Garaden layed his head atop Blair's, smiling while his brow furrowed in worry. 'Boys? Nothing serious?' Telling himself not to panic, he took a relaxing breath. "Ammy's a chatterbox? I wouldn't have thought that." He slowly wrapped his tail with her's. "Well, I've been thinking too. Quite a bit of thinking."
Ivan's head whipped around and stared at Raisa. 'Did she just say 'piano'?!' He quickly turned back to his reflection. At his eyes. There was no denying it. Raisa had said piano, right as he had been thinking about it. He tried to tell himself that she was only telling Ammy about the room, but his eyes told him he was lying to himself. He peeked at Raisa, who was looking as confused as he felt. But, what should he do about it? What would he say? How would he begin? Frusterated, he went back to staring out the window, trying to straighten out his thoughts before talking to her.

Ger shook his head no at Kai. "No I'm good. Thanks anyways." He said, "It has been a long day." He laid down stretching out. A yawn escaped him as he settled down.
Ammy jumped up at Raisa said with a growl. She barked saying kidnapped?! She continued on saying how dare they; that if she ever ran into them she'd teach them a lesson. She calmed down slightly when it dawned on her why she had that bad feeling earlier. She woofed saying she had a bad feeling ever since Ivan had returned earlier that day and Raisa didn't. She tilted her head and barked asking about the super hero wolf. She thought she had an idea but she had to make sure. She looked over at Ger and made a note that she would have to thank him later. She woofed asking piano? She wondered why Raisa randomly said that.
Rudolf looked at Endless putting his paw on hers. "Fine thing every is." He said then sighed, "Thing every fine not. Fault mine bowl round food gone is." He lowered his eyes when he confessed that trying not to think about how she must feel about that.

Naito looked at the others. He was not quite sure what to say, but he should thank Suicune at least. Now that he was good at. He trotted up to Suicune. "Hey um Suicune...about earlier...you didn't have to do that." He looked down a bit and shifted his paws a bit.
Suicune was still in the process of talking to Atreyu. "I see. Well if you need any help even though I'm a lord, I wouldn't mind helping you if you need any." He looked towards his children for a minute then back to Atreyu. He then whispered in Atreyu's ear. "However, Jay has a tendancy to be stubborn and fierce at times like his mother. I'm trying to teach him to be sociable." He then turned towards Naito. "Huh? Well we're in the same pack. I'm sure you would do the same thing for me, but next time try not to take him on alone. I'm sure you have other friends who would stand up for you around him that are strong both mentally and physically."
Jay looked at his dad a bit suspicious at what he was saying then looked back at Tilly. It always seemed he could tell when someone was talking about him. Sort of like a funky sense. "Um...my name's Jay...no reason why I got named that though."

Ava followed Naito since she felt lonely when he left her alone, though remained quiet as Naito went around apologizing to everyone. Her tail swishing to and fro idly

Kai nodded in agreement with Ger.
"You definitely got that right!" Kai stretched and shook his fur as he slid to the floor beside Nimue. "I'm surprised everyone is still going strong after all the work we did today."
Happy to have his paw atop hers, Endless had closed her eyes to relax but opened her eyes to look at Rudolf when he confessed her what had happened to the food bowl. She looked back over her shoulder at the center of the floor where the food bowl had been and looked back at Rudolf.
"It cannot be your fault that the food bowl is gone. You were on a mission away from this room... why would it be your fault my dear Rudolf?" She asked.
Atreyu laughed at Suicune when he whispered in his ear and he glanced down at Jay.
"Stubborn eh? That could always be changed." He turned and looked at Naito and nodded at the purple moonlit. "I'm glad that you have rejoined us here. Have you worked everything out with yourself?"
Blair took a deep breath and listened to Garaden's heart beat, trying to match her own heart to his.
"Yeah, she's amazing when she gets by herself. She just jabbers away." Blair said, laughing at how she had flipped the story somewhat of the time she had spent with Ammy. She heard him say he was thinking himself and she tilted her head curiously. "Thinking? What were you thinking about?"
Raisa was still confused and flustered about the whole Piano thing and she noticed Ivan staring at her strangely for a brief moment and she stared at him even after he looked away. She was completely caught off guard by Ammy growling though and she jumped, whirling around to look at Ammy and fell back onto her rump.
"You had a bad feeling?" Raisa asked, amazed that the goddess had had some what of an 'women's intuition' moments. "You're more than welcome to have a go at him. He deserves it. Oh the super hero... she was amazing. I hope I see her again one day. She had a black cloak and a black mask and I think her name was Masked Moonlit."
Raisa pawed at the ground when Ammy asked about the piano and she coughed to clear her throat.
"Oh, it was nothing Ammy; just something that popped into my head." She glanced at Ivan quickly and then back at Ammy. "So what have you been doing?"

Tilly nodded to Jay, then thought a moment and shook her head. "Why does your name need meaning?" She looked at Jay's brother. "Does Suikoden have a reason? 'Tilly' has no reason." She said, confused. Should her name have a reason?
Ivan continued staring out, oblivious to his surroundings, lost in thought.
"Well..." Garaden started, licking his nose nervously. "Mostly its been about you... about us. I-ah." He braced his paws on the floor. "Please don't misunderstand. What I'm trying to say is clear as day in my head. It's just getting it out.. it's difficult. Don't know why... um." Sighing heavily, Garaden closed his eyes. He knew what he wanted to say. Why was it so hard to get out? He had to stay calm, but even just her scent made his breath catch in pleasure. Great, excited and nervous... how was he supposed to survive without having a stroke first?
Suddenly, a picture from earlier filled his mind. Blair was sitting next to him, the glow of fireworks highlighting her fur and making her eyes glitter. Those gray eyes that were so easy to fall into... And the words began to flow. "When we're together, I always feel really good. When we were apart, what I looked forward to most was seeing you again. Remember those feelings we were having before, but didn't know what they were? Neither of us could describe them. I figured out what it was, at least for myself." He reopened his eyes. Keeping his tail wrapped lightly with hers, he turned his head to look into those lovely eyes. "Blair, I was falling in love with you. I have fallen in love with you. And, I never want the feelings to end."
Garaden's got a mouth-full here... >_< For him at least.

Ger nodded at Kai. "Yeah. I have no clue how they're still awake." He said closing his eyes, "I'm going to sle..." Ger fell asleep in mid-sentence.
Ammy nodded settling down. She barked saying of course she did, Raisa is her friend after all. She continued saying she will have a go at him when she sees him, who was he? She tilted her head at Raisa's description of the super hero. She nodded and woofed saying she could arrange things so Raisa could see Masked Moonlit again. She knew MM. She glanced at Ivan when Raisa did and wondered what was up with those two. She smiled at Raisa and woofed saying she had hung out with Blair and Endless. She went on saying that she told Blair what it was like to fall in love and that the two of them were going to pester Endless into admitting her feelings for Rudolf.
Rudolf smiled sadly at Endless. "Fault mine." He said thinking of how to explain it, "Agrona kidnapped Tilly and bowl food round. She like not German. German am I. Did she so me because."
Garaden does have a mouth-full confessing his love. Aw >_<

Naito nodded his head. "Yeah...I figured things out. I'm probably not going to force the issue of having a mate. Some I guess are not meant for it." He was feeling a bit sad since he sort of did want one, but he was not going to let that get in the way. "I just wished my last one after Aisling would have stayed."
Suicune sort of chuckled and nodded. "Yes that's true." He then looked at Suicune. "Well I wouldn't say that, but maybe you'll get one someday. If it makes you feel any better, try to give ladies compliments and hang around them often. I would not bring up want to be my mate as soon as you meet them since Moro almost went aggressive on me when I sort of asked her...although it was funny. It was almost like I had to pass tests to get her to be mine."
Jay cocked an eye at Suicune, although he was learning to control his temper he still felt a bit angry that Suicune would talk about his mother that way. He admired Moro since she had an independant I don't need help type of attitude. Moro could be nice like Jay, but it would only be to her close friends. He then looked back at Tilly. "Um...well..." he paused for thinking. "I don't know...it just is neat to have a meaning or a reason why my parents named me that."
Naito looked at him. "Yeah...I see what you mean. Plus I remember that Amaranth told me one thing. She said it was better to have loved and lost then to have never loved at all." He then looked at Ava and sort of made a motion to say we can go back now if you want and went towards where they were before.
Suikoden was watching with amusement at how Jay had been acting the whole time. "Actually your name means victory in sanskrit." He then thought a bit about his name. "Well I do know that I had the Sui part from my dad and they randomly threw something on the end." He laughed a bit. "You don't have to have a reason for a name, but most names are like that."

Ava nods politely to the others as if saying hello..except not saying a word and turned and padded after Naito towards the window once again, and sat on her haunches looking out the window then at Naito "they seem like a nice bunch.." she told him with a smile and nuzzled him lightly "though I'm proud of you that you were able to apologize to them..friends are good wolves to have around" she stated, though according to what her heart told her..she may have just started to fall in love with him and looks at him "the important thing is..you follow what your heart tells you" she finished

Naito nodded his head. "Yeah. It would be so nice if you could see others in my pack. I'm sure they would love you. Sugar Plum is my sister, but I don't see her that much. Amaranth and Millenia are probably the most elegible bachelorettes." He paused and bit his lip. "Just like Hiroshi and me are the most elegible bachelors in mine." He sighed and looked down. "Well it might not always stay that way." He then looked towards Ava. "I'm sorry if I mentioned this already, but did you ever tell me what you like to do and your interests?" He lightly nuzzled her back.

Ava shook her head "no..not that I can recall" she answered pondering it before curling up and resting her head on her forepaws, her tail swishing to and for idly then pausing "well..I'm sure you will find someone soon enough..just be patient and love will finds its way to you and if it does..just follow what your heart tells you" she said nodding her head and closing her eyes a bit and thinking

Kai laughed at Ger and shook his head as the other wolf fell asleep. Nimue nudged him roughly and the two of them looked at Garaden as he began to confess his feelings for Blair. Kai was surprised that Garaden was able to say everything to her without stumbling over his words or passing out completely on the floor. If he could, he knew he would have applauded for the kid. He merely smirked and shook his head; happy for the two of them.
Kai turned to Ivan staring off into space and he smirked. Walking over towards where the trash was being kept, he picked up an empty fruit cup and walked back to where he was sitting. He tossed it in the air and, using his tail as a bat, whacked the cup in midair at Ivan.
After nudging Kai, Nimue hopped up to her paws and tried to look away from the two to give them their own privacy but she couldn't help but listen to them talk to one another. She didn't know what love was so it was interesting watching others interact. She looked around and took into account that everyone needed rest and a day to relax and so she exited quietly to go and rest herself and gather the needed things for what was to come... ((Nimue to my room))
Endless listened to Rudolf and then began to gently shake her head.
"It isn't your fault Rudolf. Just because this Agrona doesn't like Germans doesn't make it your fault the food bowl is missing. If Agrona stole the food bowl because you are German, then the blame doesn't fall on you. It's not like you could have controlled all of this from happening. You cannot change who you are." Endless gave him an encouraging smile.
Atreyu nodded his head at Naito and watched as he turned and walked off with the female he had brought along to the room. "Good luck then Naito..." Atreyu said to him. He turned back to Suicune and laughed. "Hey, at least you were chased for months by a random wolf who suddenly feel head over paws for you. Either way, it seems your relationship with your mate was successful." He gestured to Jay and Suikoden and smiled.
"Wow...that is a lot to think about" Blair managed to say stupidly after listening to his declaration of love. She stared back at Garaden, her eyes gentle and her smile began to grow. She opened her mouth to respond to him but couldn't quite form what she wanted to say to him in just the right words. Taking a deep breath, she attempted again.
"I-I never used to really believe in love. My parents weren't in love and, although I'm happy my father is madly in love now, it was just weird growing up but..." She paused and moved her head under his chin; nuzzling him. "When my heart flutters whenever we touch and I get excited at just the thought of seeing you again even if it could just be a short encounter, I know it has to be something more then just friendship that I feel." She closed her eyes and sighed, continuing to nuzzle him. "So if you want it, my heart is yours."
Raisa smiled.
"His name is Iscariot...he's in our pack but there was another one; a female. I don't remember her name though." She suddenly perked up and wagged her tail happily. "You can really do that? That would be really nice to speak with her- wait, you were talking about love to Blair?" She glanced at Blair now who was with Garaden and she caught the tail end of what Garaden was saying to her. Fluttering her wings, she lifted off of the ground and let out a squeal. "Aw!!"

"Victory sounds neat. And you, named after your dad." Tilly looked between the two boys and frowned, ears drooping slightly. She wished her name meant something. "I wonder if I was named after someone." She said quietly, almost hopefully, but how could she ever find that out?
Ivan nearly jumped out of his fur when something bopped against him. He leapt up, his perch slid over and he tumbled to the floor. His relief of falling onto his uninjured side was short lived. "What the heck?!" He snapped, springing up and glaring at the room in search of the culprit. He tensed again at Raisa's squeal, turning to face her and what had her so excited, and managed to figure out the last sentence of Blair's confessions. "What the heck?" He said again, though much quieter than before. Once his mind re-entered his head and was thinking clearly, he sat back and smiled softly. He thought back to his own recent declaration of love, cuckled and shook his head. At least the kid wasn't a mess on the floor like he had turned into. While shaking his head, he spotted the cup that hadn't been there before. Kai.... He turned and glared at the pink male across the room.
Garaden's mouth twisted in mild amusement, and that morphed into a loving smile to match Blair's. He listened patiently, sighing when she nuzzled her head beneath his chin. His heart was marching in double time as she continued. He opened his mouth, but instead of words, a yelp slipped out when out of nowhere Ivan was yelling and then Raisa was squealing. His eyes widened. They were being watched! He groaned and hung his head in embarassment.
'No' He thought. 'If I'm going to become a knight, I better start acting like one.' He picked up his head and his courage bit by bit, trying to ignore the others. "I- uh." Crap! He shook his head, but whatever flow he'd had before.. was gone. Crap! "Um, I- was-" His pulse shot up. Craaaaap!! He peeked sideways at Blair. Wait- why was he nervous? She had pretty much said she loved him back! His pulse didn't come back down, but at least his brain reconnected itself to his mouth. "I gladly accept it. And if you so wish, will you be my mate?" Stupidly, he peeked around again. Raisa was watching them, Ivan was glaring at something, was he mad at him?, Kai was smirking, and the others were doing other things. He held his breath, stressed by those watching, and worried by those not watching. Wasn't this important? He turned back to Blair, hoping she would answer soon, otherwise he just might have that stroke he had been thinking about earlier.

Naito smiled. "Well then. What are your interests?" He knew he probably was asking too much, but he didn't care. He just wanted to know more about Ava and what she liked.
Suicune looked at Naito then back at Atreyu. "Yeah. It sure was hard, but I never saw another male wolf with another as a mate before. Ah well, there's always a first to everything." He then looked at his sons who were talking to Tilly.
Suikoden looked at Tilly for a moment and laughed. "Tilly means something. Here! I'll go get that name book that I've been reading. That's actually the only way I know some names have meaning or where they came from." He then darted off to the common room then came back with a book wrapped in his ribbons. He then released it on the ground and opened up the book. "Ah ha! See I told you your name has some meaning. Well it says here that Tilly is short for Matilda and it means "Powerful battler." He then pushed the book over for her to see.
Jay looked at his brother a bit then towards Atreyu. What his dad said about him having a male mate, was it true? If he could do that it might be easier since he would get nervous around the opposite gender and would not get angry as much. He would have more of a clueless type of attitude.

Ava pondered over it for a bit " to be honest..I'm not really into anything..at the moment..though I do like to read,and take leisurely strolls..I'm not really one of those wolves that can be complicated because they have a lot of things they are interested in and like to do..i'm rather simple" she told him
