Alice looked up slightly when he told her to basically be more careful, and try to stop it next time. “I’m sorry.” she whispered again before feeling his hand on her head, patting it. She couldn’t help but feel as if she was being treated like a child. Without even thinking she suddenly hit his hand away, trying not to get to angry. “I’m not a child. Please don’t treat me as such!” she said before turning her back to him. She knew it wasn’t his fault since he was new to this world, but she couldn’t help seeing it as him treating her as if she, will still a child. She then started walking out the front door the manor, wanting to go into town with or without him now.
Hitome watched him as she stood there, suddenly feeling Kaine wrap his arm around her waist. She couldn’t help but smile as she looked up at Kaine, glad he was there with her. “Well I’d just see him to make sure you weren’t sick. I’m sure Marcus would be worried sick if you actually were.” she stated as she looked over to Charlotte. “I’m alright….” She whispered softly, looking back over to Seth. “I was actually coming to look for you and Marcus. I’d like to talk to you both.” she said softly, all fear gone from her now.
Seth smiled slightly when they said they were fine. “Well that is good.” he said as he stood there, a little uneasy to be around Hitome, Charlotte, and Kaine. He knew very well that he probably wouldn’t be forgiven for his past crimes, but it was always worth a shot in trying. “Okay. I’d also like to talk to you and Marcus as well. Charlotte you are welcome to join us if you like.” he said to her, giving a kind of sad smile.

Kaden shook his head and was about to say something when she suddenly slapped his hand away he blinked since she seemed rather angry to him. He didn't even know that was something done to children, he thought it was just a sign or reassurance, but that was definatly a mistake he would try not to make again. "I-....I'm sorry" he said looking towards his feet like a kicked puppy, he didn't mean to treat her like a child, and he didnt want her mad at him. Looking up he found that she was already heading out the front door, he didn't know what to do or even if she wanted to be around him anymore, but if she didnt want to then she would have to honestly tell him seeing as he began following her, not sure of what else to do much like a lost puppy.
Kaine returned her smile with one of his own shifting his attention when she mentioned the doctor to the other woman once more before lightly placing a kiss atop Hitomes head, really seeing how caring she was he couldnt help it, and he wanted to give her all the assurance she needed.
Charlotte could tell even with Seth's smile he was slightly uncomfortable with the group, though she couldn't quite blame him, she was told about what he had done and knew Marcus was rather aggitated with him but she could smell her son on him, and she knew her son didn't deal with certain people, and she knew people could change so as long as he could prove that she had to grudge with him. Stil seeing that sad smile of his she shrugged "I'm game" she said adding quickly "Don't worry about Marcus, I won't let the loose cannon do anything" she assured him, he wanted to talk so she would make sure he could

Alice slowly turned her head, looking back at him from the corner or her eye. She could tell by the look on his face that she had done something wrong. She then let out a slight sigh as she quickly came to a stop, turning to face him. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to snap at you.” she said softly, looking at him with an apologetic look on her face. “I’m just used to people treating me like a child, even though I am older than them.” she said softly, slowly looking to the ground. “So how about while we are in town……you can observe how people treat each other. If you are confused on anything…please don’t hesitate to ask me.” she said softly, smiling slightly as she looked up at him.
Hitome smiled softly as she leaned against Kaine, glad he was there. She then looked around for a moment, trying to figure out where Marcus was. “Didn’t Marcus take someone to go see the doctor?” she asked softly, looking over to Charlotte.
Seth watched them, nodding slightly when Charlotte mentioned that she was game and would help keep Marcus calm. “Just don’t get yourself hurt.” he said softly, smiling softly.

Kaden almost walked into her when she suddenly stopped but managed to come to a halt himself, blinking slightly when she turned to him and apologised for snapping at him. Though when she suggested while in town he could observe others and then consult her on the things that confused him his face lit up with a smile though it fell after a moment and his brow furrowed "Would a hug be appropriate at this point in time?" he asked, not wanting to do anything that could insult her again.
Kaine smiled slightly when he felt Hitome lean against him, glad she was indeed using him for support even if it was literally, and as well because she seemed to have relaxed from her initial fear, that was enough for him.
Charlotte nodded slightly at Hitome's question "Yup yup. So he's probubly talking to the woman to see what happened." she said moving to strech her arms out infront of her. "Oh don't worry about me hun" she said rather simply "He wouldn't lay a hand on me in that way, especially when theres a chance i'm pregnant" she said rather calmly.

Alice looked up at him, watching his face when it lit up. She couldn’t help but let out a slight giggle at it. Though when he asked her if a hug was appropriate at time like this, she blushed deeply. She then nodded slightly, slowly looking toward the ground. “….S-sure…” she whispered softly. To be honestly she couldn’t help but like it when she felt his arms around her, though it only happened once before when she almost fell. It felt as if they were the only people in the world, and she hadn’t felt that in such a long time.
Hitome smiled softly as she with a slight nod. She then took Kaine’s hand, pointing toward Rainick’s office. “Well then. Let’s get going!” she said softly with a smile, looking over at everyone.
Seth couldn’t help but smile slightly when she said that Marcus wouldn’t go after her, especially if there was a chance she was pregnant. “Well that is good.” he said softly, before hearing Hitome. He was actually happy to see that Hitome was happy, and moving on with her life. Which was more then he could say about himself.

Kaden only blinked once more in a slight state of confusion when she blushed at his question, at first he thought that meant no but she nodded and gave a light stutter for sure. Really the stutter was... cute, yeah that was the right word. Taking a step foreward he let his arms snake around her, bringing his chin to rest upon her shoulder for but a moment, making him hunch over a bit, giving a soft "Thank you" before moving to pull back
Kaine smiled slightly when she took his hand and pointed towards the office saying they should get going in a rather chipper manner "We're off to see the wizard" he said under his breath, just a playful little joke on how she said that quickly followed up by a light kiss to her forehead.
Charlotte nodded slightly, though she could tell he had something bothering him, still she couldn't help her curiousity "So... How is that son of mine?" she asked rather calmly, though she was a bit hezitant none the less, unsure if that would be her stepping on a land mine, but from what she was feeling from her son he was on a bit of an emotional rollercoaster as of late, she couldnt help but be a tad curious.

Luxa nodded, "Alright. It may be a tad more difficult, but I'll manage it." She smiled, "C'mon. We'll get started right away. First off, we'v got to take you into the lion's den."
Frost grimaced, "Oh, another one?" Then she smiled, cold and harsh, "Can we kill this one, this time? I'm getting bored with letting them walk free." She quickly wrapped her own wound, tightening the bandage with her teeth. Then she smirked and stood, "Well, let's go get 'em, sweetie."

Alice closed her eyes slightly when she watched him step closer to her, wrapping his arms around her. She then closed her eyes as she hugged him back, slowly taking his scent in. She then heard him tell her thank you, which made her slightly confused. She then opened her eyes when he pulled away, making her let him go. “Well then……let’s get going…” she said softly, still a little flustered from the hug. She then started walking down the path of the manor, heading toward town.
Hitome laughed slightly when she heard what Kaine said, then felt him kiss her forehead. She then moved behind Kaine and jumped onto his back, wrapping her arms around his neck. She in a playful mood now, actually wanted a playful piggyback ride. “Yes, we’re off to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of Taline Manor!” she said softly with a laugh, having changed it a bit. She then leaned forward, kissing Kaine of the cheek softly.
Seth looked at Chalotte for a moment, before slowly looking away. He had a sad and depressed look on his face. “Right now….he’s asleep.” he said, not daring to say anything more. He wanted to tell them what was going on between them but wanted to first get forgiveness for what he had done in the past.
Angel quickly looked at her, a confused look on her face. “Wait what? What do you mean Lion’s den?” she asked softly, so confused right now. She hoped she didn’t mean that we had to go see Rainick right now; she was so not ready for that.
Sakura sighed softly as she slowly came to a stop, leaning against a tree. “Really…..How much further can the manor be…” she said softly, looking up toward the sky. She then slowly started to climb the tree, hoping it was high enough to spot the manor through or over the trees.

Really, Kaden had to admit, having her in his arms, even if just for a moment felt.... right. Even it sounded odd to him but that was the only way he managed to think of it. "Agreed" he said with a light bob of his head walking now along side her insead of following.
Kaine chuckled slightly when she moved behind him and jumped onto his back to which he leaned foreward to a slight angle and let his hands hook under her legs. He only laughed a bit more when she sand it out, though changing 'wizard of oz' to 'wizard of taline manor'. "Quite a mouth full" he commented carrying her towards Rainicks office
Charlotte blinked when he looked to her and then slowly slid his gaze away. "Crap, stepped on a landmine didn't I" she muttered to herself. Though upon hearing his comment about Sevren being asleep she reflexivly arched a brow, pausing for a moment desiding that would be a question she wouldnt ask. Putting her hands behind her head she walked casually after Kaine and Hitome. "You know... I never really found the past to matter much, not something to be forgotten sure, somethign to learn from if anything but thats about it. The past doesnt always distinguish a person." she said rather casually as she walked "I just want my son happy" she said flashing a slight smile over her shoulder at him.

Alice smiled as they walked into the town, her hands at her side. Without even realizing it she had started to hum softly, a happy look on her face. It felt nice going into town for a change, having been either cooped up in the manor or out searching for her husband. Though when the thought of her husband came to mind a sad look came across her face, making her stop humming. She then just continued to walk beside Kaden in silence, hoping he might spark up a conversation with to help get her mind of sad thoughts.
Hitome giggled softly as she held onto him, placing her head next to his. “Oh course it is, but it’s funny.” she said softly with a smile. She then looked back at the others, seeing them in deep conversation. “Looks like Mrs. Charlotte found out that Seth and Sevren like each other….” she whispered softly into Kaine’s ear. She had hoped that would be something that Sevren would have told his parents later, but by the looks of things Charlotte seemed to be okay with it. But boy would Marcus flip when he found out, so she had to try and get Marcus to forgive Seth. That way Seth and Sevren could be happy together. Hitome sighed slightly as she nuzzled her head against Kaine’s, so happy to have him with her today.
Seth stood there for a moment, watching them walk toward Rainick’s office. He then heard what Charlotte said about how a past can’t really define someone, and how you could learn from your past mistakes. He smiled slightly as he started to walk behind them, hearing her mention that she wanted her son to be happy. A slight frown appeared on his face as he thought about what had happened recently. “I don’t know if I can make him happy.” he whispered softly, slowly looking toward the ground.

Kaden found himself observing her slightly as they walked seeing as she began to hum and looked rather happy, though soon enough the humming was halted and that said look crossed Alice's face his brow furrowed slightly, even if he wasn't too good at reading people or understanding what it was the little manerisms meant he at least knew that a sudden change like that wasn't much of a good thing at all, and talking about it probubly may make things worse. "How long have you been at the manor?" he said almost awkwardly, small talk wasnt his forte but attempting it seemed necissary to get that frown off her face
Kaine chuckled slightly and just nodded taking note of how she shifted, probubly to look back. Upon hearing her comment though it all clicked, why she suddenly wanted to talk with seth and Marcus. "Sweet silly girl" he tsked softly under his breath, she was making herself uncomfortable for the sake of others. "A mothers all seeing eyes" he joked softly humming slightly when she nuzzled her head against his.
Charlotte arched a brow now looking straight at Seth when he said he didn't know if he could make Sevren happy, her eyes almost asking if he was serious. "I have to fight my son for a simple hug that anti-affectionate little bugger" she said though her tone was slightly joking at her choice of words "Seeing as he got close enough to leave such a scent on you and the emotional rollercoaster he's been on as of late i think you can." she said rather calmly. "He reminds me alot of my own brother. The fool can't understand his own emotions too well" she tsked softly, though still there was that maternal undertone to her voice.

Alice was suddenly brought back to reality when he spoke, having been thinking about her soon to be husband who was soon to be her ex-husband. She looked up at him for a moment, a shaken look on her face. “Oh I’m sorry. I wasn’t really paying attention.” she said softly before looking ahead again, observing people. “I’ve lived there since I was old enough to leave an orphanage. That was so long ago though…..So many years have passed, to many to count actually.” she said softly, trying to make it as vague as she could since she was around humans. As they walked she could see loving couples everywhere, making her miss her husband even more though she knew she had to let him go. Not only did she not have a husband anymore, but she had lost a daughter and son as well. Tears slowly started to come to her eyes as she came to a stop, remembering everything. “I’m sorry….I just….” she said as she tried to fake a smile, whipping the tears away as they fell. Her emotions were all over the place today and she had no clue as to why. Maybe because this was the first time she had been out of her room to try and deal with the fact that she was alone, except for her daughter Sakura, who wasn’t even her real daughter by blood.
Hitome giggled softly when she heard what he said under his breath. “Of course I’m a sweat silly girl. I’m your sweat silly girl!” she said softly, again so only he could hear. She then kissed him on the cheek softly before looking back at the other two. “I can tell you have changed Seth. I’m sure you two will be happy.” she said back to him softly with a smile.
Seth looked at Charlotte for a moment before smirking slightly, listening to what she was saying. “I guess you have a point.” he said with a slight nod. He then looked up at Hitome as she spoke, a slight surprised look on his face. He had never expected to hear those words come out of her mouth. “Thank you.” he said softly as his face softened, glad to hear that Hitome had noticed he had changed.

Kaden couldnt help but let her brow furrow slightly when he realized she was spacing out so. Though when she finally did answer he just gave a light bob of his head, he could understand her vagueness, they were around humans after all, couldnt say anything to draw attention. Watchign the couples pass he frowned a bit, there were still a few things he just didnt understand about it all, why they insisted upon holding hands, the occasional kiss. What all was it to mean? Though his gaze shifted back to Alice when he noticed tears spilling from her eyes. He didn't quite know why but he lightly took hold of her hand and pulled her to the side, away from the public eye and moved to lightly swipe away a few tears "Why are you apologizing for crying?" he breathed.
Kaine smiled slightly slightly when Hitome refered to herself as 'his sweet silly girl' that really just brought a smile to his face, it was a good thing they were around others or he might have swept her off to his room once more. Even he was a bit suprised when Hitome said she could tell seth had changed, but really he was glad to see her baing able to move past it all and wanting the other to as well
Charlotte smiled slightly when he agreed but just felt like bugging him a bit "You guess?" she scoffed slightly shaking her head, though there was a slight smile on her face. "Mothers know best" she said trying to keep a serious tone though after a moment she just chuckled lightly "Always wanted to say that" she shook her head lightly before lightly patting him on the shoulder "Just don't push him too much too fast, okay?" she said calmly.

Alice gasped slightly when he took her hand, pulling her to the side and out of the public eye. She then looked up at him through her tears, feeling him wipe away a few. She then heard him ask why she was apologizing for crying. “I-I don’t know……I’m sorry…” she said softly, trying to stop crying. “I saw the couples and started to remember the family which I don’t have any more….” she whispered softly, still trying to wipe the tears from her face.
Seth couldn’t help but let out a slight chuckle at how Charlotte was acting. “Some mothers know best…..” he said softly, looking toward Hitome. He remembered how Hitome’s mom would treat her, and wanted to force her to marry someone who she didn’t truly love. He then sighed slightly before feeling the back of his hand brush against a wall as they turned into Rainick’s office. He flinched slightly, having forgotten the fact that both hands were bloody from when he tore up his room. “Damn….” he muttered slightly, looking down at them.
Hitome noticed that they were not going into Rainick’s office, making her look around slightly. It was then that she caught the scent of Seth’s blood, making her look over her shoulder. “What happened?” she asked softly slowly climbing off Kaine’s back. She then walked over to him, slowly reaching out to touch his hands but ended up stopping half way. “We’ll have to have Rainick look at that.” she said as she put her hand back to her side, looking away from him now. She may be ready to forgive him, seeing as how he’s changed, but the thought of ever touching him or being alone with him was far too soon.
Seth nodded slightly as he watched Hitome reach out for his hand, then pull away. “It’s alright. I’ll be fine.” he said before starting to slide his hand into his pockets, looking back over to Charlotte. “Don’t worry. I won’t push him.” he said softly, a serious look on his face.

Kaden just lightly wiped away a few more tears as she spoke, retracting his hand when she moved to rub them away on her own. "Don't apologize" he cooed frowning slightly when she said she was upset because it reminded her of the family she lost. Comforting others wasnt something he was personally familiar with but he had seen it done, and he actually felt the need to do so. Slipping and arm around her waist and lightly bringing his other hand to rest on the back of her head he really didn't know what to say other than "Just let it out"
Kaine blinked slightly when Hitome climbed off his back and moved over to seth looking rather worried, though before she even touched him her hand retracted, so she was ready to fogive seth but still afraid. Taking hold of one of her hands he gave it a light squeese before offering a slight smile.
To Charlotte it was rather obvious that there was a reason to that correction, she was stepping on landmines left and right. "And i happen to be one of those mothers who can tell what their child want's before they do" she said though her brow furrowed a little when she noticed Seths hands were rather beat up and bloody. "don't get me wrong, sometimes that boy needs a good nudge in the right direction just becareful" she said, explaining how to deal with the boy was just a barel of contradictions but thats how things needed to be, she wanted Sevren to be happy and while the boy did need a light push he could be quite fragile, at least in her eyes
