Welcome to Gaia! ::

"You're referring to the fact that you have gone Oozaru recently I guess?" Yes, yes, he knew, but unlike in the past when he always kept his eyes on the Orion, he just used simple deduction this time. The forest was shot to hell, there were definitely distinct paw prints, large though they were, on the ground, and Jade's tail was missing. He didn't specifically see that it was missing, since she was behind the counter and all, but he didn't need his eyes for vision so it amounted to nought.

Assuming no one was playing a sick joke - and seriously who would - her tail was gone as a necessity, which meant she was on a rampage as a wild beast.

"Sounds to me like you need a new trainer is all," he said mostly under his breath. Jade trained all the time he knew. He could feel the rising power within her, but as close as she was getting, it seemed to him at least that she was still largely lacking something and a giant number wasn't it. All the ingredients were there, but they haven't yet been mixed. He was likely better trimming off any excess at the end. Besides he couldn't really supervise her with the way his life was going as of late. She'd be gone from home way too long, though he would love the company. He couldn't do that to her though.

"Style, strength, experience. This planet is way too calm. You'll need a bit more chaos....talk to User when your tail grows back."

Jade nodded and took another sip from her can of soda, leaning forwards onto the bar top, resting on her elbows. She rested her weight on her left leg, and curled her right behind it slightly. The girl didn't need to speak, knowing Keno would continue anyways. Still, even though he had spoken softly, the girls ears picked up on his words.

A new trainer...... The though resonated in her mind. She had trained herself almost her entire life, without any to give her advice or to help. It was perhaps one of the few Saiya-jin aspects in her, the unwillingness to ask for help from others in matters of training. She wanted to get stonger on her own, but she was going no further now in terms of ability, only strength.

A slow smirk crossed her face. "Chaos....interesting....."

She looked up from her soda. Maybe she wouldn't have to wait to talk to User when her tail grew back.

"...How much longer are you going to be around, before you vanish again...?"

Her eyes shifted over to Soneko, a guilty look on her face for not having paid him much attention. Perhaps another time she'd get to know him more. "Goodnight Soneko, pleasant journey."

Jade stood up straight again, and picking up her can of soda, hopped over the bar counter easily, landing as light as a feather despite her heavy boots. Now she walked over to Keno, put her soda down on the table next to his accesories, and wrapped her arms around him in a hug. If he wasn't going to get up and give her one, she sure as hell would do it herself. No way was he leaving without a hug!

"Because I miss you Nii-chan....it's not very often anymore I get to see the brother that isn't out to torment and likely kill me...."

She rolled her eyes a little at the thought of Caine, and continued on. He was the one after all who drew out into the full moonlight....

"Besides....I think I've got someone who wants to meet you. But I told her to wait until the next time you come around...she's rather...interesting..."

((*noddles* Mmkee Nii-chan. xD I'll probably buzz out on my next post....sleepy-tired. >w<))

Jade hugged Keno back whole-heartedly. He was the closest thing to family she had that cared about her. User was like a close best friend/ brother, and Deity was her boyfriend and more. Keno was the one she could really and truely call 'brother' and she was all the more thankful for him.

"Well, you might have met her on occasion, I can't remember clearly. But she's one to learn about someone first, before introducing herself. Like I said, she's interesting. But that'll wait until the next time you come home."

She stressed the word 'home' a little. Despite every wrong he'd done, or where he might run off to, Jade still considered the club Keno's home. After all, Ichigo was still here, and Jade knew he wouldn't leave the young foxling behind for long.

Finally, Jade stepped back a little from Keno, a sad sort of smile on her face.

"I've got to get goin' Nii-chan, to clean up and rest for the new tomorrow. Take care of yourself Keno, or else I'll have to find you and knock some sense into your head."

She laughed a little and leaned forwards, planting a light kiss on his cheek in her sisterly way.

"Stop by or drop us a letter when you can....we worry you know....."

With that she backed away from him, picking up her soda and stepping towards the central shaft, pressing the call button for the elevator. She smiled at him with a small wave.

"Ja, matei, Nii-chan." And with that, the doors opened and she stepped into the pod, rising up to the top of the tower to a much needed shower.

((Goodnight Keno, it was great seeing you again. >w< *huggles* Come by more often if you can, or at least drop a line once in a while. ^w^ Let us know you're alive! xD Bye bye!!
*leaps into her Lair for the night and much needed sleep*))

He sat in silence for a while after that. Undisturbed and completely untamed silence. At least two people here still called Orion his home. That was something right? Maybe he would just end up being the black sheep. Amazingly he realized was the fact that Taliman had even behaved better on Earth than Keno. The irony of that situation wasn't beyond him, but at the same time so what? Taliman would probably only care about Earth so much as it was a threat to him, and the fact of the matter was this planet was nothing.

Keno however saw the earth and the humans for what they were. That reminded him of the thing he had to do, but only for a moment. As Jade was going off, he kind of felt lonely again. So distant she seemed, but of course he wouldn't show it. Instead he would smile and wave with his right arm as he rubbed his kissed cheek with the left.

"Oyasuminasai." What more fitting to say than 'good night?' Nothing else came to mind. Besides, as much as he worried about her and the others, he was glad to know some of them worried about him as well. Still though, he couldn't help but feel a bit worthless. They were able to deal with Jade as an Oozaru without his help at all, and from what he could discern there were no casualties or severe injuries. He was proud of them yes, but it really only meant that his absences wouldn't hinder them, which meant he could very well disappear sooner or later without consequence on their health.

Bittersweet is what it was. He wanted them stronger and dammit that's exactly what they went and did. The only person having any real issues at the moment was Unks, and thankfully his Dark Side was about at threatening as buttered toast lately. User and he still had some matters to settle, but they could wait. User should have left by now anyway. There was no other reason for him to sit around this place.

He sat in silent contemplation for who knows how long. He thought about his friends, his lover, his sisters, their children or their nephews and nieces. He thought about how he was not really a part of any of those families and at the same time probably the one thing they all revered, the one thing they all had in common. If he disappeared, would they even talk? Some of them would for sure. As the children grew older, they'd likely draw their parents closer, but what sort of relationship would there be? Would it be the same or....

((Last night was fun...But I need another one. XD))

((I really do.))
