Welcome to Gaia! ::

Luciano could now relax, seeing Sabe was already on the road to recovery. He gently patted Waffle's shoulder, and he said softly, "I'll be around if you need me." he smiled, then he said to Sabe, "Feel better soon, Sabe." Keeping his smile, he made his way out of the room and then walked to his and Michelle's room.

Waffle watched Sabe from where she was, then realized that all of the drama made her forget about eating. She told Sabe, "I'll be right back." and then left the room. She walked down the stairs and ventured into the kitchen for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Luciano had gotten out of the shower, he wrapped a towel around his waist and then used another to dry off his hair. He walked out of the bathroom, he walked into the middle of the bedroom where he saw Michelle laying on the chaise, which was situated at the foot of their bed, reading a folder full of papers. Luciano smiled at her, and then he walked over to sit by her feet. When he sat down, Michelle sat up and walked to the direction of the balcony. Luciano sighed, then got up to follow her,
"Amore`, what's the matter? You've been ignoring me ever since we got to central control." he said, with his voice full of concern.
Michelle turned her back to him, and leaned against the stone rail. She wasn't about to say one word to him. Luciano walked up to stand beside her, the towel he used to dry his hair was now modestly draped over his shoulder to cover up some of his chest and back. Luciano attempted to hold Michelle's hand but she quickly took it away from him, "Babe," Luciano said to her while trying to take her hand again, but she resisted once more "I can't fix it if you don't talk about it."
"What makes you think I even want to speak to you right now, Luciano?"
Luciano let out a sigh, he replied to her "Michelle, what did I do wrong?" Michelle folded her arms and looked away from him. Luciano finally threw his arms in the air and said, "Fine. If this is what you want, then this is what you'll have." he then began walking away, "I'll get out of your hair." Michelle clenched her jaw and shook her head, "Yeah. Then I suppose you're going to kill someone else, right?- Because, you know, it's pretty much what you do. Kill people. Right?" Luciano stopped dead in his tracks, he turned around and he began to think about what she had meant by that statement. He looked up at her and he said, ". . . That man hurt Sabe. . and not just him, but so many other people," he walked closer to Michelle, "He had ruined so many lives. . Countless number of lives, and he enjoyed it. Every minute. ." he clenched his jaw and stared down at her, "And what would you have done, Michelle?- Huh? What would you have done?"
Michelle gave him a deadly glare, and she said, "I wouldn't have killed him, if that's what you really mean to ask. Unlike you, I don't let my personal feelings get in the way of what's really important. I wouldn't kill someone just to satisfy my lust for vengeance."
"Michelle, the only lust I have, is for you. . Only you."
Michelle scoffed, then turned her back to him once more. She folded her arms again, and she said, "I would believe you just a bit more if you would have actually demonstrated it the right way," she finally turned to look at him, she was holding back tears, "Luciano, you are not a one man army. You are not indestructable; you CAN actually die if you're not careful. I don't care if you had the best intentions. I don't care. The people, here, are NOT your damn soldiers. They are your friends- and my friends, too. Skotti is in charge. Not you."
Luciano hated being talked down to, especially by a woman that he saw as his equal- one of his few equals. Nevertheless, he stood up straight and continued to take this from her.

Luciano was now leaning against the stone railing, Michelle was still so angry at him for what happened earlier, ". . . And what's worse is that you KILLED him, Luciano, you killed him when he could have served a purpose." Luciano growled at her and he said, "You knew damned well that he would NOT have talked- not even to me!! And I blew out both of his shoulders, and shot off his ******** scrotum!!" Michelle snapped back, she shouted at him, "Yes he would!! If you would have spared him, my father would have done something!!"
"Yeah!! He would have shot the ******** after ONE question!"
Michelle suddenly got angry, Luciano was wearing his metal lip rings, so she used her power to tug at them. Luciano let out a scream, then Michelle forced him to his knees. Luciano growled to her, "Two can play this game. . ." before he could even think about using his power on her, Michelle tugged a bit harder and Luciano let out another scream. He eventually gave up struggling. Michelle looked down at him, but instead of maintaining her threatening persona, she let go of her anger and kissed Luciano's forehead. "I love you so much, but you're so foolish, Luciano,. . . you can't live for vengeance. You can't live to take a life, find another enemy, and take their life as well. Everyone on this planet deserves a right to live- No matter how Evil they may be." Michelle was now sitting on the floor in front of her man. Luciano looked down at the ground, now ashamed of his earlier actions. Michelle leaned close to him, and she nuzzled his nose. She said in a whisper, ". . Work on this. . yeah? You'll be happier that way." She kissed him on the lips then got up to go call her parents. Luciano stayed on the ground; thinking about everything she said. He didn't know he came off to be such a tyrannical dictator, and he didn't know that Michelle knew what she knew. Killing off almost every enemy he had just to quence a never ending thirst for revenge. It surprised Luciano, though, he had never seen her use her power like this. Never on him. Normally she was so peaceful, and so against the idea of using her power for other than protecting the ones she loved. As surprised as he was, he respected her even more now. Luciano thought to himself, "Well," he slowly got to his feet "I guess now I had better keep myself in check." he walked back into their bedroom to continue drying off his hair.

Pen stayed for the Reunion of the gang with Luc and Devin being reunited with his dad. However after the touching moments the elf couldn't take being in prison's grab anymore.

She rushed up the stairs to the showers and her own room. Her hair was matted and tangled, the tails dropping like a wounded dog. Taking the longest hot shower she ever took she rid herself of the filth left behind. The torn jeans and small gray t-shirt were more comfortable then she ever thought they would be. Her tails now brushed and tied she looked like a new elf.

"Now lets check Scarf Boy." She said to herself as she went down the steps again, letting her jacket float behind her like a cape.

Skotti finished up his paperwork and threw his arms behind his head with a smile. He sniffed his armpits and nearly threw up thank god that we don't run out of hot water in this place he thought to himself. He walked into his bedroom and saw Devin asleep in his crib and took off his shirt after walking into the bathroom.
after his shower skotti remembered the pleasent cup of tea waiting for him downstairs. He threw on some shorts and ran downstairs to have his tea, and then he thought he would make himself a sandwich, after all, it's the first decent meal he would have in a week.

Luciano finished getting dressed, and all he had to do was throw on his signature coat- the Grizzly Hoodie- and he was good to go. He was so happy Pen gave all of their stuff back to them. Luciano looked at the gold ring Michelle gave him, and smiled.
By now Michelle was about thirty minutes into the phone call with her parents, he could tell she was talking to her mother because Michelle made mention of sex at least six times- and yes, sadly he was counting.
Luciano kissed Michelle on the neck and told her he was going to go outside to make sure their plants were alright. Michelle kissed his cheek, then gave him a little nod of approval then mouthed 'I love you' to him, he smiled and mouthed it back then he left the room.
On Luciano's way down, Michelle came running out of the room, "Babe! My mother needs to talk to you." Luciano cocked his brow, then took the phone from Michelle, "Hello?" he said, then all of a sudden loud sobs could be heard coming from the Ambassador, "LUCIANOOO!!!! (Heavily Sobbing) Thank you SO, SO, SOOO much for keeping my little girl safe!!-" in the backround Luciano could hear Ari shouting, "You're lucky you're Horatio's grandson! Otherwise your balls would've been-" the Ambassador chimed in again, "Thank you so much!!! Stop over for dinner sometime!! Honey, we love you!!"
Now weirded out, Luciano said, "Here, Michelle, they want to talk to you." he handed her the phone back then darted down the steps. Michelle giggled and she said into the phone, "You two need to settle down. You scared Luciano. ."

( Well ********. Can I have it to where Sabe's recovered just enough to participate, but still a tad off? Or is the time skip going to be almost a month long ahead? ._.;; )

(Oh well. To everyone in the Rp, enjoy some filler.)

Waffle was now in the lobby, staring at the ceiling and the bullet hole near the chandelier. It still wasn't fixed, but it didn't bother her either. In fact, it gave her a more nostalgic feeling. She could still recall nearly a year ago when she used to laze around the lobby on the couch and stare at the ceiling, like she was doing now, or polishing her orb. Other times, she would train hard and blast the rather expensive test dummies to smithereens in mere seconds. A small grin appeared on her face as she rolled over, but her face looked more inquisitive as she recalled the shift from past to present. Well, look at things now. Skotti's a dad now, more people moved in, some people we considered to be our greatest rivals are now either dead, disappeared or missing. I heard Luciano and Michelle were getting married someday, but that's almost exactly like me. ********, Mum's going to start whining about me not being married and having no kids. His letters got more hostile too, and Dad and Kassa and nearly everyone else at home had just been acting plain weird recently.
