Daiki nodded in agreement and let out a playful his to the boy. It wasn't to terrify him, just to give him a little jump and hopefully send him on his way. He clung tighter to Silent as if in competition of the smaller boy and arched an eyebrow.
Caradoc laughed as he watched them, "My name's Caradoc, the living robot!" He introduced, waving to the young cat boy. "You're Kaden, right? Miss River speaks very fondly of you all the time."

Kaden Gave an Angry face to Silent, for what Daiki was doing and then turned his attention back to Caradoc with a smile. "Oh?" His cheeks slipped a shade to pale pink and he twidled his fingers for a moment. " Yeah! I'm Kaden.." He noded happily to the man. "Living? Robot? You don't look like one." He thought aloud scanning him again where he was, Kaden felt small he always felt small being short. Darn this sucked he realized how small he truly was. "My Toto-san is wonderful! She said , she said, she was going to introduce me to other little kids to makes friends!..." Kaden saddened a bit with his smile, "But I have friends already they would be sad if I just left them alone in her room.." Kaden pointed out to him like he knew what he was talking about.
Silent sighed and giggled, Daiki took Kaden seriously, and it was just as well because Kaden could get a little clingy she's seen it. " Oh, Daiki-kun it's alright.." She cooed to him watching Kaden out of the cornner of her eye. "Then again I've seen him stick to River like glue. I don't know how she does it..." Silent sighed shaking her head she really didn't understand it and didn't want to come to think of it. I mean this was River she was talking about a person who has a room she can't Even enter.

Caradoc nodded, extending his third arm, the utility arm. "Does this look a little more... robot-y to you?" He asked, flicking out the swiss army knife-like appendage. He was very careful to keep his balance so as not to land on top of Ever accidentally.
Daiki released her a little, then blushed. "I-I know..." He murmured, scratching the back of his head with a nervous smile. "I guess I am being a little silly about it."

Kaden twitched and stared his one eye scanning the utility are with confusion. "I don't.." He looked back at Caradoc and bit his lip. That was a little..Strange and he couldn't help but want to feel it, touch it to make sure it was real so he did. extending his arm out just before he touched it Silent grabbed his hand and pulled it back, eyeing him in a funny manner. Surely he was confused at her suddenly, passing a weak glare at her. "What?" He asked the woman who had a panicked face on sighing she was holding her breath.
Silent with all her might tried to withhold herself but if kaden was doing what she though he was going to hurt himself. Meaning to or not he must of not realize it was an Army knife. "Kaden You can't touch that, You hear me?" Silents voice was scarily stern as she Directed her attention to the boy. " You can hurt yourself with it, as innocent as the object seems, you understand? So don't.." Silents hand let go of Kadens and the small boy had a hurt expression rubbing his eyes that he was still glaring at her with. The smile at replaced the sudden worry and anger was a strange reaction to his silent understanding. "..Sorry...Daiki, didn't mean to jerk away like that.." She murmured to him with a calm expression smiling brightly at him.

Daiki shook his head, "It's okay! I don't mind."
Caradoc winced, however. He knew it wasn't an assault to him, but it brought up awful memories. So many time's he'd heard 'Don't touch that!' from the lips of a terrified mother, drawing her child away. He remembered being beaten in the street, one arm torn almost clean off so that all people were staring at were the mangled wires that used to hold his arm to his body. He heard that very same thing as he attempted to reach out for help with what was left of his other arm, nearly just as mangled. He was almost dead by the time Trian rescued him. Two months after that, he was repaired and had fled the village...
Caradoc got down from the couch and retracted his utility arm. "I-I'm sorry. I won't hurt him... I just thought it would be cool..." He shrugged before walking quickly towards the kitchen, shaking.

Silent blinked, was he alright? was that wrong? "Hey Cara-" She was cut quick of her words as Kaden cried out to him.
"Hey wait! Come back!" Kaden yelled after him glaring again at Silent who just drew back and blinked watching him, stepping back. " Kaden, I don't think River would like it if.."Again he cut her off though this time it hurt, badly to be spoken to by a child like that and she held herself.
"Shut up!" He snapped at her, he was small but knew just the way with words, "You hurt his feelings! Shut up! Obasan, You hurt his feeelings!" Kaden stressed running after Caradoc with a small smile. "Hey! Hey, Wait a minute I think it's cool come back!" Kaden reached out an arm to his retreating form, though he was running it still seemed like a long ways away. " hehe, Are you okay?" Kaden asked finally catching up to the Robot man. They where entering the Kitchen and he found it fit to talk to the robot man. He was out of breath he didn't expect that. It kind of hurt his feelings as well- what was wrong with her? He wanted to see, touch, how was that going to hurt him?
Silent was quiet on watching him go and took her inhaler into her hands again, smiling faintly at Daiki. " Um, Well, I suppose I should go." She didn't mean to hurt his feelings maybe she shouldn't of been thinking how she was. Concidering he could of hurt himself even if Caradoc wasn't going to let him. It was Kaden she was thinking of, and what River would do to her if she found out about the mishappenings that could of happened. " Heh- Yeah?..Sorry Daiki-kun.." She said waving a nervous hand walking towards the stairs.

Daiki just blinked at the scene, beginning to remember why he stayed under his bed all the time. People were sometimes weird when it came to emotions. "I-I'll come with you. There's not much I can do down here." He said, following her up.
((Running out of ideas for Daiki right now, anyway.))
Caradoc leaned against the bar, clutching the edge so tightly, he felt the molding snap under his fingertips. He gasped and let go instantly, just as his eyes fell on Kaden. "I'm all right." He assured the boy as he knelt down to his level. "I just had a bad memory, that's all. I didn't want to break down in front of everyone." He explained, not really telling all the truth.

Kadens face Twisted in thought, he had heard of this memory thing from River. Not quite getting how much they affected people but he could try for The Robots sake. "Hmm, That's silly. " Kaden said tapping his chin in thought watching him, letting the blue in his right eye Waltz across Caradoc's face, he couldn't tell the truth from a lie no but he knew something just didn't fit right- he ignored it. "Niisan..." He murmured to himself. "Can I call you Niisan? Do you know what it means?" Kaden asked the robot man in a hopeful manner, he'd tell him what it meant in a moment. Just wanted him to agree to it first.
Silent nodded, and was fast approching The room she shared with the Snake. Opening the door she paused- something was. "Where's sha?" She asked herself walking into the room colapsing onto the bed with a frustrated sigh. She'd forget about it for now- yeah she would.

Daiki scratched his head. Come to think of it, he didn't remember seeing him today. "I'm sure he's just out, somewhere." He suggested, sliding over and stroking back Silent's hair.
Caradoc nodded. "Sure!" He said happily, extending his utility arm again. This time with all sharp objects away so just the three fingers were accessible. "Niisan or oniisan is the Japanese term for 'older brother'. It can also be used in terms of referring to a young man older than the speaker." He blushed and smacked his forehead, "Oh! I dictionary-ed again!" he cried bashfully. He hated when he recited things automatically like... well, a robot.

Kaden took the small utility hand and fiddled with it, "Oh!, Aniki is better!" Kaden chirped, "Like One's Senior! Or Elder brother!" He giggled at Caradoc's knowlage of things, atleast he didn't have to explain everything. " Yup! But I like Aniki better! It makes more sense! This thing is cool.." Kaden murmured as an after thought looking at it. "So what else does it do? I mean, I mean It must be so weird having this thing, oh! do you feel sensations?" Kaden asked, being the Seven year old that he was- he was compelled to feel bigger so he used the word sensation to put out that he wasn't completely stupid.
"That's what I'm worried about." Silent chuckled softly her mohawk was flopped to the side so, her hair wasn't a big deal when it came to getting in the way or anything, but just having someone touch her hair was nice and relaxing enough. " I am troubled, Daiki. But I can't put my finger on it.." She said pokeing his nose softly.

Daiki scrunched his nose, "Well, you can certainly put your finger on my nose quite fine." He teased, then looked around the room. "Let's get some rest. If he's not back by morning, we can go look for him." He suggested, looking to his under the bed nest in longing.
Caradoc flexed the mechanical fingers and slowly extended the other tools. "It can cut, slice, sodder, tighten, loosen, sew, and tons of other fun stuff. It even has a lighter!" He boasted, holding it out slowly so he didn't hurt himself.

"Of course I can! I'm not blind." She cooed turning over to slid off the bed. "Alright, alright lets get some rest then." She waited for him to enter before going under the bed herself, this was just another day- and tomorrow would be better. She wanted to keep telling herself that but you never knew these days.
Kaden bounced happily looking at it with a wide curious eye. "That is so Crazy!" Kaden said gripping his hair in his fingers, the black spikes on his head moving a little in the ducktail way they furrowed back his hair seemed to have no Gravity around it keeping it strait out of his head like that. His bangs fell forward as he leaned forward to look closer at it," Aniki, it doesn't hurt or nothing?" He asked him in a testing manner poking one of the tools with awe.

Kai walked downstairs in his pajamas and to the fridge to get a bottle of chocolate milk. He sat down on the bar and drank down milk.
((Oh no...I got the Bleach bug...O_O ))

Daiki climbed under the bed and snuggled down into the covers with a content sigh. It was nice being himself again. He'd lost almost an entire day of sleep because of that. It was no wonder that almost the instant he hit the covers, he fell asleep.
Caradoc shook his head, "Nope. Doesn't hurt at all." he said, clamping his hand down on the cool metal. "I can't feel anything in this one, but I can feel stuff in these two." He explained wiggling his flesh fingers happily.
