As they kept walking, Kevin had to think on that question. What made someone physically attractive? If he was to answer 'They give me hard on, they are good looking' he doubted that the girl would take that seriously. No, not at all. Better stay on the same track as he was, previously. "Well, it depends for each person, just like some likes the taste of lemon, while other don't." That was a good start. Let's work with the other senses to explain it. "Seeing someone who's beautiful, for you, is like taking a warm bath, while someone who is unappealing, is like placing your hand in cold water for an extended period of time. An appealing person is like the smell of a chocolate cake, while someone who is like a rotten fruit." Would that be enough for the girl? He had to admit, it was a weird question to ask. Still, he would do his best to help her. It was always good to have other blind people as friends. You could learn so much from them.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx《 ❤ 》xxxxxxx ❝ Noelle and her sheep, Wander, walked to the lake together. The girl just wanted to get out of the house. Since Ethan left for an intership for their extremely distant relative back in the city, Noelle has recently tried to become more independent but that only lead to a lot of bruises and broken decorations.
Being blind and having horrible coordination sucked sometimes, not to mention Noelle can't even remember the layout of her house after living there for over a year. There must have been Noelle hand prints from catching herself on the wall so many times. Cleaning was also a problem. Because she couldn't see what she was dirty or messy, she couldn't fix it. But she's managed to keep the house clean and organized. She just... can't touch anything now. She was probably the worst blind person ever.
Most blind people had special skills or enhances senses; if anything, her's was worse than normal people's. Can't even figure out the layout of a room or anything. She was just lost without her twin, because he used to do everything for her. But he wanted to get on with his life, and Noelle understood for the most part. She just couldn't understand why Ethan couldn't take her with him.
Noelle walked with her hands clasped in front of her chest like she was singing in church, Wander's clean fur brushing up against her bare leg to make sure they were going in the right direction. Somehow Wander was the Einstein of animals and could guide her around places that she couldn't go herself.
The girl often reached down to pull her dress down. It wasn't short at all, but she was self-conscious, especially around people. Not like she had anything to show off, anyways. She heard voices, and she could feel her sun dress(white, but not like she knew that) falling down. Stupid straps. Noelle picked up bits of the conversation. Seemed like a man and a woman were talking. Sounded like they were talking about beauty... and cake or something. Noelle probably should leave, she didn't want to interrupt something. But then again, she was pretty close; the two people could probably see her. It would be weird if she just left.
"E-excuse me... I'm just here t-to... uh... sit by the l-l-lake. Don't mind me." Her quiet little girl voice seemed to just dissolve into the air. It was so quiet and small. Noelle's face burned. The sad part of that was she didn't know that was what blushing felt like. ❞- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -xx✱- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅

Ayil listened with an intensity that matched the sun's. "I see..." Did this mean she was attracted to Zus, or that he was beautiful? He was certainly warm, but he was also the first person she had met, so maybe it was simply the fact he'd helped her find her way home. After all, she'd yet to meet anyone else of.. romantic interest for her, nor did she even know how to tell romantic- curses on being sheltered by her sister and parents. At least her parents had allowed her to do extracurricular activities and such, like swimming and taking hours to painstakingly learn to ballroom dance. Ayil loved the tango, it was her favorite, but had also taken her what seemed years to learn due to her, well, being blind.
Ayil snapped her head to the new voice, her hair whipping around, "Oh, no, its fine..." Ayil said, trying to pin down the voice, always failing. "Do you think you could help us? If you wouldn't mind?" Ayil asked, "See, we're both blind... and I'm not quite sure if I'm headed the right way..." Ayil said, these were the first people she had met that didn't end up living with her. Who would have guessed Kevin and Noelle were blind like she? Not to even mention both Noelle and Ayil were the blind twin. Small secrets that no one had said but would probably knit the three close.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx《 ❤ 》xxxxxxx ❝ Noelle just stood awkwardly... How could this be? Three people that have no idea who each other were, meeting at the same place at the same time? The sheep baah-ed loudly. Noelle lightly smacked the sheep in a joking manner. "Be quiet, Wander." She nodded, silently, then blushed. She forgot that since they were all blind no one would be able to see it. "Y-yes, it is a sheep. It... g-guides me around... I...I guess you could say..." Silence. "Because... I'm... b-b-blind as well." Noelle put her feet together and twiddled with the frog clips in her hair. Even though she was almost twenty, she still dressed and acted like a little girl. She turned her head downwards like she always did. It was weird being around blind people. You didn't have to watch what you did, or even do the things that make you socially acceptable. ❞- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -xx✱- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅

Ayil scoffed, "I happen to enjoy swimming very much.. I couldn't find the beach...." Ayil said, to her own defense, didn't think she was blind. She hoped he realized she could have just left him, and gone about her lake escapades all by herself. Ayil's eyes widened, "...three blind mice, anyone?" Ayil asked walking with her hand still linked to Kevin towards the sound of the sheep. "I'm Ayil..." She said as she bumped into a sheep and stopped abruptly.

"I'm Kevin... Tell me. Is this lake the Blind-People Hotstop?" That would have been the only logic explanation. Being dragged by Ayil toward the new girl, Kevin stopped right in front the sheep, whom he started to pet. Eh, at least it didn't seem dirty and smelling like most farm animals were. Then again, most farm animals weren't the kind to guide blind people around... nor were blind people ending up meeting each other at a lake. That was just weird. "So, can you guide us to the village? I am afraid I am new here and I do not know my way. I've already been attacked by bandits once, I wouldn't want it to happen again, therfore, I'd like to be home before nightfall." Because this was a terrible island where people tried to rape you in the middle of the night! He had heard of the high count of death made

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx《 ❤ 》xxxxxxx ❝ Noelle coughed quietly, just mostly to create silence so she could talk. Didn't really want to interrupt anyone if at all possible. The girl nodded again, although it couldn't be seen by anyone. "I-I'm Noelle..." She said in a soft tone. Well, that was how she always spoke. Softly and in a high-pitch. It was very rare to ever see her angry or so emotionally troubled that she needed to change her voice... especially because of all that's happened to her. She never wanted to get angry again. She'd probably get her legs cut off... Then she would be a blind cripple! "Y-yes... of course. W-w-wander needs you to be... m-more specific though." Her sentences came out detached and weird, but weren't they?

Ayil would have reached out for the woman but felt weird about forming a human chain. "Kevin... where do you live? I'm sure I can find my way once we're in the residential area... after all, my roommate never shuts up." Ayil quipped, she wasn't quite the comedic genius, but Noelle seemed tense, or maybe shy... Ayil wasn't sure. Maybe Noelle and Ayil could have a sleepover, Anya told Ayil that boys weren't invited to sleepovers because they didn't like girl stuff. But maybe Kevin would like girl stuff? what did people do at sleepovers? Maybe they could form a band or something like that, and be the Three Blindy People. Or something clever like that.

Where did he live again? He went to respond, but had to stop himself, having forgotten his address. Well, this was a small island, not like there were many places one could live. "The apartment complex. Near the beach? I believe there is only one..." It was a really well funished and classy appartment. Lucky for him, it was his employer paying for it. He could profit of the chic while not lifting a finger to earn it. Ah, life was beautiful sometime. "Is it too far from your place? I'm sure I would be able to find my way if you can just guide us out of the woods."
//Gah, sorry, failpost. Im tired.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx《 ❤ 》xxxxxxx ❝ So... the apartment, and the residential area? Those were both pretty far away from her home. Then again, she lived on a huge farm, and those were usually not near residential areas. "I live r-rather far away from where you two live... But... W-wander can definitely take us out o-of here... If you'd like..." Sure, she was hoping to stay at the lake longer, but she couldn't refuse to help two other blind people if she was capable. And it felt nice to help people, because it was almost impossible for Noelle to ever help anyone. It was always people helping her. Always. "I guess.... j-just follow me?"

Three blind people walking in a line while being guided by a sheep? Was Kevin the only one finding that a bit silly? Then again, this was all happening on Nirvani Island, home of the silliness, so he shouldn't complain. At least they weren't being attacked by a panther. Yeah, he had heard the stories... "Alright then. Let's go. I'll follow from behind." Mainly because he'd preferred to think he was being guided by two woman rather than by a sheep. He still had his blind man pride!

He carried a dark burlap sack on his back through the the woods surrounding the lake. The rain fell hard but the leaves of the trees sheltered him from most of it. Once he got near the lake's edge, Carlo set the sack down. The sound it made as it hit the ground hinted that it was heavy, and dark red stains were on his back. He didn't feel like burying the body because he felt as if there wouldn't be anyone to discover it any time soon. The person inside was separated into pieces, that poor innocent female. Carlo placed his hands on his hips and smiled as he overlooked the lake in the hurricane. After he felt the last of his satisfaction from his deed, he left the scene and the body in the burlap sack.
-Exit Carlo-

Benedetta Traiylor, however, was unaware of that as she came to the frozen lake, a large bag in one hand while she looked for a good location around the lake. It was really quite beautiful this time of year – no fisherman were bothering with it, the animals were all going to the still-flowing river for liquid, and the shrine was just as peaceful as ever with the undisturbed snow surrounding it. She loved it and could only hope that whoever she had invited out to this area would feel the same about it. What kind of person couldn't enjoy such a sight, after all? She was sure that, had Benedictus been here for this season, he would have been happy to agree with her. It was one of the few areas on life that they did agree on, after all..
But, at least she had the sense to get a plastic sheet laid out on the snow before even thinking of sitting down. Above said sheet was a thick, woolly blanket that really had done nothing but gather dust in the old home the Traiylor's had moved into, so even if the plastic below it didn't completely protect it from the snow, she wouldn't have felt any remorse for it. She silently sat down on the patch she had covered, feeling an uncomfortable crunch before getting used to the oddness. She turned to set the bag she carried down, leaving it open so she could carefully take out a pair of ice skates to place beside her. From then on, she went to waiting for her guest to arrive, eventually laying back for a small nap. Oh, it was much too quiet for her to believe it to be a bad idea and she was sure she would wake up whenever her guest came crunching over the snow. So, to pass the time..
