Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lluven: -mumbling to himself- Okay, now I know not to get lost at night.
Nyx: *sneaks around in the dark, glowing in the moon.* Ah who's there?
Lluven: -blinks calmly, trying to steady himself - A cat. Lluven.
Nyx: *comes a little closer* A friendly cat?
Lluven: -a wry smile - Sometimes. Yourself?
Nyx: *shrugs her shoulders* I'm too small not to be friendly.
Lluven: -laughs gently - Can't say I'm too big myself. What's a small friendly cat doing out here in the middle of the night?
Nyx: *grins* I'm sneaking out of the house. I can't go out during the day because the sun hurts me. So I like coming outside during the night instead. What's your reason to be out so late?
Lluven: -a concerned expression flashes across his face for a second, then disappears - I was lost. Again.
Nyx: You're lost? Do you get lost often?
Lluven: For the past two days, and last night, yeah.
Nyx: *looks at him with a concerned expression* Where are you from? Maybe I can help?
Lluven: -a bit taken aback - It's alright. I don't really have somewhere I have to be back to tonight, so...
Nyx: Are you sure? It's not very fun being lost. I'm sure my mama wouldn't mind if you stayed with us for the night. If you want that is?
Lluven: -hesitates before replying - That's alright. It's rather rude for a stranger to lodge in your household for the night, and though I complain it's really rather fun. Come on, if you're always sneaking out I'm sure you'd understand me -laughs softly -
Nyx: *grins* That is true. I mean I quite like the night. It's lots of fun. Also I guess if I brought you home I would probably be given out too for sneaking out in the first place. So where will you be attempting to go back too when the day returns?
Lluven: -ignoring her question by accident - Go back too? You're going to stay out all night?
Nyx: Well I need to get back before dawn because if my mama wakes up and I'm not there she's going to have a freak attack. She's very protective of me because I'm not the healthiest kitten in the world. *grins as she says this*
Lluven: -slightly charmed by her optimism - I understand. It must be hard, having such a protective mother. ...You do know that it's because she loves you, though, right?
Nyx: Yeah I know...but it's kind of annoying too. She constantly watches me and makes sure I'm not getting into danger. She tried to stop be dancing as well but I simply couldn't stop doing that. I love it to much. *smiles again*
Lluven: -cocks an eyebrow- Dancing? What kind of dancing?
Nyx: I'm a ballet dancing. Or I want to be one anyway. I would love to dancing for a propper ballet company one day
Lluven: That's quite impressive! You made the right decision, not stopping it. I think you learn, as you get older, that dreams are the most important thing in life.
Nyx: I don't think I'd be as well as I am now without my dancing. I really love it. I'm learning to dance En Point at the moment though so my toes are really icky and sore but it will be worth it! *grins again widly*
Lluven: -laughs dubiously, wondering why he's enjoying the conversation so much - I'd love to see you dance sometime. Keep at it, yes?
Nyx: *smiles* As soon as I get good enough to dance en point I'll dance for you! I don't get to show people what I do very much. I don't have too many friends really, since I can't go out much during the day
Lluven: -laughs - I don't have many friends either, though I go out at all times of the day. I guess that just means I've gotta work on it a little more, though, eh?
Nyx: Exactly! If you keep working on it I'm sure you'll make loads of friends! I mean even I have a few friends and I can't even go out during the day!
Lluven: Haha, okay! You know what, I will! -flicks tail playfully - What's your name, optimist? I've already given you mine.
Nyx: I'm Nyx! *grins broadly* Well if you're going to make lots of friends I'm going to have to aswell! After all I can't let you beat me!
Lluven: Oh, so it's a competition now? -smiles widely - It's nice to meet you Nyx, but I guess we'll be competing from now on!
Nyx: I can't help it. I have a very competitive older brother so I've been brought up to be a very competitive cat! It's lovely to meet you yoo Lluven. We can still compete and be friends though!
Lluven: That'd be nice! Friends, then? -thinking to himself how the night always makes him a little crazier -
Nyx: Well we've both met each other and we're getting on with each other and I'm having fun in your company thus we must be friends, right? *smiles brightly*
Lluven: -sits and honestly thinks for a while - You're right. We must be. -shakes his head in disbelief - ...okay, then, friend. I guess that means I'll have to keep your sneaking out a secret, eh?
Nyx: Well a friend would keep it a secret, wouldn't they? After all I'm going to get into lots of trouble if my mama finds out that I'm gone. I'll be lectured for hours! I'll promise not to tell anyone that you got lost then?
Lluven: Haha, alright! We have a deal, then!
Nyx: *grins* great! So now that I'm out of the house and you're still lost, what do you want to do for fun?
Lluven: Well, seeing as you seem to know the area, mind showing me around?
Nyx: Sure! This is just around the NyanMans mansion. It's where some of my family and I live. But some of my siblings live in other places too. It was difficult to get out. Theres always a guard on duty so I have to climb up a tree around the back and jump down from a very high wall
Lluven: NyanMan's mansion... I haven't heard of it. Though that sounds rather precarious. Not to underestimate you, Nyx, but isn't that quite dangerous?
Nyx: I guess it is. *thinks* But as long as my mama doesn't find out then it can't be all that dangerous. By now I've done it so many times that I don't find it a problem anymore. The guard will just tell my mama anyway so I have to make sure to avoid him at all costs. I just have to get out of the mansion though. I get clostrophobic if I stay there too long without being able to go outside
Lluven: -nods understandingly - I'd go crazy if I was cooped up all day, unable to go out. Though, you know, too much of anything is a bad thing...
Nyx: *thinks and nods quietly* That is true. If I had to live outside all of the time I don't think I'd do very well, what with the sun hurting me and everything. But being cooped up all day isn't fun. Thats how I found the abandoned dance studio in the mansion
Lluven: Oh! Is that where you practice? Without other people knowing, or...?
Nyx: Yeah I practice there. The room is completely walled by mirrors so it's the perfect place to practice. My brothe- *stops herself*...my friend Dracal knows that I practice there but no one else does. My mama would think that it was too close to humans and thus be far too dangerous for me to go there
Lluven: -shakes his head - Not really. It's a bit immature, but my owner used to read me stories about heroes. I thought that I wouldn't mind going through those battles, or being alone if I could help someone, you know?
Nyx: *nodded feverishly* Yeah I understand. You want to be someones knight is shining armour yeah? That's really noble. I don't think I could protect other people. I'm too selfish really...
Lluven: -laughs - Man, it sounds so ridiculous coming from someone else's mouth! Hard to think I'm supposed to be all grown up now. I'm sure you could, though. I don't see you as selfish at all.
Nyx: I don't think it sounds silly. Just because it's from a fairy tale doesn't mean that it's any less intelligent then any other type of dream. Plus I don't think you should grow up fully. There are lots of things about being kitten that are good things. I'm very selfish, I cling to others far too much, need them far too much. If I wasn't like that then maybe things could be different.
Lluven: -shrugs - Time doesn't seem to have your opinion. Maybe I grew up without realizing it. But if you have something to need, isn't it your duty to need it? There are many people out there who would love to have someone,but can't.I don't think you're doing anything selfish at all!
Nyx: But...I think I made him leave because of my needing him. If I had never needed him then he would still be with me...I think. He had to leave because I was to selfish and attached to him...at least thats why I think he left...
Lluven: -pauses for a second, then looks away - No one in their right mind would leave you, Nyx. Not a girl like you. If that was really what happened, he doesn't deserve you. ....If you told want to tell me who,that's alright.
Nyx: Well...he used...used to be my big brother...I guess. Mama adopted him before she ever had me. But...he told me he loves me...but that can't be right...I mean he's my brother...even if it's not by blood...and I think that made him leave...
Lluven: He must have been a very brave boy. -looks down - I think the reason he might have left was so you couldn't blame yourself. He chose it, Nyx, and that's not for you to regret. If he really loved you, that's what he would have wanted. Besides, you said you lived in hope, right? Hope, then. You will see him again.
Nyx: *nods slowly* He's one of the bravest cats I've ever met. I know I shouldn't blame myself...but I miss him...I miss having him as a big brother because when he finally comes back, which I'm sure he will, he wont be my big brother anymore. Atleast he doesn't want to be. And I don't think I can see him as anything other than a big brother...though I wish I could...because then I think everything would be better
Lluven: He knows that, though. I'm sure he knows that. And he's very lucky to have a sister like you. Just keep hoping, do you understand? We cannot blame ourselves for what we can't control, and it's unreasonable to ask you to change the way you see him after so long. He'll understand.
Nyx: The problem is...I dunno. It sometimes feels like I can change it...and then I can't. Maybe him leaving for a while is a good thing....really? Maybe when he's gone I'll be able to figure it out. I'll just hope that everything turns out for the best...I think it's the only thing I can do.
Lluven: Time heals everything. I've learned that, too. I really think it's enough, as long as you are still thinking of him -smiles wryly - He's lucky enough that you still care. There aren't many kind-hearted people like you in the world.
Nyx: *smiles slightly* Thank you Lluven. You've really make me feel better. I hope that all this hope will work in the end *grins slightly* I have to still care. He's my brother after all. He's taken care of my since I was born.
Lluven: -relaxes and grins - He must love you a lot. You know, that's all the world needs: hope and love. You've got them both, and lots of 'em, so...
Nyx: I can't help but feel that I'm a very lucky cat. I know there are lots of things wrong with my body but I have a very happy life with lots of love and hope. I think my life is going to be okay because of it!
Lluven: You better be okay! -laughs gently, mimicking her - I get jealous just listening to you. Then again, maybe I was once like you, too...
Nyx: I'm sure you'll have lots of love and hope again! It may take a while to get back but I bet everything will be super amazing soon!

Informal RP with Nyx

Nyx: *cleans herself quietly in the shade of a tree*

Hermies: *stops Nyx and freezes* ... Nyx?

Nyx: *looks up from her bath* Hermies!!

Hermies: *gives a weak smile and slowly pads over* Hey Nyx. How have you been doing?

Nyx: *grins broadly* I've been great! An older cat was teaching me how to swim!!

Hermies: *chuckles* Swimming eh? I see someone's been busy! *sits across from her and looks her up and down and smiled* No health problems?

Nyx: *gets a little quieter* Well the sun still hurts me and the doctor says I'm going to have to start wearing glasses but other then that I'm doing alright

Hermies: *bites his lip and then paws her head* Aw, don't get so quiet! The sun is meany pants anyway! Haha, glasses??? Are you going to get the REALLY big ones that make you look like you have magnifying glasses on your eyes?

Nyx: *looks at him indigently* No! I'm going to get really cool ones! I'm going to get awesome pink ones so ha!

Hermies: *starts laughing* Pink ones? I'd take the maginifying glasses anyday!

Nyx: *huffs* That's because you're not man enough to wear pick *sticks her tounge out at him*

Hermies: *frowns in amusement* I'm pretty sure pink is a girl's colour! Pink and rosy like... Flushed cheeks!

Nyx: *huffs* It is not a girls colour. Only real men wear pink!

Hermies: OH! Only Reeeeal men wear pink eh? Does that mean dear Nyxy is really a MAN?! *fake gasps*

Nyx: Girls can wear it to though! *pouts*

Hermies: *lays down, swishes his tail and teases* but didn't you say ONLY real men wear pink?

Nyx: Yeah because men who arn't sure of their sexuality don't wear it. Duh

Hermies: *bursts out laughing and clutches his stomach* ow ow ow ow!

Nyx: *pouts* What?

Hermies: *starts to calm down and wipes away a tear* he he, it's, it's nothing. *smiles*

Nyx: No tell me! *pushes him*

Hermies: *doesn't budge an inch* I just didn't expect that answer is all *grins* Nyxy is growing up so fast

Nyx: *mutters* I'm the same age as you ya know!!

Hermies: *sticks out his tongue* Older by a good few minutes I believe!

Nyx: Minutes arn't a big deal Hermies!! God!

Hermies: Minutes are everything. Ummm... *stares down at the grass* Nyx?

Nyx: *looks at him* What?

Hermies: *looks everywhere but at Nyx* How... How is... Um, everyone?

Nyx: Dracal ran away...Mama is sad because daddy left for a while but he's going to be back soon. What's wrong *notices him not looking at her*

Hermies: Nothing *gives a weak smile* ... I'm glad Mother and Father are going to be okay... Our other brothers?

Nyx: *looks at him curiously* I havn't really seen them much I must admit. Mama is so protective of me that I very rarely get to go outside the house!

Hermies: *snorts* You should be allowed out more often *swishes tail* There's so much to see. Like the markets! You should see the market. It's so colourful *grins happily. Mmm... Nyx... I'm sorry I haven't been a very good brother...

Nyx: I'd love to go outside, but the sun hurts so I try to go out as little as possible. I go out at night though...but things are less colourful then! *looks at him quizically* You've been a very good brother Hermies! Even if you havn't be around a lot

Hermies: *brightens up* A night kid. I shall take you to a night market one night. You'll love it. People still have a lot of stalls up, there's so many things happening. And all the lights and lanturns! You'd love it! Oh, yeah. No I haven't. I wasn't there for anybody. Not that I could have helped much... *gives a lopsided smile* I'm glad others have been for you though!

Nyx: Some of them have...but everyones left other than mama now. But that sounds like lots of fun! I can't wait! Though we'll have to sneek out. Mama doesn't want me to go out at night!

Hermies: *thinks to himself* we'll then, it's a date ^^ I'll make sure you'll be safe. Mother won't even know!

Nyx: *puffs up her chest* I'm not afraid of the dark! I sneek out all the time! I just don't wanna get caught is all!

Hermies: *sticks out his tongue* not of the dark! Anyway, where do you guys live now? Just so I know where to get you...

Nyx: We still live in the Nyanmans mansion silly. We havn't moved at all!

Hermies: Just checking! Don't want to end up going to the wrong place for no reason!

Nyx: Hehe you know you should come back and live with us. With Dracal gone I'm really lonely

Hermies: Maybe... I'm sure I'll only be trouble for everyone. It'll be weird. *hesitates, then nuzzles her head* You'll be okay. I'm sure you know lots of cats! Better be no special boy cat in your heart yet! *gives protective brotherly look*

Nyx: I don't think you would be any trouble. *shakes her head* I don't know lots of cats I'm afraid. I don't get to play normally. *shakes her head again but much slower* Nooo...but Dracal told me that he loved me

Hermies: Mmm... Dracal... I see... *furrows his brow* Um, I don't know what's been happening... But. Well... Do you... Love him too?

Nyx: I...I don't think so...No I don't....I think....

Hermies: ... *chuckles and pats her head* That's okay Nyx. Lots of time to figure it out *smiles encouragingly* Does anyone else know?

Nyx: Mama and Papa and Dracals little sister Ara know. I don't think anymore else knows he loves me

Hermies: I see... Ara?

Nyx: She's Dracals blood sister. She's also one of my best friends.

Hermies: I see, hope you guys have fun! *looks to the sky* Mmm... I need to get back somewhere soon... *faces Nyx* So... Will you be ready for Mission Night Market any day?

Nyx: Most nights I should be fine. It might not be till papa comes home though because I'm sleeping in mamas bed with her to keep her company so she doesn't get lonely without him. I hear her crying at night sometimes.

Hermies: *face falls a little and mutters to himself* Mother's crying... Well, okay. Um.. Let's see... *walks up the tree and scratches a circle shape* When you're ready.... Scratch an X into this tree... And I'll come get you at... 11pm... any night. Does that sound alright?

Nyx: *nods happily* That sounds good to me! Hopefully everything will be better soon though

Hermies: It will. Well, I gotta go somewhere so I'll see you then *smiles and nuzzles her head again* Don't worry. It'll all be okay. Stay safe Nyx, and don't forget! Or I'll tickle you really bad next time I see you! *starts to bound away*

Nyx: Bye bye! I wont forget!
