"I kinda don't want to... but alright." Bunko replied with a sigh before she looked down and away from Kikyo, moving from the hallway. She then led her to the living room, sitting down on the couch with a depressed sigh.
"Well, sorry. She needed it just as bad as I did." Toph replied with a light sigh, taking out her tiara and placing it on the nightstand as well. At Luka's sudden exclamation, Toph couldn't help but begin to crack up once more, but a sudden pain from her shoulder made her take it down a notch or two. "Yes, Luka. You're a big girl, we know. Don't worry 'bout it." She told her friend with a smile as she took down her hair from its usual bun, noticing it that it was long enough to reach her hips. Hmm, perhaps a haircut was to be in order soon..

Arthur looked over at her with sad eyes, not for his own situation anymore, but for what happened. "P-Possession?" He queries. Suddenly he feels a bit of a sinking feeling, wondering if he would have been able to perform an exorcism, or a few dozen spells he knew off the cuff. But that didn't change what had happened. He might be able to summon spirits from the afterlife, and communicate with ghosts that still hang around.. but there was no bringing someone back for good. Unfortunately. "I'm.. I'm truly very sorry to hear that."

<"Well, Scout is here, I don't know if you've met him yet, but he, Soldier, and the Engineer are all American. Heavy is here, too; he is Russian. Demoman is Scottish, Sniper is Australian, and Spy is French,"> Medic answered, leaving himself out.
Spy shook his head. "I kill both Faya and your Spy, and you say that? Unbelievable." Leaving that out, it was still unbelievable for a BLU Scout to be saying anything like that to him. "Why don't you go to zhe cafeteria? I 'aven't seen you eat anything ozher than your soda pop."

Scout frowned lightly. "I was tryin' to compliment you back. Don' ruin it." He scratched the back of his head and looked down. Come to think of it, maybe that was why he'd been so tired lately. "Yeah, I guess. Wonder if they got sandwhiches like Heavy akes. Those are good. Oh! Maybe they got a cheese burger an' barbeque!" He now had a distraction.
Gakupo nodded lightly and took his haori off before he folded it and sat it down carefully next to Luka's bed. It was nice having his friends around. It definately helped to keep the pain ot a minimum.
Meiko laughed loudly along with Toph. "I can't believe she fell for that!"
Luka growled lightly and crossed her arms. "You can sleep on the floor!"
Oomizu nodded lightly. "It's not your fault. I feel like I could have done something better to help keep this from happening." She sighed lightly and shook her head. "Oh well. I should probably go home soon. I haven't really spent time with him since last night..."

"Well? What are you waiting around 'ere for? Go find out," Spy replied, smiling slightly. For himself, he had a different destination. "If you're lucky, zhey might even 'ave some apple pie." Again he was reminded Scout was still a boy; he was too easily distracted. Good thing, right now, the boy could really use it.

Scout looked up in thought. "I haven' had apple pie since I left home. Sure would be nice if they had some..." He looked to Spy a little before he looked away. "Guess you're not wantin' to come along, too. Tha's fine. You suck when it comes to being good company."

"Indeed," Spy replied, turning back around. "I want time to myself. If you need someone's shoulder to cry on, why not look for other group members while you're down in zhe cafeteria?" Having eight older brothers would likely make Scout respond better to teasing than actual comforting. Still, he wasn't supposed to be the person to provide either.

"Me?" Toph asked as she pointed to herself, looking actually a bit scared at the thought. But when she realized that it was intended for Meiko, she just grinned. "Oh, c'mon Luka, it's all in the name of playful fun." She told her friend, trying to calm down the girl some with her statement.

Scout rolled his eyes and tried huffing, but it sounded more like a sniffle. "I don't go cryin' ta othahs." He lamely threw his bat over his soulder and walked into the cafeteria. Yeah, Spy was back to being an a**.
Luka looked to Toph and rolled her eyes with a light smile as she started taking her shirt off like a vest. "Oh course not you. It's your bed. Why would I kick you off of our own bed?"
Luka let her gaurd down. Meiko jumped up, cupped her hands and, "FRONTAL ASSAULT!!!"
Luka screamed and fought to ge the shirt off the rest of the way before she started beating Meiko with it. After a couple of seconds of that, she started scooting back so her back was to th wall, her knees were pulled up, and her hands were over her chest. She had a look on her face like she was being violated.
Gakupo finally began to giggle before he full on laughed. He got onto Luka's bed and huggled her while rubbing his cheek against the pink-haired girls. "Aww, poor Luka. Meiko's picking on you again. I'll save you!"
Luka whimpered out, "Get. Off. Mee-ee-ee."
Kikyo sighed ad followed Bunko. She sat on the couch and lightly put a hand on her shoulder. "I know you don't, but you can't keep her n her room forever. Besides, her soul would not gain any true rest if you tried." She sat up and folded her hands in her lap.

Spy let Scout have the last word, as he continued on his way to the stairs. Why had he even talked to him at all? Was he growing fond of the boy, too? That wouldn't be good. All this time, all that training, all those times he's had to do terrible things to people he'd grown attached to, and it seemed like it was coming undone all at once. He could still kill people he hadn't spent much time with and not care; BLU Spy was proof of that. It was good he was going somewhere he wasn't likely to be found; he really did need to get over killing Faya by himself. He would get too close to anyone that tried to help him through this. Already too much of his time was spent worrying about others. Hell, he was practically afraid of the next time the whole group would see combat, thanks to Francis. What if Spy got hurt while Francis was fighting? Things in general just weren't looking good at all...

"Dear god," Yeah, it was totally a face-palm moment. And that was exactly was she did before she slowly slid it down her face, removing it soon after. She then hopped up, off of her bed, before she walked over to Luka and Gakupo, rubbing her arms in a comforting manner. "Calm. Down." She told her sternly, staring into her eyes with her pale ones.
"What does a soul do after it dies, Kikyo?" Bunko then asked, mainly out of the blue as she looked down to the ground. "I see your soul collecters get them from people who die, but I never know what actually happens to them after that."

Luka continued to whimper lightly with tears in her eyes. "My bubble... They're in my bubble..."
Gakupo smiled lightly and kissed Luka on the forehead in a brotherly fashion, "I guess this is your way of saying you want Meiko and I to settle down and go to sleep?"
Meiko crawled onto the bed and sat at the end on her knees with a point. "Aww, but I'm not tired yet." She was kindly shushed by Gakupo.
Luka nodded with a sniffle. "Uh-huh. You two are too much for me to handle." She then shot a look to Meiko, challenging her to say "Not the first time you've said that."
Gakupo took one finger and pressed it below his bottom lip in thought. "How about we make a deal."
Luka got a reluctant look on her face. "Deal?" She looked to Toph for the knowlege of back-up if it was something Luka didn't want to do.
Kikyo was surprised by the sudden question. She hadn't fully expected it to be asked. She smiled kindly and closed her eyes. "Before, when I lived in my old world and was not fully among the living, the soul collectors used to bring me souls to help keep me alive... But then I came to this world and was lucky enough to be fully living once more..." She paused before she continued on with her explanation. "The soul collectors... They gather the souls of those who have passed on. They can sense if they have been good or have only caused wicked deeds during their time among the livings. From there, they take them to their final resting place."
Pain. Hiruko was in pain. He had been through out most of the day. He felt sick to his stomach. Damn sun. It was nothing but evil to him. The coming of the afternoon and then sunset was a relief to him since, up until then, the un just s happened to be on that side of the building and made it past his curtains. He could not wait for the window to be fixed. Just because a window is tacked to the wall doesn't mean that it won't still blow in the wind... Ugh, pain. he slowly sat up in his bed, hardly having gotten any sleep. Damn sun. He groaned lightly as he changed into clean clothes and fixed his hair so that it wasn't as obvious that the ends were scorched. Maybe a hair cut was in order... Another time, though. For now, he needed entertainment, so why not head to the cafeteria? he picked up his brief case and cane and headed out of his room, locking the door behind him.
Scout found barbeque. That and cheeseburgers with bacon and milkshakes and pie! Comfort food. Well, for him, any ways. When all you've had are burnt eggs stollen from RED Base and sandwhiches for a couple of years, you come to find everything else as comfort food. He sat at a table by himself and wolfed down his meal hungrily. Yeah, it had been a long time since he ate, and eating was giving him back his energy. No wonder all he had wanted to do was nap today!

"Oh sh-sh-shhh. It's okay. Bubbles get violated all the time. But better by friends than enemies." God that was ironic. Pushing that painful memory way, way back into the back of her mind, she wrapped her arms around Luka, rubbing her back in a friendly way. When Gakupo mentioned a deal, she let go of her with a confused look in her eye. She made eye contact for a moment before looking back to him. "What kind of deal?" She asked, a brow quirked.
"So they can make sure she goes to a good place.." Bunko mused, her face solemn and her body unmoving. After a short pause, she looked up to Kikyo, now a bit more determined. "I want to build Faya a funeral pyre. So she could go to the afterlife a true hero, with a hero's burial."

Gakupo smiled innocently. "Sing? Please, Luka Onee-chan?"
Meiko perked up and grinned. "Oh, yeah! You haven't sung for us for a long long time! Pleeease~?"
A sigh of relief. It was just that simple. Luka nodded lightly. "Alright. Finish getting ready for bed, both of you, and I will sing." God she felt like their mother right now.
Both looked to each other happily before they got out of Luka's space and finished anything they needed to to get ready to sleep. Gakupo stripped down to the one-piece body suit under his samurai clothing and took of the boots that blended in with the outfit. Meiko, meanwhile, took off any accesories and put them somewhere where they wouldn't get lost.
Kikyo nodded lightly to he request. It was resonable to want to do so for her sister. "Do you want to do so where the orphanage was? She did love being there with you parents and the children..." It would seem fit.
