Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Oh, well, yes. I just have a hard time finding the time and energy to put everything in its place with work." ^^; She could just imagine trying to explain to Fae she escorted dead souls to the afterlife. The poor woman already acted uncomfortable around her, and to learn what she did would probably make her more paranoid than Sy. That'd really be saying something.

Delta blinked as she watched Pueblo and tried to understand what she was trying to convey. Was she... chewing on the picture? O_o Well, either way, she seemed happy to paint her (who wouldn't, I mean, she was beautiful). Fluffing her feathers again, she watched Pueblo studiously, enjoying the fruits of this friendship greatly.

Alyosha walked out across the Island, through the small village towards Foenix's. He plucked the burners from his pocket, the brown envelope crackling under his fingers. Placing them down on the front step of her house he tucked a note underneath them.



He walked back towards home, assured that the note would stay in the relatively calm, windless night. He got half way across the centre of the village before stopping, eyes wandering to the house where he knew Sy had taken up residence. It couldn't hurt to pop in, could it...

Walking resolutely towards the door he paused, his hand almost knocking the door. Maybe she'd be asleep... maybe.. He turned, ready to go back to the centre.

Alyosha walked a few steps more, boots clicking against the rough stone and compacted dirt covering that covered most of the ground within the village. He glanced up once more, towards the house, his eyes catching a flicker of a dull light. Candlelight it seemed, by look and smell.

Of course he hadn't noticed it when he came from the other side of the building as the wind was blowing against his back. He walked up towards the glass window. It was the kind which obscured your view of the inside by undulations and thickness. Hmm.

Taking a resolute breath he rapped on the window with his knuckles. "Sy-chan?"

Alyosha turned to see her peeking out of the door. Her hair was up, in a bun. He hadn't seen her with anything other than a ponytail before. It made her look .. elegant, despite the small wisps sticking out in all directions. He had probably disturbed her from her bed.

Geh.

He walked towards her, smiling a little. "Sorry, I didn't mean to wake you, I seen the light..." he stopped in front of her, one arm reaching up, his hand brushing a little wisp of hair out of her face. "I guess I just wanted to say goodnight.."

Alyosha nodded a little. "I won't disturb you for long then." he wasn't sure what had made him come here but she had been on his mind. It was nice to see her here and her backlit figure silhoutted, a fine line of light accenting her slim figure.

Taking a few steps forward, he leaned towards her to kiss her. He gave her a light peck on the cheek, drawing back quickly. He knew how embarrassed she could get and knew waiting for her to allow him to kiss her would take a little too long. He smiled slightly. "Big Sister, eh?"

"Are you sure?" she seemed to notice his aversion to Mazin, and chuckled softly, reaching down to pet the tiny beast. "He won't hurt you, he's harmless, really." she explained, and stood up. Mazin yawned, and flopped onto his side again, sending out a little cloud of dust, enjoying the warmth of the sandy dirt on his side.

Keanu cherked, and batted back with one of his blue-gey paws, and rolled over to push at Osu lightly with all four paws before darting away, hoping Osu would chase. His eyes shone happily, he was having a lot of fun.

She watched him go, knowing nothing she was going to say would make im linger behind. The faint blush still on her cheeks, she touched her lip, as if she was trying to feel the kiss that had just been there a moment before. It... it was odd, to have him drop by at night, just to say goodnight, and then hurry off as if there was something wrong. It troubled her even.

Standing in the doorway only a moment longer, she hesitantly stepped back into her house and closed the door. As she closed it she shambled back to her bed, blowing out candles as she went along. Coming to her bed she flopped on it, sending her photocopies of pictures flying and her gluestick rolling to the floor.

Ugh. Just ugh. It was a nice gesture, but teasing. Grabbing her pillow she curled up around it, pretending she wasn't an adult sleeping alone in her bed and imagining it to be someone. That, after all, would be silly.
