Ryu simply blinked, the book hitting against his arm, though he caught it before it fell to the ground. He didn't think she'd want it to get dirty or anything. He nodded his head and flipped open the cover, the video camera focused upon the pages. "Ok," he said monotonously and slowly let his eyes scan across the page, before flipping to the next, and the next, until he finally made it to the drawing of himself. He stared silently for a second, and then looked back up at her. "I don't see a reason for you to be embarrassed either," he said, his way of saying he thought it looked good. The camera lifted from the book, focusing upon her again. "Why were you so reluctant to let me see?"

Kijutsu looked on herself, admiring her own pieces as if it was the first time she'd seen them. She didn't mean to hit him, but laughed a bit when it did. With a hoarse cough, her wings fluttered softly. "Thanks, I guess..." she mumbled, not really catching on to what he was saying. The camera focused upon he once again and she turned abruptly, going silent for a moment. "You just... Reminded me of someone, that's all." she answered bleakly, heel digging in to the dirt as she fiddled her thumbs nervously. She was blushing deeply, memories flooding back so quickly se thought she'd be swifted up and taken away by the over powering current.

Ryu blinked a couple times, staring at her with that very slight look of curiousity again. "And the person I remind you of... was someone you didn't let see without a small arguement first? Maybe I ask who he was?" He was assuming she was speaking of a male since a male was reminding her of them, so that's why he said that. And he asked simply because he was trying to piece things together for his own understanding. His eyes went to her wings, and the camera zoomed out so her whole body was in the picture, after first zooming on the blush on her face, of course. His own wings shifted against his back as well, but then tucked firmly against him once more.

Kijutsu swiftly turned on her heel with an abrupt expression. "No you may not know who he is!" she exclaimed, and quickly turned her back to him once more. Transluscent wings were now buzzing away in anger, fluttering so swiftly a gust of air formed from behind her. As she slowly calmed down, her wings seemed to slow in rate until they were almost compltely still. She was on the verge of tears, but said nothing for the fear of choking on her own words. With a deep breath, she attempted explaining who he reminded her of. "He... Well, he hurt me... In a way I could never imagine anyone would do..." she mumbled softly, turning towards him. "But that doesn't mean you're a bad person! You just look so much like him..." she added, looking down as she wiped her tear-stained cheeks.

Ryuzaki watched her blankly, his pale blue hair blowing around slightly in the wind her wings kicked up. He wanted to touch them, suddenly, but kept his hands to himself. They were moving so fast... What if it tore on his claws? He'd never forgive himself. But the urge passed as she calmed and the wings slowed before she finally lookd at him again. "He.. looked like me?" he asked quietly, glancing down at himself. He hadn't met anyone else like himself before, so he was slightly interested, though still not enough to show upon his face. He zoomed in on her face again though, noting the signs of tears, and didn't ask about it. "Well, what's in the past is in the past," he said with a slight shrug. "So you just have to forget about it and move on, right love?" That's how he saw things anyway. What doesn't kill you, you can recover from.

Kijutsu finally feel silent for a moment, taking deep breaths to calm herself. With a meak nod, she plopped down beisde him. With a large grin she quickly snatched up her note book." Yeah! So, what do you think of my drawings slash poetry?" she asked, glancing towards him with a slight c**k of her head. Just a moment ago she was so sad, and now she grinning her pretty little mouth off. Such an odd one, she was. And yet, it was entertaining to see what she would do next. But he was such an odd one as well. Ryuzaki, who just a moment ago was bugging her to see what she'd drawn, was now comforting her. And she ignored the whole 'love' thing. Even if it was a habit, it actually comforted her a bit more.

Ryu was silent for a moment, a little confused, but not showing it at all. Why did she shift from almost crying to beaming so quickly? But he shook it off almost instantly, eyes lowering to the book. The camera zoomed in on her face as he rested it on his knee, and he took a moment to huddle a bit deeper into his thick coat before finally replying. "I thought they were good." That's all he said. That was a nice, to the point answer, right?

Kijutsu half expected him to go into detail, and half expected him to do what he just did. She was quickly adjusting to his personality and actually predicting what he'd do next. It was a bit easy, since he was always so calm. But no one could ever guess what Kijutsu'd do next. It was a sad, yet entertaining, result of being bi-polar. With a weak cough, she shofted slightly and glanced down towards the video cmaera. "Why do you record everything?" she asked, wings fluttering softly in curiousity.

Ryuzaki watched her for a moment, and then gave a slight shrug of his shoulders. "Because." That was all he said at first, but then he realized he'd probably be pestered if he didn't go into more detail. That's what usually happened, anyway. "Because," he began again. "I'm usually only in one place for a few months. I have to record them so I don't forget the people I stayed with. With so many families, it's hard to remember them all." He paused and then gave a slight nod, as if confirming his own words.

Kijutsu listened intently, staring at the camera with no fixed expression. She nodded slightly, showing him that she was actually listening. "But you're on your own now. No one can control you now that you're here. I mean, you LIVE here. How can anyone take you away now?" she asked, tears welling slightly. Somehow she felt so attached. Like she'd known him since the moment she left the Hospital. She took another glance towards the camera, wings barely moving.

Ryu paused, and then slowly nodded. "Yeah but... old habits die hard, don't you agree? And this way, if someone says something and I miss it, I can back up and replay it so I'll remember." He glanced from the camera to her, blinking when he saw the tears starting up again. "...what's wrong?" he asked, voice still monotonous even though his eyes held a slight confusion within.

"Yeah, I guess..." Kijutsu mumbled, blinking away the pestering tears frustratedly. She looked up at him with a slightly confused look. "Hm?" she asked, then smiled brightly. "Oh, nothing." she answered with a small smirk. "Anyways... I'm Kijutsu. May I ask your name?" she asked curiously, moving on from the subject. While waiting for him to reply, she climbed to her feet once more. Patting her dress clean, she looked down at him with a small smirk.

Ryu blinked and then shook his head slightly. She was really weird... But he answered her question anyway. "I'm Ryuzaki," he said with a slight nod. "You can call me Ryu if you want, love." There, he'd said it again without even realizing it. It was a habit picked up from one of the families he'd lived with. But he didn't realize he was saying it at all, and instead looked up at her with the same blank expression as always. "Do you always act like this?" he asked bluntly. "Changing so quickly?"

Kijutsu glanced around the court yard. It was now night without her even noticing. " Nice to meet you Ryuzaki." she stated firmly with a small grin, turning on her heels. Wings fluttered softly in the cool night air, but it gave her the goose bumps. "Oh yeah. I'm bi-polar." She stated so simply as if it were nothing. "You'll get used to it in a while. I've already gotten used to you." she added, her back turned to him. There he went again, saying 'love'. Oh well, she really didn't mind. Hands gripped around her arms, pulling herself into a hug in an attempt to warm herself.
