((now, as I saw that very picture on Neko's screen last night, I think you're less confused than I. Curiouser.))
Reeve grins. "Warms the soul, dunnit?"

(~ Curiouser? ~)
Alice looked over to then man at the stove, admiring his long black hair. She smiled and nodded happily. "Yes please, it would be very appreciated." She then looked to Reeve again before looking back to her soup and sipping away at the hot contents.

Reeve shakes his head.
"No tea for me, thanks. Cocoa was enough."

-=Neko nods and turns around to put his hand on the kettle as it started to boil. He poured the tea into two mugs, and dipped the tea leaves in, letting them sit before pulling them out and tossing them into the trash. He handed one mug to Alice, and kept the other one as he leaned against the counter, brushing the hair from his face, tucking it behind his ears=-
So, what brings you here?

Alice had finished most of her soup as she mopped up the rest of the contents with the toast until both, every ounce of soup and the toast were demolished. She smiled happily, loving the feel of a full stomach again. She looked up at the man, still smiling. She was not used to being treated so well. "Uhh... my father left me a letter. He had been to this place in the past, and the letter had directions here." She slipped the letter from a pocket of the holster of her sword, then handed it the the black haired man.

Reeve stands stiffly to attention and heads for the door. Neko had this. After all, it was girl Reeve had been talking to.

(~ I like the name. *Smiles.* ~)
Alice watched Reeve walk out as she frowned and looked out of the kitchen at him. She had only gotten used to his presence, and since he left she was feeling a bit nervous. "Hey, Reeve. Where are you going?" She asked, hoping he would come back.

"Just letting Neko there do his job, that I am."
He leans against a wall in the main room.

Wolven Clow#2 Clow's door creaked open slowly, as his head poked out and looked around the slightly dark hallway. Then smiling some, he sneaked out, and tiptoed along the hallway down to Nami's room. Looking back and forth quietly, he opened her door slowly and managed to get inside, undetected. It was dark in there, and with his own well being, he had an idea. Raising a hand in a fist, he let it open really quick letting a small flame of fire, reside in it, just so he could make it to her bed. Approaching it, he kneeled at the bedside, and let his hand close over the flame eating it.
"Hey sweetheart..."
He whispered softly to her, even though she was sleeping. He rose a hand to her forehead, and felt that it was hot. Maybe she WAS getting sick...
"I overheard, from my room...that you were coming down with something. And you're really hot..."
Getting slightly worried, he took her hand into his, and rubbed the back of it, with his thumbs, turning so his back was against the side of the bed, and then he closed his eyes.
"Well...I hope you'll be okay. I'm not leaving your side like the last time you were sick."
The last time she was sick, was when they were still at the village, and Clow ended up having to go on a Jounin-Rank Mission, while her and...Hide...were still Chuunins, on the verge of becoming Jounins. But Clow had been a Jounin for 2 months already.
"Nope...I'm not leaving."
He smiled, and rested his head against her arm now, still holding her hand in his, and eventually nodded off back to sleep, against the side of her bed, in a sitting position. With no window in the small room, Nami wasn't able to tell what time it was as feeling slowly returned to her body. She had the vague impressions of a comforting warmth and soothing voice but she was having trouble sorting out her thoughts properly. She cracked open heavy eyes and started to shift but she felt a soft pressure against her leg. When she tried to investigate she realized her hand was clutched in that of another. One look revealed a familiar mop of red hair, attached to a similarly familiar body. She smiled faintly.
" I didn't even hear you come in..." She said quietly, extracating herself from the blankets. She grasped his shoulder and shook him lightly. He didn't wake. A sigh escaped her lips as she dis-entangled her hand. She needed food. Her stomach was trying eat itself out of desperation, or at least it felt that way.
Before leaving, she eased him onto his side-not having the strength at the moment to lift him onto the bed. A quick kiss to his cheek and she slipped a silk robe over her pajamas before shuffling out of the bedroom and on her way to the kitchen.

-=Neko takes the letter and opens it, looking it over a few times=-
So, you're Alice, then? I'm Neko...

Alice looked down in thought. She then looked out at Reeve again, barely being able to see him. She sighed and stood up slowly, putting a hand against the wall as she walked over to the kitchen door. "But... I enjoy your company too, Reeve." She said with a nervous smile. She did not want to be alone with this other man. Reeve was the only one she could fully trust right now. She then looked back to Neko and bowed to him respectfully. "I supposed you know my father then?" She asked, not wanting to say his name. She was afraid to at this point.
(~ Edited for Neko! ~)

This feels almost sickeningly familiar to Reeve as he walks back into the kitchen, flashing a smile and half-second-longer-than-usual glance at Nami.
"Well, I'm still here, that I am."
