"Why do I have to leave? I am not within your boundaries. You do not own the forest, Reeve Rhion."

(( Gotta get to work. Bye-bye! ))
Iri lets her knees fold underneath her and falls back to lay on the ground. Violet eyes close and she breathes a sigh. She's satisfied with her progress for now. What she really needs to do is find Nyl and ask her what's next.
Didn't she say something about making the bombs smaller and more highly explosive? Eh, that's for later. I'm too tired to think much on it.
One wing folds over Iri to keep her warm, the elbow of the other coming up to cushion her head. Time for a good nap.

"You're absolutely right. You're not within the border, but you're on it. And I rather dislike hostile people on the borders of my home. Hereditary thing, y'understand."
He jumps up into the tree, balancing on a limb.

Alice watched Reeve carefully, bringing her hands up behind her head. "Why is it that suddenly because I chose a side, I am suddenly hostile to the other? I am not here to kidnap or hurt anyone. I am here to relax."

"That would be because you chose the wrong side," he says simply. "And last time we met you tied me up."

Alice looked to the side, sitting up slowly. "You do not understand the position I am in, Reeve Rhion. You think that by saying 'You're on the wrong side' is going to change everything when I have had no experience of what that is. You say Orochimaru is wrong, Orochimaru says Neko is wrong... I can not pick through false words. Orochimaru saved my life, took me in, and taught me. Neko did nothing but give me a place to stay. Whom am I supposed to trust with that little information?"

"I don't think saying you're on the wrong side will change anything. You chose, and Orochimaru gained a pawn. And she had better get back t'her side of the board. Why is it you use me full name?"

"I thought it would b polite..." She sighed, shaking her head. "Can you not just let me be, Reeve...?"

His expression softens for the first time, and he sits on the branch, feet dangling.
"I'd love to, really. I wish we could leave each other be all the time. But the fact is, kiddo, you're a threat, e'en if you're not immediately posin' one."

"I don't want to be..." She looked down at the floor below, biting her lip. "I don't want to be called 'hostile' I hate how everyone is treating me because of this, Reeve. I would like to keep being taught under Orochimaru and still be able to see you all..."

He sighs. "And how would we know you're not just spying? It doesn't work that way, Alice. There are no grey pieces on the board."

"What is there to spy on...?" She sighed, shaking her head as she slipped out of the tree. "I wish to speak to Sephiroth..."

"What purpose do I need to visit an old friend? It's not like I could hurt him, being still a minor student... Why? Are you afraid?"

"I just told you, I don't like hostile forces in my home," he says with a shrug of his shoulders. "Simple as that."
