Alyosha listened to Fae. "Must.. have been a stray, yes.." he nodded, using this excuse to get out of explaining about Sy "I'll.. uh.. keep an eye for it!" he laughed slightly nervously.

Alyosha looked into the kitchen and wandered in, grabbing a bag of instant noodles and opening them, munching them raw. Being pre-fried they were tasty and took the edge off of his hunger. Returning to Fae, he slipped into one of the seats around the table and relaxed back, juice and packet ramen in hand.

((It's ok... I might be slow. Talking to my flatmate biggrin she's distracting me razz ))

((Ah, okies. razz Btw, what's a flatmate?))

She eyed him suspiciously, hoping she could find answers here today. Perhaps not. She wasn't any kind of investigator, but was just curious. No cats, hm? Ah, well. She'd figure it out sooner or later, even if this was an obvious hint.

She watched Alyosha walk back and forth from the kitchen, munching on raw noodles. She grinned. "Could that possibly be healthy?" She asked, of course, guilty herself. She eventually sat down and gave Pueblo's head a few strokes with her hand, feeling the gryphon's fine feathers. "Pueblo's so healthy and happy. I think she's finally starting to fall into a job..." She trailed off, the capricious thought of the gryphon distracting her now.

Alyosha looked down at the noddles and then back at Fae. "Uhm.. never thought of it to be honest." he grinned. "They taste pretty good, probably about as healthy as crisps (american chips)." He was glad she had dropped the subject of the cat, not really wishing to "out" Sy. It wasn't really his place.

"Yeah," he said, changing the subject. "She's looking good, I can see you're taking good care of her. Has she been showing her artistic side, then?" He grinned a little, looking down at the pretty cub. "Da, Peublo? You drawing pretty pictures for Fae yet?"


((Uhm... like a roommate.. but... sharing a flat (apartment)? biggrin ))

Fae grinned, enjoying the leasure talk about food. Even though Aly was the 'serious' type (for lack of better words), when he grinned like that, it made everything much more relaxed. "Yeah, I have to admit, whenever I cook ramen, I have to empty the bag of hard noodles." She offered a full smile but then looked back down to Pueblo quickly.

Pueblo looked up to Aly and swished her tail. His voice was friendly, as so was his smile. She bobbed her head even though she hadn't moved on to paper yet. Crawling over to him, she pecked at his finger in a sort of nibble.

Fae's eyebrow furrowed slightly in question. "Yeah...she has. How do you know?" She asked curiously. Not so much eager to know, just wondering how he knew. She normally didn't like to bug people about things they didn't want to say, so she wouldn't press anything on with meaning.

Alyosha blinked up at Fae, grinning slightly. "I didn't, was just a comment. It's nice to know she actually is.

But ahhh I've been away from my work too long." He looked down at the empty glass in his hand. Scrunching up the empty ramen packet he got to his feet. Sorry to dash, Fae, been nice to see you around but I have to get on with things before it hits night.

He smiled once more and then headed off in the rdirection of his rooms.


((Sorry... it's nearly 2am here now.. tired ;_ wink )

Fae's lips curled softly. She was happy to know that people saw her conissuere side for the arts. It's how she liked to be protrayed as it seemed to rub off on her Aerandir as well.

As Alyosha stood, Fae somewhat frowned as she watched him move. "I understand," she softly said. Her brilliant green eyes frosted behind her glasses looked to his obscure golden ones. Why hadn't she noticed this before? "Goodnight, Aly. It was..nice to see you again." Her chin dipped a little into a small nod. "Don't forget to keep an eye out for that cat," she smirked. As his body dissapeared down the hall, her eyes strained into the dark. It was getting somewhat late, and her attention went back to Pueblo. "Well, it seems like it's been awhile since I've done any research.." she stopped. "And painting," she directed at her gryphon. "I'm sorry, Pueblo. My attentions have been distracted, but now they're back on you." Her hand went to stroke the gryphon's head and grinned when she cooed.

Pueblo's ears fell slightly to make the surface area for her keeper's hand open. She didn't enjoy the thought of her sensative ear being suffocated by a stray finger. The feathers around her neck fluffed as she cooed a little, beady eyes half lidded by the semi-clear membrane. Pueblo's keeper's hand always seemed to have this hypnotic trance over her whenever she found the right spot to rub. Shivering a little after awhile, she realized the day was ending and shook herself awake. "Peep?" She cocked her head to the side as Fae mentioned the word 'paint'. It seemed like a familiar word, yet she didn't know it. The word excited her from whatever reason.

Fae grinned. "Then c'mon, lets go home. I'll show you a few things tomorrow that I think you'll enjoy." Fae didn't know if Pueblo was going to be an artist or not, but she thought it'd be fun to show her little gryphon a passion she loved. Offering to carry the gryphon, Pueblo relunctincly walked into her arms. Until they got outside, Fae noticed how restless the owl/wolf became and let her go to fly around in the night sky. And she flew and swooped and chased little air bugs all the way home.

Alyosha had asked her to help with his work re-making their apartments. He appeared to have taken everything from the main living quarters and had stripped one side wall down. There apepared to be a very large hole in the side of the wall... Eep!

Acia looked at the wall, eyes wide. When had this appeared?

In front of his door:

>> Checking several times to make sure that absolutely positively no one was around she crept up to the door to Aly's apartment. There was no way she was getting caught unawares by this man again... especially now that her secret was revealed and he might torture her with extreme embarassment.

Carefully setting down the cake box in front of his door she was especially careful not to jar it. The strong smell of chocolate seeped out of the box's crevices and inside was a cake coated and cooked with cocoa.

He blinked at the cakebox, perring inside to see, to his delight, a wonderful and large cake. He grinned, licking his lips hungrily. He had eaten his fill of salty snacks but he had plenty of room for cake! Picking it up he opened the door to his apartment.

He walked back into the room to see Acia standing there. It had been a while since he had had some time to spend with her and she him, such a difference from when she was a child and contstantly clung to his leg.

She was standing, mouth agape, looking at the wall he had broken through. "Ahh.. I see you saw where I've started.." he grinned walking over to lightly muss her pale hair. "Had breakfast?" he asked her, knowing her had cought her before she got up.

"O_O yes... I .. see it.. wh.." she was interrupted by his question. "Uhm no, I haven't had anything to eat yet" she grinned, patting her lightly grumbling stomach.
PostPosted: Sun Mar 13, 2005 2:12 pm



Alyosha nodded and headed towards the kitchen. "Then... you scan outside that hole! I'm planning to knock it completely through once we.. well you, create the extra space on the other side. It'll need support, you see, so I don't want to take out the wall completely yet.."

He walked into the kitchen, placing the cake box down and looked around for food. There hadn't been juice but there was plenty of milk, so he filled a glass. He pulled out a frying pan, stoking the always-burning aga and adding some wood to it the placing the pan on the stove above it. He shut over the heavy cast iron door of the cooker and had a look for some eggs whilst the pan was heating up.

Having found them, he cracked them into the pan, watching as their whites sizzled quickly opaque, their yolks slower to change. He had made some bread a few days previously, it shouldn't be mouldy yet, maybe just a bit dry. He cut a few slices onto a plate and flipped the now cooked eggs onto them. Picking up the plate and glass of milk he walked back through to the main room, watching Acia for a moment as, in concentration, her delicate little face was very serious looking.

The structure would have to be strengthened, yes, but if they left a little of the wall and made a doorway by slightly widening a hole then that would be fine. He hands ran over the mudbrick walls. they had been crafted by herself when she was old enough and when she and Alyosha tired of the smaller rooms in the main part of the centre. It was mud based but contained high levels of silica quartz and minute metal particles which she had brought up from the earth. this was a hard, sturdy wall and she knew it's structure well. She guessed this was why Alyosha had asked for her to add this extention. That and he wasn't very good at building himself.

She giggled a little, then stopped short when she turned to find him looking at her. His warm smile made her feel happy and the plate of eggs which she could smell made her even happier. She leapt to her feet, heading over to Alyosha, and took the plate as he offered her it. Sitting down on the floor, on a large comfortable grey cushion which hse was sure hadn't been there before, she munched the eggs and bread, explaining with her mouth full what she would do.

He listened intently, he had to otherwise he might not have made out what she was saying through her egg and bread. He thought about the doorway and agreed this would be a better idea than having a fully open plan area, it'd maybe allow him some private space, especially now that Alli was going to be sharing with Acia and not needing this space.

Alyosha took Acias plate from her, heading to the kitchen to wash up whilst she did her thing.

Acia had brought down her staff. She took a hold of it, from where it lay, propped up against the wall near the ladder, and climbed none-too-genteely through the hole. She stood on the ground solidly, her toes pressing into the sandy soil, claws pressing out into it and then retracting. She gathered herself, her staff out before her and quietly moved within her mind to find the neccessary minerals. Within a few moments walls began to coalesce out of the ground, growing up into a dome around her. They then flattened and strengthened, the dome becoming more rectangular. She let one wall mostly dissolve away, the sediments from it flowing upwards to help the building of the upper level.

She took a few deep breaths before continuing, the minerals now flowing over the lower room to create a room which would ajoin to her current one. She only added a small volume to the room as it was quite large already. It was, for now, just cavity to the side of her room. Feeling that the structure was sound she slowly dissolved away the wall, making the room larger. She laughed a little as she heard Alli, who was still upstairs, gasping loudly. The sediments from the absorbed wall pushed through to the outside, through walls rippling like water and then piled on the room of the room she was currently in.

Nearly done, she walked over to the "hole" and placed one free hand on it, staff still held in the other. As if she was sculpting she pushed the sides of it out and created a thick, solid doorway, big enough to accomodate even tall beings like Alyosha and Rahujo. Finished she walked through it, staggered over to the table and plopped back down onto the cushion. she was exhausted but it wasn't the kind of work which could be done a little bit at a time.

Alyosha walked back through with three large glasses of milk, placing them on the table and then returned to the kitchen to pick up the three large slices of chocolate cake he had cut. He slid down comfortably to the floor, leaning his elbows onto the table and called, loudly, for Alli.

Acia looked exhausted but she'd soon come round, especially is cake was involved.

Acia's eyes lit up as she smelled the cake and became huge as the slab of chocolate cake was placed before her. She sat bolt upright, fatigue waning, and grabbed for the cake as Alli climbed down the ladder. She took a large bit, accompanying it with a gulp of milk. Heaven!

Alli came down the ladder slowly but steadily, her little pink wings fluttering. She was still slightly unsure of Alyosha but his smile made her grin and she walked over to the table, kneeling down beside her. She hadn't had cake in almost forever and the sweet smell of it made her mouth water. She looked at Alyosha dn then at the cake as if needing assureance that it was for her. With his nod she began to pick bite-sized chunks from it and eat them happily. she wasn't too keen on the milk though and eyed it with the wary suspicion of a child towards anything which may possibly be considered good for them
