Sage nodded a bit, and poured himself a cup of the tea. After taking a sip, Sage spoke up once more, " Then why not prove it to them? I'm sure someone of your caliber would be well suited to beating some sense into some codgy old geezers who are too set in their ways to see the forest for the trees. And what's more...it would certainly be an adventure if you took me along and let me try my hand as battling them with Emy."

Clow's eyes opened a bit from sleeping peacefully and he looked up at the ceiling still incapable of moving at all. He sort of didn't want to anyways. Sighing, he let his head roll onto the side by itself and his eyes wandered off to the floor over the edge of the bed.
"Ugh..."

"I'm afraid, not only am I not powerful enough, but I would rather not get in the way of their system. If Soul Society falls, we fall to the Hollow. Then man kind as we know it would end up as Hollows. Plus, to go to Soul Society through a gate without permission, we would be Ryoka, and probably hunter down."

With a sigh, Sage drank down a bit more of his tea.
"So they hold back the hounds of hell, and impose a strict system. How badly would the hunting be if we went there without permission? would they kill us on sight? or would there be a trial? would they attack first, and never ask questions, or would they show curiosity, and ask why we came?"

Reeve lies in the corner, twitching and mumbling in his sleep.
"Mission accepted...'round the corner....No, No. Abort!"
His eyes snap open and he half- shouts, his voice shrill,
"Wrong target, it's an orphanage!"
Sitting up and rubbing his eyes and cold sweat from his brow, he shivers.
" Oh, God...."

"I'm not too sure... I haven't been there in quite some time." She nodded, then walked to the kitchen, grabbing two more cups. She could sense the movement in the infirmary. She poured tea into the cups, then bowed to Sage. "I'm going to give some to Reeve. I will be back."
At that, she walked off to the infirmary, just after Reeve's bout. She snuck up in front of him silently, placing the cups down and slowly, and with great care she placed her hand on him cheek, trying to calm him again. "Reeve, you alright...?"

Sage nodded a bit, and began staring into his cup of tea. I wonder how many people take the time to notice the things in life? This tea seems a bit different from when I made it back home...there's something missing...but what is missing? I put the spices in...I put the mint in...I used the right kind of tea...oh! Damn...I forgot to put the sake in. that's why it's not as strong a fire in the belly as it used to be...oh well. I suppose it's good this way too...not sure if it will clear the system out as well as it would with the sake in it though.

Reeve blinks and shivers, rocking back and forth, only jumping slightly when she touches him.
"Dear God, all of 'e...little ones..."

Irianna walks out of her bedroom. The travel bag she has slung over her shoulder is as full as it was on the day she arrived at the dojo. To the eyes of someone unaware of her intentions, it would seem as though the winged woman is packed and ready to hit the road again. In reality, Iri is moving her things to a temporary "bedroom" she has prepared in the forest surrounding the dojo. It isn't that Iri is unappreciatvie that Reeve assigned her a room. Her problem is that the dojo has become, in her opinion, a tad too dangerous a place to sleep.
Carefully balancing the stuffed bag between her wings, Iri begins to walk through the main hall and toward the door.

Yuki placed her thumb soft over his lips to hush him, then wrapped her arms around to frightened man, holding him tight to her. "Ssshh... it's alright, Reeve... shhh...."

Reeve sighs expressively, trying to regulate his breathing.
"Clow's no monster...I am..."

As Iri walks through the main room of the dojo, she would see Sage sitting next to one of the couches and staring at his tea. His expression would show that he's thinking about something, but it would be hard to tell exactly what.

Clow winced as a tear streamed down his face which he had no control over. He felt pain he thought he'd never feel. He had killed a man so ruthlessly...just like he had once before. The first time he left the dojo for two years...He had finally resided back into his home at the dojo. But...the awful memories were coming back.

"If you were a monster, I would'n' be callin' yah cute, now would I?" She said, making him look her in the eyes. "You are no monster, Reeve. Trust me." In her mind, she was thinking, 'Damn I'm good at this.'

Had it not been for a strange scent, Iri would have never noticed Sage. Something spicy and minty at the same time. Smells nice, but where's it coming from...
Iri turns her head and sees Sage. The man's expression is thoughtful. Curious as ever, she crosses the room. She noiselessly takes a seat next to him. Instead of breaking whatever his thoughts might be, she waits to be noticed.
