Welcome to Gaia! ::

(( Oi.... have fun in the other Rp Blaze. >< ))

Leena laughed, oh she could understand that completely, "I almost did, but I know he won't change. Thats just how he is and I shouldn't try to force him to do something out of character." She murmured, noticing how he seemed a bit more serious, lowering her eyes. She sighed, managing a small smile at his wink, shaking her head when he used her line. "I know. Oh I am, have no fear of that. Well, it's not like my kingdom would care. My advisors would welcome it so that they could find a pure blooded Merethian to be their King or Queen instead of a half-breed like me. At least, thats what they call me. Ah well, they'll just have to deal with me." She sighed, adjusting her robes a little so that her scars weren't visible, stretching out on her cloak, her hands resting on her cloak behind her, leaning against them as she brought one knee up. "I'm always careful, don't worry." She murmured once more, staring up at the sky.

Cori nodded, pulling away gently. "Probably should go talk to them..." she murmured, not sadly but not looking up to him. She paused as she reached the door, looking back to him. "And for the record, most elves don't measure time like everyone else since we can live so long. Ten, twenty years isn't all that much." she said, the faintest of smiles flickering across her lips before she went to find the house where her bow was still, grabbing it and her quiver before going to the Rangers. She hesitated as she saw Tuin, hoping he's hear her.

"Tuin, is she alright?" she thought, looking to him and pausing to look to him.

((Should I just give Aki something to do, or...))

Vadász just lowered his eyes and nodded, letting her slip free of his arms. He noted her not looking up to him, cursing himself for having to say something, even if they should talk about it. He raised his eyes to her when she stopped in the doorway, a brief smile passing over his features as he walked outside as well, promptly getting tackled by a blur that sent him sprawling into the snow. "God dammit Priya do you mind?!" He snapped, looking to his sister whom was resting on his chest.

"It's so cute that you still think in human years. And no, I don't mind." Priya grinned up to her brother, helping him up as she always did after glomping him. "Lighten up brother, you two will be fine-"

He was not in the mood for this. "Priya," He cut her off, grabbing her by the shoulders a little rougher than he originally intended, looking her in the eye. "For once, can you please stay out of my business? I know you are trying to help, but you aren't. Not with this." He then let her go and walked past her after Cori, brushing the snow from his clothes as he did. He spotted her quickly, folding his arms as he just tilted his head, guessing that they were speaking telepathically. He sensed that Leena was back, but he could ask her later to fix his charm for him.

She blinked as he grabbed her, lowering her eyes after he was already gone, that faint smile remaining upon her lips. Alright... I'll leave you be. She walked up to one building, leaning against it with a sigh, holding herself as she watched everyone. It made her giggle a little to see the Queen and Kantern together. Roran looked like he was brooding again, everything seemed normal. Except her brother. She just shook her head, brushing her hair back as she crouched down in the snow, starting to fashion a mini snowman.

Vadász lost whatever smile he had tried to put on his face the minute that he felt Cori's emotions, it felt like a smack to the face almost. He felt his heart grow heavy, he knew what knews had been told, he could at least guess. He walked after her silently, watching her, not knowing what he could do for her. There was one thing. He started pulling the negative emotions from her, knowing that it would leave her barely feeling anything, but it had helped him when he was mourning. He took on her emotions himself, he knew he could take it. Then he took what positive emotions he held left and gave them to her, a calmness hopefully settling into her system. He was trying to have her remember the good and not the bad. He didn't try to hold her since he didn't want to disrupt her, knowing that shooting the targets was sort of helping her.

Vadász noticed the smile, relaxing a little as he fought with the pain and grief that she had held. Yes, he could deal with this. Tilting his head a little, he relaxed a little, kissing her back, his hands running along her sides gently in a comforting manner. "You're welcome. I can take it, don't worry. Anything for you my dear." He said quietly, folding his arms in front of his chest as he continued to watch her, his eyes soft, though his own fight with her pain was hidden there. He wouldn't show her that though, he didn't want her worrying.

Vadász looked down to her as she walked up to him, grimacing a little, hesitant to give what was left of those emotions back to her. "I can ask her later, right now I think I should leave her be." He glanced over to her, she seemed so content, he would bother her later. He hugged her, held her close to his chest as he slowly gave it all back to her, making sure it was only her emotions that he was giving back and none of his own. "I'll just go get some rest." He told her quietly, kissing her forehead as he slowly let go of her, heading back towards the house they had been in before, going upstairs to the bedroom, flopping down with a heavy sigh. He could hear a bird softly singing, and he knew whom it was.

Priya had changed into a nightingale and was quietly singing, making sure that she wouldn't draw attention to anyone, sensing how her brother was feeling along with everyone else. She just hoped she was helping rather than hindering. She half expected Roran to shoot at her again, or Sarah come out of nowhere and start beating her again.

Cori looked to Roran, barely supressing the urge to put an arrow through his heart. She doubted he'd miss her hand shifting closer to her quiver. "I'll go with the army. And I doubt Selena will want to see me unless to tell me to leave her be. She only tolerated me because of Eve. And thank you ever so much for giving your permission." she kept herself from snapping, though the ice wasn't as easily supressed.

Cori glanced to Vadász with a faint, quick smile before pushing the emotions down and heading into the forest, ignoring anything else either said. She kept going until she found a clearing, speaking softly in elven, murmuring a spell she'd been taught since birth. A glass sword formed in her hands, which she pushed into the ground as she knelt, whispering all the while in Elven. She slipped a necklace over her head, though it formed two as the chain reached the crest of her head. The original fell back to her neck, the second remaining in her hands. She put the necklace over the sword, the hilt holding it up. Eve had given it to her when they were little, a birthday present. She hadn't taken it off since she put it on upon recieving it. A rosebush began to grow around the sword, twining around it with white roses budding, then blooming only to wither away and fall to the ground. The petals sank into the ground, and the bush bloomed again. This time to stay there.

Cori fell silent, the ancient ceremony her parents had taught her finally completed. It was one to honor and always remember the dead, only meant for family or close friends and used by few families any more, her family being one of them. She finally let herself cry openly, tears mostening the soil.

She got to her feet, murmuring a goodbye as she turned and left, not sure how long she'd spent out here. It had been at least an hour, judging by the sun. She showed no evidence of what she'd done, most her sorrow supressed and lessened. She reached the house, slipping inside and pausing. He was upstairs, presumably in the bedroom as she didn't see him down here. She sighed softly, going up and knocking lightly on the door. "Come on, we're leaving." she said simply, pushing all her emotions away to hide them from him too, hopefully. She'd seen them packing up as she returned, Tyri already ready to leave and saddled up.
