was forged especially well some years ago. I've kept good care of it, so it's still in great condition. My father... uh, used to use it, actually," she said, pausing for just a moment. Would he question her on her choice of words? Hopefully not.
"Maybe I could go find a sword to use? Or does someone have a sword I could borrow?" Blossom asked, eager to get back to the idea of a spar. "Just for a little while!" Blossom looked at Alihi. "Do you have your rapier or maybe another sword? Even a wooden training sword? Could I borrow it? Please?"

'I'm unable to talk.' Isamu looked away, 'I went crazy one day and I tore up my vocal cords.'

Aran decided to go over to where Blossom, Aidan, Alihi and the others were. But he was puzzled at who the new guy was, but then he knew it had to be Rei. "So Rei, who're you now?"

Alihi rolled her eyes. "Give me a break..."
She turned to Blossom. "Huh? I don't think--" She reached to her side, feeling the hilt of her sword. "... Huh. I actually do." She pulled out the Iron Sword, the one she had since Halloween, and handed it to Blossom carefully. "Here you go."
