Welcome to Gaia! ::

selena just sit there siting like a lady and spiing her blood while just waiting for shaodw to finsih even she knew better than to interup him while he was talking to one of his subortianes after he was dont selena looks up and ask " i know it none of my bunnies but what was all that about problame with one of your sires ?" selena asked
selena smiles put the blood down and put ine finger on her chin and taps it thinkingly "uhmm... maybe it is maybe it anit " selena say try to be silly to litin up the mood that now had corssed shaodw face " shadow i think youd be great back in the 18th stlye clothing itd be a nice change fro you " selena slightly gigles "and what have you been hearing about me what did you hear about me shadow " this caugth her interst she wanted to know what the others have been saying about her to shaodw selena cocked and eye brow she clearly had and attatude now "well out with ...." selena smirked the glint in her eye made her look like a a lady for once "so shadow yes we have all nite to talk that is if you dont dogge my question again " selena made it known that she knew he was adoving answer some of them "

Ray smiled, "Yeah... I am jsut a little hungry..." his tummy gurgled loudly, "Or maybe I'm very hungry..." he said adjusting his statement with a soft laugh.

Shadow pushed Luna off of him with a hearty laugh. It was soemthig eh coudl not resist doing but the reaction from the human was strange, no fear was in his eyes, not even simple shock. It was as if he already knew of thier existance wich meant he was liekly to have either been one of them or more likely a hunter. "You are too easy luna. We wound you up good and proper. If you will excuse me, I have something to attend to." he said as he stood and walked back into the kitchen. "I am sorry that took so long. It was no problem, just me and Isabella playing a rather old joke on Luna. Well, it is old by my standards, we used to pull this stunt all the time." Shadow said as hi slaughing finaly calmed down. "18th centurey?" Shadow said as he thought about the look ,"You know, I think i might. I was thinking of changing my style a little from these old things. I'll ask the tailor, I am sure they will eb ahppy to have me ordering soemthing different." Shadow walked closer to Selena, "Oh very little, just some things here and there abotu you, your man and the toruble you caused while I was away. My people like to keep me informed. I have one hell of a debriefing." Shadow said with a wink. He was joking for the most part, he had heard very little from his men since he had returned. To much time had passed since Shadow had been gone and to tell him everything would take far more time than Shadow was willing to spare. He let otu a little tiny sigh before responding to Selena's last comment, "I will nto be dodging your questions any longer. If you ask, i will answer." he said.

Kashan smiled a little, "You really think she would be an idot to pass up a chance like that? Never would have expected to hear that one. Thanks for the boost." he said before thinkng on her sugestion of food for him to learn. "I would gladly learn to cook that. It seems simple enough..." he said as he thought about ways of preventing the manor being burned to the ground. he was no mage of water or ice and as such had little idea on how to sto it quickly. "I did sleep you on the floor you know. it dose not bother me. besides, I can go a long time without sleep. If you need soemwhere to sleep them it is always avaliable to you."

Shadow shook his head, "That was no ordinary human. Every human has some kind of reaction to us. His eyes showed nothing and I mean nothing. It was almost liek he was void of the standard emotions that make humans... humans. No fear, no hatered, nothing...." Shadow trailed off and cast it from his mind. "You really think I suit that old style that well? If that is the case I had better get up to our tailor soon... and watch him have a heart attack." Shadow joked as he moved closer and sat down next to her. "I am sorry for brining him up. The wounds are still fresh and all." he said. He didn't really mean to bring up Lucian, it was a passing comment that he had not properly thought threw, it was basicaly like brining up Cassidy's father to her. Never a good thing, or so Shadow saw it. He noticed that Selena was up to something, she had a look on her face and he could tell that she was teasing him. "Well we could sit here and talk until the sun came up or... we could go somewhere else. Away from all the passing servants and prying eyes." he said with a slight smile.

Shadow did not have to even think about an answer to her question. It was obvious to him, "There are a few places to go. We can head out to the lake, some spots in the town or a place that no servant dares tred without permission. For fear of finding me in there and rather peckish. They have not recovered from my... accidental change." Shadow said. He was sure that Selena was not around during the time of his horrible transformation but the memories would be there if she chose to look for them. He thoguht it best if she didn't though, those were turley dark times. "What is with that look on your face? You have somethign planed don't you? Care to share it with me hm?" Shadow said as he tried to draw the information from her. he was no stranger to looks, he could often pin them down quickly but today he was not up for that and thought it would be more fun if he found other ways aorund it.

Shadow leaned over slightly, "You know very well what look I am talking about. Your face speaks more than you let on most of the time." he wispers to her with a smile. He did like how Selena would go when she was trying to act innoccent, he found it cute. "Ah, the waterfall... I have not been in that area for a little while now. If you would care for a short walk then I think that would be the best place to get away... you mean the small one by the lake or the other one?" Shadow said with a very slight laugh. He was not trying to get into her head, far from it. Shadow couldn't even get into the heads of others in his current form but others would always get into his until he learned to block it. "I am sure you can at times but the servants tend to keep out of the way of enclosed spcaes with me unless the gaurds are around for a reaosn." he stood and offered his hand to Selena, "Shall we?" he said followe by a pause, "I can give him a heart attack later. I'll just have a servant send him a note or do you want me to be in new clothing right now?"

((edit))

Shadow just laughed as he lead Selena out of the manor and towards the forest, "Act innoccent all you want. It is very cute but not very convincing." Shadow said as he leaned over an lightly kissed her cheek. "Well, the one by the lake isn't a proper one but well it is just smaller really." Shadow lightly squeezed her hand she they walked deep into the forest and towards the lake, he was finding it suprisingly hard to keep from showing her some little form of affection here and there while hopig she was not to bothered by it. he was a passionate man by nature but this time was different, he was determined not to screw this one up and wondered how much longer he could contain himself. Shadow always liked it by the lake, it was peaceful, quiet and filled with good memories with only one bad. "I know those servants gossip. The entire manor will mroe than likely know about us by now. Given my reputation for rapid marriage they are probably already prepairing for that. I have no intention of rushing that this time." he added. "What are we doing today? I don't know... I thought you had the sneaky plan... or would you rather I did something?" he asked with a near evil glint in his eye along with something else. It was a burning desire that he was keeping under control for now as he was trying to be a gentleman. It still had not left him, not even while he went out there to play that joke on Luna. He found it refreshing in a way to feel like this again. After a time they made it to the lake, the water fall was on the other side but was reachable and high enough to dive from. He stopped walking once they arrived, "Would you rather sit here, on the little beachy area, right next to the water fall or perhaps behind it?" he asked as he cast his gaze out across the lake. Shadow managed to spot an old sabre that had been left there by him. It was still stuck in the ground but was rusting now. Shadow had not expected to see that old thing still sitting there, not after so long. "You know, I always loved it out here. It was always peaceful, quiet... the best place to get away from everything once in a while that isn't my crypt. I have had so many good times out here..." Shadow begain to trail off as he went into thought. Those were memories he always kept close to him, they managed to help him overcome much in relativly short time since finding it.

Kashan heard Luna's voice echoing threw the manor. "The ball room Luna!" Kashan called out to her. He wasn't quite ready to move from his spot just yet. Luna's voice seemed unliek its usual self, she was angry about somethign and he hoped he wouldn't get caught in what ever was going on.
