Welcome to Gaia! ::

Riordan was caught off guard by the onslaught of accusations being thrown around. By children no less. "Hey, now," He said quieting everyone. "I'm sure Vasilisa doesn't dislike Loa. She just isn't used to being around beastials as much as the rest of us." he looked to Vasilisa, "Right?" He said, hoping to allow everyone to save face.

Kailey smiled at the blind boy. "Oh, did I ever say that I minded. I usually prefer to top, but for a cutie like you I might make an exception." the stood up and looked to Sophie, "And what kind of arrangement? I like to pay back kindness. Oh, and could I trouble you to help me put this stuff on? It was hard to wrap my knee and ankle without bending them too much. Unwrapping and putting this stuff on would probably prove just as difficult."

"Allow me to appologize for my children, miss. I am Tony Morino, and this is my lovely wife, Melody. Our two littleest have become fond of Loa." He loked at little Alicea and Kyle Alexander, "I'm sure Prince Riordan is right. It may simply be an odd feeling since she's unused to bestials."

Alicea shrugged, "Okay then." she smiled, content with that answer, "It's allright, Owen. That's my little broder. His name Kyle Alexander, and he talks soft, so its easy ta not get him...that's what big brother says, anyways. His name's Benjamin. And that's my sissy Rose by your brother. I hope I'm as pretty as her when I grow up. Then I'll be the prettiest princess ever." she smiled, "Ohh, know what would be fun? Let's pretend to get married in the garden!" she grinned, back to her stuborn ways.

Kyle Alexander kept hold of Loa, "It that true Loa?" he asked, "The ugly bad man before hurt you...I don't want her to hurt you too." his voice got quieter as he spoke of Demitri, a pout going on his face as he thought of it. "SSorry I yelled bafore...." he mumbled, looking away shyly.

Rose looked on her family, giggling despite herself. She couldn't help it. It was either laugh or go crazy...she may have done both, she wasn't sure. "Well, Riordan...you gotta admit...my family will definately make the noble class a lot more interesting now." she smiled. She knew she shouldn't...knew that now was the worst time, but how could she not with all of the things that came about in one day from the two smallest of their family...not to mention Banjamin still covered in soot watching from the sideline to try not getting everything dirty and wondering if he should go back to his master or not. It was so outragous how much they had done that it was laughable.

"So..you like Loa then...?" Kyle Alexander asked, confused, "Then why you get that look on your face when you by her...like a bully that pulls my sissy's pig tails?" he asked.

"Oh, thank goodness." Rose sighed in relief, "I'm fine with just my first and last then. I'm sure with a family like mine, Murino is more than enough to know the family name." she giggled again, refering to her family.

Benjamin kept starring at Vesilista...she was so...beautiful. All at once, he wished he wasn't covered in soot so he could kiss her hand like a true gentalman...maybe he could make something for her...but what...? "Uh...hello." he waved from about five feet back, "My name is Benjamin Mureno...I hope you will forgive my appearance. I was working with the blacksmith." he admitted, looking away. e had never felt so...flustered before.


Shade's whole face became like a tomato, "Miss, I mean no disrespect, but we berely know eachother...I do not yet even know your name, nor do you know mine. To think that I would take to bed someone that I do not even know...or love, again, not to be rude, but it is immposible to love one I do not know...would be beyond rude...It would break my code as a gentalman." he stated, "I do appologize for my actions, and if you wish, I can try to help with your...ankle, did you say? I will not, however, take you to bed this day."
(Edited!)

Owen glanced at Alicea and nods. "Still, I apologize for misunderstanding." Owen glanced over at Rose, then at Alicea. "Whyever would you need to wait until you're grown up to be as pretty as her? You are right now." He chuckled at her statement. "If that's what would make you happy."

Loa glanced down at Kyle Alexander, touched to see how much he cared about her. "They did not hurt me, Kyle Alexander. I am perfectly alright." Loa smiled gently, her soft spot for children evident. "Do not worry about yelling. Many times it is necessary. I am proud of you for speaking up." Loa glanced at Benjamin as he stared at Vasilisia, and she straightened and offered him a handkerchief. "If I might offer you a handkerchief, milord?"

Alicea's smile seemed to extend beyond her face, "You think so? Rewy?" she hugged Owen before letting go with a happy bounce, "You are the bestest bofriend in the whole wide world! I can't wait to practice getting married! And I know we be together just like Roden and Loa will be cuz a prince always deserves his pwincess." Alcea grinned.

Rose wondered what her older, protective brother would do with all this attention. Benjamin didn't ofen have many girls talking to him at once. Ecspecially covered in soot as he was.

Benjamin's heart skipped a beat, "Yeah? You're right! I've had a few people point out how I can stop now that I'm noble class, but your the first who isn' my family to get that I don't want to. I mean, I love it! Being with my master, and learning how to get the firse just right to melt the steel, and working the steel just right and...everything." If there was one ting Benjamin was passionate about, it was his craft. He blushedd a little, "I don't think a hankercheif will get all THIS off me, Loa...but thanks." When Vasilisa offered him one as well, he took hers without noticing he did, "Thanks...If you'd like...I can wash it...and give it back..." he stammered.or treasure it always if I get to keep it...

Owen blinked a bit. Boyfriend? We only just met... How do I recover. "Let's stay friends until we're older and I can court you in earnest, as a princess like you deserves." Owen kissed her hand again, and glanced at his brother. Owen was worried he was going too far with all this. He wasn't lying, and she really was pretty, but it was weird to be moving so fast.

Loa smiled softly when he thanked her, and nodded, but then noticed him take Vasilisa's right away. She rolled her eyes a bit, stepped away, and shrugged to herself. Vasilisa is pretty.. and noble. Makes sense he'd take hers. When Riordan spoke of them leaving, Loa offered her arm to Kyle Alexander. "Would you kindly escort me, young sir?"

"Why? Mama ays that you can always have a boyfriend. And your a boy, and your my friend...and we WILL be getting amarried some day, so why can't I call you m boyfriend?" Alicea tilted her head confused as they walked. Owne did everthing a boyfriend did...talked to her without using the horrid cootie word...held her hand...even KISSED her hand...so didn't that mean he wanted to be a boyfriend?

Thank you, Riordan." Rose smiled, not even noticing the fimaliarity she used. When she saw Loa's eyes out of the courner of her eye, she laughed, "My brother got a crush is all. Has nothing to do with yours and hers...I think it's funny, and I'm glad it's not on you...considering you already have my little brother having a crush on you." she motioned to Kyle Alexander who still clung to Loa like a little lost puppy wanting her as his owner.

"Uh, thanks" Benjamin smiled, already thinking of places to put this new found treadsure...the first gift he had ever recieved from a pretty girl...a beautiful girl... "And I'm can't help but be a bit nervous around here...this is all so new to me...the rest of my family will do alright with being noble...I can't see how I fit in in this kind of place...all soot faced and all." He rubbed some soot off with little avail, smearing more than anything, "If you would like, I could escort you to the garden..." he motioned, trying to clear the soot off of his hands as well.

"Yes, I would l-love too, miss Loa." Kyle Alexander smiled, his heart jumping for joy in his cheast...he like loa lots, and now he could hold her hand like a real gentalman and make his daddy proud. He took her handgentally, kidssing it like he saw Owen do to Alicea...it made sissy happy, so why not Loa?

Owen blinked a bit, then shrugged. Why not. "Alright, but as I'm a prince, why don't we use the term suitor instead?" He smiled at her. "It makes us sound more noble." Owen walked behind his brother, escorting Alicea as well. "What are your favorite flowers?" He glanced at her. "I bet they're pink."

Loa smiled sweetly when he kissed her hand, touched. "Thank you." Loa held his hand as well, and gestured for Ben and Vali to go ahead of them.
