Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dracal listens to her as he frowned at her. "I know what you mean.. I do want you to get strong as you can, Nyx. Don't let me be in the way, my dear." He moves towards her but not to where he would be in the way of her cooking. He flattens his ears as he heard her words about her school. "You proved to me that you are stronger than you realize, Nyx. I believe that you can do anything if you put your mind to it..."

He looked towards her and caresses her cheek softly "Concentrate on your training. I do have something that you may want to try in your training. Remember how I told you that I would try to train you in Karate?" He moves towards the center of the room and began to do a form of Tai Chi. "This will help you a bit.. It is a form of medication and exercise. It'll help you get stronger, my dear." He stopped and looks at her with a smile. "I will love you no matter where you go. I'll have you in my heart like I always did, my ballerina." He then kisses her on the cheek. "Don't give up on your dream because of me. Just because you found me doesn't mean you will lose me again, Nyx. Remember that."

Dracal smiled towards her while purring in a soft tone. "And I'll be there every step of the way, Nyx... I love you, my cute ballerina." He said in a whisper. He watched her in amazement with her cooking. "...Wow.. You are a fast cooker.. aren't you?" He said while chuckling gently. "You just end up being stronger than me emotionally wise, my dear."

He flicks his ears as he listens to her and said. "... Nyx.. I would have never let you die.. I was right there besides you when you first took your breath.. I was right there besides you when you were sick. I have been there for you all those times except when I was gone.. You think I am gonna let you die now?" He reaches out and caressed her cheek softly. "You are different now.. You are not sick anymore. If you keep up with your dancing and the exercising, you will continue to be strong. Nothing is gonna stop you now, my Nyxy. I can promise you that."

Dracal looks towards her with a smile before moving to her. "Oh.. You want to beat me in some game, hmm?" He said teasingly. He goes silently for awhile before gently replying. "Well.. You beat me in cooking that I know for sure, my ballerina." He watched her cook as he purred loudly for her. He knew that he could never cook as good as she could.

Dracal listened to her as he hung to every word that she had said. He knew that once she applied to the university territory, it would be a while before he could see her again. "You will do it. I know you can do it, Nyxy." He said with a smile. "I will concentrate on my fighting and the dancing so I can be your partner however you wish me to be." He looked around the room then moves to set the plates on the dining table. "Do you think Mom will be home in time to eat or is she stay with Dad?" He couldn't bring himself to call them by their names as he felt it was dishonorable to do so in his heart. He knew that they wasn't his parents anymore but he still loved them no matter where the path of being Nyx's boyfriend would take him.

Dracal chuckles as he grinned right back at her. "Just keep up with your strength and you'll find a way to beat me. I know you have your own style in fighting, my dear." He nodded while watching her. "You got that right.. I need to try to find a way for me to learn how to dance better while you are at the university, Nyxy."

Dracal looked towards her once again while saying. "How can they not call you back, Nyx? You are incredible in your dancing. You have the courage, the determination and the strength to do what you want to do. I just know that you will get in." He looks over to her while smiling. "I just wanted to know because I wasn't sure if you would want me to set a plate down for her or not." His ears flicked as he'd heard that Kieran was moving back in and smiled. He often wondered how Kieran would react to him being with Nyx now that he is older. "That is good. I just hope that I don't cause any problems." He still had that feeling that he would cause things to get worse. It was something that probably would never go away.

Dracal looks over to her with a chuckle escaping from his lips. "I'll find a way. I always did, didn't I? Look at me! I survived all those times without you..." He shook his head to clear out the bad memories as he didn't want to spoil the moment. "I do have a thai chi form that I could use. But I need some music to listen to." He tilts his head to make her laugh.. or at least try to. He listens to her and then nodded softly. "There will probably be a good teacher there that can teach you better than I can."

He smiled at her then moves off to the table to set another plate and glass for Persy. He was nervous, so very nervous about seeing her again. He didn't want to mess it up as he sighed. He quickly tried to hide his nervousness. "I am not sure, Nyx. I mean he did feel uncomfortable with me being around you. I was just a kitten at the time. I didn't know what was going on. He can't fault me for that." He flats his ears while keeping his tail down. "I don't want to be the one that tells him, Nyx...." It felt like glass breaking under his feet as he said that. He never wanted to hurt her but how could he get the courage to tell Kieran? It would be a long road for him this time around. He'd knew that he would have to tread on that said road sooner or later. He then looks over to her, seeing her excitement. "Don't let me be the one that be in the way of your happiness to see him again, Nyx. I do not want to spoil things up as I have before." It was no doubt in his heart that he felt that he messed things up but didn't blame himself anymore because of the cleansing. He didn't know what else that he could say to her. He just moves back to the cabinet and picked up the rest of the plates.

Dracal looked towards Nyx with a small smile of his own, moving towards him. He reached out to caress her on the cheek. "Nyx, none of what happened to me is your fault. I left on my own because I knew that if I stayed, I would be the one that caused the problems." His ears went down as he watched her. He then smiled as he listens to her. "I certainly hope that you will find someone to help you learn the chi. It will help your body and your health as well."

Dracal looks towards her and sighed softly. "I know I am a bit of a wimp when it comes to him but I can't risk doing something that I may regret. Your father loves you so much, Nyx." He watched her slowly then moves off to get something to drink.

He froze when he'd caught Persy's scent. "...Mama?' He looked around before hearing her soft voice. "Mama!" He felt tears forming in his eyes. He knew no matter what will happen, he would still consider her as his mother. He lets out a happy whimper, rushing towards her as he was very light on his feet. He gave her a hug the first thing that he wanted to do. "I missed you so much, Mama!" He gasped as he realized what he was doing and moved back slowly. "..Miss Persy..I am sorry.. I.. I.." He looks over to where Nyx is and then at Persy, smiling sheepishly as tears rolled down his cheeks.
