Harper was smiling happily, rearranging her cards in a chill fashion. And then she heard what Cass said. She bit her bottom lip and raised her deep golden gaze up to the girl, her eyes narrowed. "One thing," she began in a dark voice. "It's STD's. STI is specified or specialized technologies incorporated," she corrected, pursing her lips. "I don't have any but I'll make sure that if I get one then you'll be first on my list to infect," she said teasingly, smiling. "If you're gonna diss me, then make sure you at least get the right word," she said, tilting her head to the side as she laid down another card. She wasn't mad at Cass for the 'joke', but she was definitely going to call her out on her mistake. "Uno," she said in a sing-song voice with a smile as she laid down her next to last card.
Harper raised her gaze to the new guy who got into the car, and arched a slender eyebrow at him. A small smile crossed her pink lips and she tilted her head to the side. "We are playing Uno, my friend," she said lightly, grinning. "And the game might just be over but we can start a new one for ya." Harper glanced at her cards but then raised her gaze back up to the new guy. "I'm Harper. I don't think we've met. Who're you?" She asked brightly in a Romanian accent; a piece of deep red hair falling over her left eye.
II: whoah i just noticed. why is everyone so hostile towards each other? goodness gracious >.<. i think harper is the only one who hasn't thought a mean thought... maybe i just didn't think of one lol. :II

{{Wow, Isn't that embarrassing? The fact that I actually wrote STI and reread my post without catching my mistake...sadness all around.}}

Bastian shook his head. "No, there are such a thing as sexually transmitted infections." he said, enjoying the idea of being a killjoy a little too much.
"Jared Reeves. I'm a long time friend of Bastian's. Nice to meet you." he said, then smirked. He hadn't played Uno in years- the average casino goer preferred blackjack, slots, and roulette wheels, and so that type of thing was what he had in his establishments. "Heh, why not? I haven't played since I was a kid. But go easy on me, cards aren't my thing." he lied. Whether it be Go Fish, Black Jack or Texas Hold'em, Jared was always successful, even in games that depended solely on chance. He was just a lucky guy in that aspect.

Cass smiled and blushed hearing Haper correct her. She continued to play with the cards loosing pretty badly to Harper. Cass didn't really feel like speaking at the moment , probably because she was affraid to say something stupid. The girl looked up at Sebass as he then corrected Harpy and smiled faintly. The girl placed her cards down,
"Well, we can just start a new game now, since it's obvious your going to win Harpy."
Cassy admitted with just about no shame. The girl placed her cards in the deck and looked over at Harpy then Jared,
"What do you all wanna play?"
{{Yes! That is what I meant ._. I think...D:}}

(( Yeah, lol, I was about to say the same thing Dustmop >.< ))
"Two or three hours!?! Damn..." Rin mumbled under her breath as she looked blankly out of the window. Rin sighed, she hated extended car rides, she did get a little car sick if she was in the car for long periods of time. "Drue...Through the mountains....and then Overlook Hotel..." She said to herself as closed her eyes.
Rin looked over to Sebastian as he mad a comment about sexually transmitted infections. "You would know wouldn't you Sebastian? You've got one don't you?" She teased, at least she didn't mention anyones mother yet, which she usually would mention with sexual jokes, it was a habit.

Bastian nodded. "Yes, I got it from your mother. She was really good though, totally worth the two week course of antibiotics." he said, privy to the fact that Rin liked to make sexual references to people's mothers. Normally Bastian wouldn't be this cheeky but he figured he might as well lighten up around his present company. If they could be cheerful and obnoxious, then he could too. Or at least he'd try.

Rin laughed as Sebastian pretty much encouraged her mother-dissing ways, by partaking in it himself. "Dedication much!" Rin added, not having a mother reference at the moment, and nothing much to add to that. Rin then paused as she thought for a moment and added, "You're so gross too! With my mother!?! Man, I think I'd rather masturbate than have sex with my mother or anyone that looked like her..." Rin found her mother, as an unattractive lady, but her saying this, was just her getting to technical, and literal, which she did every now and then, just to relieve pressure on her to make a comeback of some sort.

Bastian laughed. "Really? She's ugly? I always thought that if the kids were attractive then the parents must be too, but I never really had parents so I don't know much about the subject." He sighed. He had decided long ago that he'd never have kids, he didn't like how every decision he made could ultimately ruin the lives of his children. Being a parent just seemed too selfish for his liking. He figured that if he ever had any paternal urges he could just go volunteer down at the local children's shelter. At least most of those kids had already lost their faith in adults, he couldn't do anymore damage.

Rin smiled as he basically complimented her, and she told him, "Well, I'm sure she was attractive at one pont, but then she had kids, got married, and got old....That's a lot to try and balance out, you know?" Rin then looked to him and asked, "Never really had parents? What do you mean? Every one has parents." Rin knew Sebastian, but she didn't know him quite THAT well. She knew practically nothing about him before college, porbably because she didn't have too many in depth conversations with him before. She could only imagine how beautiful his family must be.

Bastian shrugged. "I don't remember them. At all."
"For all he knows, he may be some sort of government experiment." Jared butted in, "Quick, lift up his shirt! See if he has a belly button!"
"...Thank you, Jared. Your compassion for others is astounding." he said, and turned back to Rin, "I guess I spent the entirety of my childhood in foster care. And I do so have a navel."

Rin nodded to Jared and then looked to Sebastian with a smile, "I think we need to check you on that claim." She was referring to the "belly button" situation, but she wouldn't attempt to check since he was driving and didn't want to cause him to steer off the road. She then became serious once more and asked, "Foster care? Did you deal with it well? I mean...Were you okay with being in foster care, or did you hate it?" As far as she knew, he could've been in an abusive household, or even a filthy rich, spoiled household. She had never known anything like this about Sebastian, she had no idea that he was an orphan.

"I wouldn't recommend it to anyone but I don't know what it's like having the same set of parents all my life so I don't have anything to compare it to." Bastian said, "The only good thing is if you get stuck living with horrible people chances are you won't be there for long, I feel bad for kids who grew up with horrible biological parents. Plus when you're living in a group home you meet some cool people, like Jared for instance."

"Oh, so Jared and you grew up together, pretty much?" Rin asked, now seeing how they became friends. Rin felt a little bad for Sebastian though, not that he was friends with Jared, but because he had never had a permanent set of parents, so he probably never had that parental bond that most kids have with their parents. Rin couldn't imagine it, even though when she was a kid she always wished she could have someone else as her parents, but looking back at it, it was a foolish, childish thing to wish for; as are most childhood wishes made after an arguement with their parents. Children will be children though, and her wish never came true, though, now she wondered how it would've been if it had come true. I'd probably feel guilty...Does Sebastian feel guilty for his parents sending him away? I hope not...What a horrible way to look back at it.

II: nah it's not embarrassing lol i thought it was kinda funny really. (: like, funny/cute not like, funny/lame or anything. :II
Harper flashed a smile at Jared and murmured, "Nice to meet you too." Her golden gaze flashed to Cass who said that Harper was going to win. She hoped Cass wasn't going to be mad at her for correcting her. She really liked Cass and her energetic attitude. She hated quiet people for the most part. She felt bad about correcting Cass though becasue she knew how embarrassing that could be. Harper just thought it was funny, and she hadn't really been trying to embarrass her. Back in the day, however, that probably would have been her intention. She'd changed a lot since the past and it was all mostly for the better.
Her gaze flickered to Jared once more when he said he was bad at cards. She smirked and shook her head. "Then you'd probably be the only one on this bus. Everyone else seems to know cards like the back of their hand," she murmured lightly and shuffled a new deck. "Hey wait, do we all still want to play Uno?" She asked lightly in a Romanian accent. "Or another game? Because I brought like, 3 different types of cards with me," she said somewhat sheepishly, a piece of dark red hair falling on her face once more. She bit her bottom lip and pushed it back quickly. She listened to everyone talk about living in group homes and how they were all sympathizing with each other. It was kind of sweet, and Harper wished she'd been in that conversation. So far, she hadn't been too involved. Like Cass, she'd just been hanging out in the back of the Van sort of minding her own business. Her gaze landed on Jared, who was her next victim for analyzing. She tilted her head to the side but made sure he didn't know she was looking. She liked his look, and his style. He has potential,[/color] she thought to herself amusedly.

Jared smirked. "Um, how about 21?" he said, thinking of how much enjoyment he'd get out of surprising them with his skill. He was generally a nice person but the casino owner in him occasionally took over when a situation like this presented itself.
Bastian shrugged once more as they pulled into Drue's neighborhood. "Sort of. Jared wasn't there for long." he said, then noticed the sad look on her face. "Oh, please don't feel bad!"
