"Oh... um... well.... it's nothing..." Tyler stammered out as he carefully set down the plate in front of Ancelin. It took him another moment, his eyes shifting around as he kept his gaze towards the floor before he finally took a seat. Coming in at the opposite direction from Ancelin's walker, taking a position dead opposite from her across the table.
Poor Yi Jen Ro, he was just so used to being the pack animal he had no problem taking a hold of little Garrick's plate so Onii could go to town. He didn't seem to mind it at all in fact.
"What is that stuff?" he muttered, looking down at the strange 'food' substances on his plate. In particular that macaroni and cheese glob.
Garrick wiggled in Onii's hold, grabbing out for the plate that was escaping into the hands of the Other Tall One. He had almost made the grab, almost that is. And almost fell out of her grasp in the process, catching himself only at the last minute.
Near "flying" accident, he seemed quite content to cling onto Onii now as best he could, not wishing to risk it again.

Onii smiled fondly down at the small child and set Garrick down on the ground after he made his near face-plant.
"Careful now, don't want to get a boo boo." She said. She then stood up straight and grabbed her own plate, before heading over to the fruit and salad bar. She loaded up on various goodies to create her perfect salad. Lettuce, spinach, chick peas, onion slices, cherry tomatos, cucumber slices,etc. In the middle she poured some mozzarella cheese and red wine vinegarette. She then quickly scuttled over and made a perfect ring around her salad with shrimp and cocktail sauce.
Once the city girl had finished creating her plate of typical 'dieting girl' food, she walked over to the two males and tilted her head, content with her selection.
"Now, let's see.. where shall we sit?" She asked rhetorically, glancing about the room.
Ancelin unfolded a napkin and spread it in her lap, before she unrolled her silver wear and throughly inspected it for left over food particles. She scrubbed at the fork for the second to get rid of a water spot, and then glanced acrossed the table at Tyler.
"Have to be careful in places like this." She said, before setting the silver wear on the table. She then reached over to her walker and unzipped the bag hanging from it, before pulling out a campers dining set. "They never clean the silver wear enough so I always just end up bringing my own."

Onii would have to pry Garrick off as if he were Ane with the claws sunk in. After the near spill he'd do everything he could to cling to a relatively solid surface.... but in the end he's still just a toddler with weak toddler arms, and could be removed though he thrashed about like crazy when he was just hanging on by two hands.
Once safe on the ground, he waddled over towards Yi Jen Ro, plopping his fat a** down on his right foot, wrapping arms and legs around his leg. Instant transport for the Lazy Child, being carried around with every step the Adult took.
"Got 'em all riled up..." Yi Jen Ro muttered. However, he had no idea where to sit. Hell, if it was up to him he would have eaten standing up right there. He patiently awaited for the Succubus to pick a spot. Not that any place looked particularly open to him.
Wow... she's kinda crazy...
Not that Tyler was going to hold such a minor thing against her. He sufficed with just setting his napkin in his lap, closing his eyes, and apparently letting out a little prayer while she fished for the camper's set.
He smiled to himself when he finally finished up, looking over towards Ancelin for the first time since Onii showed up. "Guess I didn't come as prepared as you."
He laughed it off weakly, and took up the Questionable Fork that had been set out.

Onii continued to glance around, dammit. They shouldn't of come during the lunch rush, every seat and table had been taken. Onii glanced from table to table, nope, nothing. She spotted Ancelin and that boy she was with.. their table had enough room for them, but if she could she wanted to avoid sitting with her sister as much as possible. But alas, it didn't look as if they where going to catch a break.
"We're gonna have to sit with An and her little whimpy friend, I think." She said with a sneer. She glanced down at Garrick and giggled, ah, he was cute.
Ancelin blushed a little as she jabbed her fork into one of her side dishes. It never bothered her when Vincent or the others made fun of her for being so a**l compulsive, so how come Tyler's acceptance of it flushed her? She shook it off, trying to ignore it.
"I'd bring my own plates if I could." She laughed meekly. "It's probably no wonder I always get sick, I don't let myself get exposed to germs enough to build up an immune system." It was true, An was very prone to catching frequent colds because of her compulsive behavior. And yet still she did it.

Yi Jen Ro let out a little growl of displeasure himself. The thought of sitting with Crazy and City Boy didn't exactly appeal to him either. But he doubted that Onii would just stand around and eat on her feet either like a common animal would.
She seemed too City for that.
So it was with great reluctance that he hobbled along after her, dragging along Garrick with each step. The young Sin making noises of excitement and fun at the free ride.
"Well, you can't help who you are you know?" Tyler smiled it off himself, though his eyes drifted dead down from Ancelin to his plate as he jabbed at his salad, spearing up a couple of leafy bits.
"We all have our little things we shouldn't do, but just can't help."

Ancelin probably would of replied to what Tyler had said, if Onii hadn't of beat her to it.
"Yeah, like how we shouldn't have to sit with you two, but we are. Move, dude. You're sitting by An now." Onii said as she rested a hand on her hip. She wasn't about to sit next to this scrawny excuse for a man, nor was she gonna sit by Ancelin. She wanted to sit by Jen Ro, and that's how it was gonna be.
"You better watch how you talk to Tyler, Onii." An said with a sharp glare.
"Or you'll do what? Onii said, cocking her head at the challenge. "You can't even walk."
"But I can dye all you're clothes puss green and shave your cat." Ancelin said, to which Onii took a deep breath threw her nostrils, puffing up her chest. Her glare went back from Ancelin to Tyler, before she exhailed loudly.
"We just gotta sit together. We wont talk to you, you wont talk to us. How does that sound?"
"What are you gonna do with the brat?" Ancelin questioned.
"We'll get him a booster chair. Now one of you move to the other side."
Oh this was going to be a pleasant meal.

Tyler visably flinched when Onii's voice cut through whatever moment might have been occuring. However, he was hardly in a position where he was going to disaggree with the volitile Succubus. He kept his eyes down, towards his plate, mumbling out a, "Yes ma'am," as he scooted around the booth, sliding his plate over towards Ancelin, and away from the Succubus and Yi Jen Ro.
He kept his eyes down towards his plate, his hair covering up his face and preventing eye contact with the huffy woman. Probably a good thing.
Yi Jen Ro scowled at the City Boy's behavior, though he said no words. Eventually his gaze drifted over towards Ancelin. It didn't soften any, but at least it didn't get any worse.
With a grumbling noise coming from him he set his plates down, picking out a spot for himself, though he did allow Onii to slide in before he took a seat.
"Bwa?" came the call from Garrick. He was staring over at the jumble of feet and legs beneath the table, wondering who they belonged to.

Onii softened her gaze once she got her way, and slid into the booth. She made sure to stay a good ways off from Tyler, and then held her arms out for Garrick. Since it was a round booth, they'd just need a booster stool instead of an actual chair.
Ancelin returned Yi Jen Ro's scowl with her own leer. She didn't like them intruding on her time with her friend, but before she could vocalize things further a waitress came up to the table, who was oblivious to the ill vibes resonating from the table.
"Hello, can I interest you five in anything to drink?" she asked, smiling a bright, cheesy smile that screamed 'please tip me, I don't get paid squat'.
"I'll have lemonade." Ancelin said softly, putting on a smile.
"I'll have an iced tea with lemon, please." Onii said, before she looked at the child on Ro's leg. "And a booster chair for the little one, please."
The woman smiled, before she looked to Ro and Tyler for their orders.

"Water," Yi Jen Ro answered flatly, "Two of them," had to include the child too after all. Gods above he hoped they had water. Real water. Not that weird strange liquid that some places called "Water" that tasted of rotting fruit and had a strange fizz to it.
Just water.
Considering his business "done" Yi Jen Ro took no time waiting for pleasantries around the table. He was HUNGRY. Plain and simple. And he satisfied it simply as well. Bare handing a piece of steak, ripping out a chunk with his teeth.
Utensils? They'd just slow him down.
Garrick wiggled around in Onii's grasp, trying to escape and get towards his own little plate, to follow suit with the Adult who cared for him. Granted there were small flaws in the plan, mostly involving Reach. But he didn't seem to have thought them out.
Poor Tyler. He mumbled something, however, it was right towards his plate. Doubtful Ancelin could hear, much less the waitress waaaaaay over thar. His fork had been set down, his hands in his lap, and his eyes pointed straight down. His shoulders seemed quite tense, and there was even a slight, constant shivering going through him.

Ancelin frowned as she looked to Tyler, the poor boy was terrified. She'd never seen him like this before. She reached out and began to gently stroke his back, trying to help comfort him. Her other hand reached out and grabbed his arm, squeezing it reassuringly. She then looked up at the waitress.
"Um, a water for him too, please." She said.
"Coming right up!" The waitress said with a peppy swish of her hip. She then scurried off to the kitchen, to fetch the requested booster and beverages.
"Hold tight, Garrick. She'll be back with a booster for you soon so you can eat." Onii comforted as she undid a napkin and tucked it into the boys shirt. She had a sneaking suspicion she should of done the same for Jen Ro. They both screamed 'messy eater'.. Okay, Ro acted out on it aswell. But that was beside the point.

Tyler nearly jumped right out of his skin when Ancelin touched him. His hands came up close to his chest, as if he were trying to ward off some strike against him, his shoulders bunching up to the point where they were pressing against his ears.
A moment later he realized who it was. He seemed just as tense, but his arms and shoulders did lower themselves. His skin was covered in goosebumps, that young man's peachfuzz he had on his arms all standing on end.
Act? Bah, that's who Yi Jen Ro was. You might as well have been sitting down with a wolf as he left the Hand behind, chewing on the second half of that steak, with the end of it hanging out of his mouth as he chowed on it. Already his hands were picking up the next piece, the rib. Apparently he was much too busy to bother with conversation or worrying about the company.
"Vamp!" Garrick called out, laughing and clapping his hands as he watched Ancelin and Tyler. Yes, even the toddler was mocking him. It was more entertaining than trying to fight agianst Onii and Physics to get at his food after all.

Ancelin would of been throwing a fit about Jen Ro's eating habits if she wasn't preoccupied with her friend. She continued to stroke his back, smiling meekly.
"It's alright, they wont bite." She said, before glancing over at the intruders. Her eye twitched once when she saw Onii, twice when she saw Garrick, and five times when she saw Jen Ro.
Onii looked at the boy after Garrick's comment. He looked like a vampire alright. She then sighed and stroked the young boys hair, waiting for the waitress to return with the stool and drinks.
The woman came back carrying the stool under one arm and a plate full of drinks above her head, she handed the seat to Onii, whom began placing it and then setting the young boy in it so he could finally reach his awaited meal. After handing over the seat the woman began passing out drinks, before she bowed.
"Enjoy your meal." She said, before scuttering off. At least, the rest of the group could enjoy their meal.

((Note: He called Tyler a Wimp, not a Vampire. Speech Impediments, ftl. xP ))
Tyler glanced over towards the side, seeing Ancelin sitting there, apparently trying to comfort him. Through force of will he calmed down, breathing very slowly.
"I'm okay now."
He cleared his throat, and stabbed at his salad again. His head kept focused towards his plate, not looking up at the others at all, keeping that Hair Cover over his face.
Yi Jen Ro scarfed up the last of the meat he had been chewing on, taking down the whole glass of water in its wake. Apparently he was a quick eater, there wasn't a moment where something wasn't going into his mouth, or coming towards it as he loaded in the next piece.
Garrick meanwhile, seemed to pick up some of his father's bad habits. As soon as the booster seat was firmly located under his a**, and the food was in reach he did so, bare hand grabbing up a tight toddler fist of Macaroni and Cheese.
"Squishy," he murmured, squeezing it just a bit before he brought his fist towards his mouth.

Ancelin frowned, Tyler wasn't going to be able to enjoy his meal at all. And with how tense he seemed to be he was sure to get an upset stomach. She glared at her sister acrossed the table. It was all her fault! Coming and interfereing with her hanging out with her friend.
Onii sensed the glare and gave Ancelin a pleasant smile. She looked to the boy.. they sure seemed close. She then glanced to Jen Ro's plate, before looking to her male friend.
"This is all you can eat, so feel free to refill your plate if you want to." she said, before taking a bite from her plate.
"So, Anny. What happened between you and Jan the other day?" She said with a smirk. An froze and glared at Onii again. She did NOT want to discuss those matters in front of strangers or with Onii for that matter.
"Nothing happened with Jan the other day." she retorted, giving a warning growl.
"That's not what I heeeeeard. I heard you bawling and crying to Vincent about how you turned down sex with her-"
"Shut up, Onii!!"
"I was so shocked! I can't believe you would turn down sleeping with the woman of your dreams." ah women, rulers of verbal warfare. Onii then glanced to Tyler to watch his reaction, if her suspicions where right, he would be surprised and perhaps a little hurt.

Onii did get a reaction. Right when the big reveal happened Tyler seemed to jump up about 3 inches, his jaw hanging open, his eyes bugged. You could have gotten less of a reaction running him right through the stomach with a butter knife it seemed. He completely froze up, his mind shutting down in the face of this new information.
"Makes sense..." Yi Jen Ro grumbled between food, in that nice lull of silence after all was said. The only sound that came from him after that was his knife slamming down hard on the plate, stabbing right through a piece of meat.
Tyler didn't even flinch at the large stab noise.
Even Garrick seemed to sense that SOMETHING was wrong. He pulled his hand back, revealing a little smear of cheese around his lips, chewing loudly on his food as he looked over towards Onii, then Garrick, and finally across the table.
"Wha?"
