As Yuri entered the room, Rin followed in after her, closing the door behind her, "Of course it is Yuri." Rin then walked over and took a seat on her knees, at the table, on one of the cushions. "I just wanted to ask if there were some sort of rules I need to follow. Or if there's some sort of catch. Not that I'm saying you're sneaky or anything, I just wanted to make sure," Rin said to Yuri, calmly. This was her serious side that was usually used only when alone with Yuri, while her fun, and more whimsical side was what was seen by everyone who ever met her.'
Tsuzuki frowned as he continued to place grocery items away, "Should a dislike of a person really be a tradition? Should it be that way? Should there ever be a person, or should we ever use another person to make ourselves feel better? Is that right?" Tsuzuki didn't like that answer, it didn't sound right, or fair. Tsuzuki had gone through school, subject to ridicule, and he couldn't think that there was someone out there, meant for that. Besides that, he didn't understand what was so great about being accepted into the zodiac anyways, what true benefits did it have? None that he was aware of.

 Yuri shrugged, she hadn't really thought about it too hard when she made the decision. "I don't want you bringing any men into the house, even pimply grocery store bag boys. We can't risk any more incidents." she said very calmly, her large heavily mascaraed eyes staring into Rin's, cold and unblinking.
Jun inhaled deeply from his cigarette, blowing smoke out the window. "I never said the world was fair, 'Zook. And while I don't really like it, this is the reality. And Yuri...I don't want to say she has it hard compared to us but doing what she does everyday is no easy thing. Plus there are a lot of things about her that you don't know. I don't think she functions the way you and I do."

Rin frowned, and crossed her arm, pouting, "No men Yuri? No men at all? What's life worth living without glorious men? Though, not all males are as glorious as we wish they all were..." Rin then smiled and nodded, easily getting over it. "Alright Yuri, whatever you say. I'll just have to call Jun over everytime I go shopping to carry the bags," Rin then laughed and added reassuringly, "I kid. You're of course no restricting the men of the zodiac right? I would assume not, but I've learned a thing or two about assuming." Rin's personality had returned back to her whimsical and charismatic state, since her true concern had been laid to rest, so she was a bit more comfortable, knowing her answer.
Tsuzuki then looked to Jun, intrigued and wide-eyed. "You mean...She's an alien? Or a zombie? Or something?" How Jun put it, "I don't think she functions the way you and I do," had filled Tsuzuki's head with fantastical thoughts that she was inhuman, or some sort of other creature, taking the "funtion" literally in his comment.

 Nari had taken her jacket off once they entered the kitchen, she needed to calm down and being stuffy wasn't helping any. Once Jun entered she tensed a bit but it didn't show. Hearing the two talk about her she had stopped her job and just stood listening.
On the note about using the cat to make them fell better she left. She picked up her bags and crept up the stairs. She had learned to control her short temper but this was just to much. How can they just speak of me as if I'm not there! Her grip on her bags tightened until her knuckles turned white.
Tsuzuki she look into our history, then he might really know why everyone hates the cat. She rubbed her hands as she circled her new room like a caged animal. She soon collapsed on her bed with a sigh burying her face deep into the soft pillow. She kicked furiously trying to vent some of her anger.
They could have warned me she was here! Left a note or one of them could of been waiting! A scream escaped her mouth as she buried her face deeper into the pillow to muffle its sound.

"I doubt Jun would mind carrying your bags." she smirked, raising her eyebrows a bit, "Or doing anything else you may need done." Yuri laughed. She had no problem discussing people's personal lives with Rin, who she liked to think of as an older sister she could gossip with.
Jun sneezed. "Oh dear, I do believe someone was talking about me just now." he said, and sighed. "Yes, Zook, Yuri is an alien, here on a mission to enslave the human race, and we Sohmas are the first ones to be taken control of."

"Oh really? Hmm," Rin replied with a grin, "Is he not with you all day? I didn't think he'd have the time to waste on me." Rin then laughed, "Perhaps then, he has too much free time on his hands." Rin then added, "Do you think he'd be happy with you volunteering him for manual labor for me?" Rin doubted it, since he didn't seem to excited to help with the groceries today, but, if Yuri told him ot do anything, Rin knew he would do it.
Tsuzuki gasped,"Really!?! I've got to warn Nariko!" Tsuzuki then, like a child, ran out of the kitchen through the entry way and to the front porch, where he had last seen her; Leaving Jun in the kitchen alone. She wasn't there. He then ran inside and knocked on the first story bathroom, no response. He then ran upstairs, and could hear her, and some muffled noise. Either a moaning, screaming or creeking. Tsuzuki followed the noise and found the room it was coming from. He slid the door open and saw Nariko, with her face stuffed in a pillow. "Nari?" Tsuzuki asked quietly, "What are you doing? You're not trying to smother yourself are you?"

Nari paused hearing Tuszuki's voice. "Maybe..." was her muffled reply. She hadn't been thinking of that but smothering herself to death sounded pretty good right now. It was a better death then being locked in the cat's cell when her time came.
Lets face it, she knew one day Yuri or one of her followers where going to come and drag her off to the wretched place. She had been there only once when she was nine. She had been shown the room, had been told if she wasn't good that this was her fate. She still remembered the scent, it haunted her nightmares.
Perhaps if she died the next cat would have a better life he or she may be more loyal. Yeah and pigs can fly. It was tradition as Jun put it. The cat was meant to be disliked. The cat wants to fit in but doesn't at the same time. The cat will never be accepted.

Tsuzuki frowned as he ran ove and hopped onto the bed, on top of her, laying across her back. "Why would you do that? Then I wouldn't be able to see your pretty face anymore!" Tsuzuki sighed and he fell limp over her, just playing around with her, but making it easier for him to be pushed off, but he doubted she would do that. "I can't imagine my life without you Nari. Our wedding would totalyl be post-poned for a while..." he mumbled to himself, thinking about it.
Tsuzuki paused for a moment, and then added, knowing exactly why she said that, "Even if Yuri hates you Nari...I don't hate you...And the truth is, you make me feel worse about myself, since you're good at school and stuff...Me...Not so much. I love you Nariko, and to me, it doesn't matter what you are, you'll still be the same Nari to me."

"Oh he'll do anything I tell him to." Yuri said coyly, and it was true, she had Jun wrapped around her finger. If she asked him to jump off a cliff or ingest arsenic, he probably would. It's not like she'd originally intended for it to happen, but she'd soon realized that it had its benefits. She had become the head of the family at an early age and much of the work had become too difficult for her to do alone, so having an assistant came in handy.
((It feels so weird playing a horrible person. D: ))

Nariko buried her face deeper into the pillow and sighed. Tsuzuki didn't understand, The only reason she was good in school was because she didn't have a life. She barely talked to anyone in the Sohma family or Zodiac, and she had no friends outside of school. Tsuzuki and Rin where probably the closest thing she could call a friend.
"Zook..." She sighed rolling over and sitting up. She petted his bright orange hair for a moment then pulled him into a hug. He was just so sweet at times even though it seemed he was completely oblivious. She wished he would just forget about her sometimes.
Wedding, love, life. Those words made her laugh. She had no life, so how could she be a part of someone's? She wasn't allowed to love, she refused to, it just ended up in heartbreak and she couldn't be a burden to someone like that. Last but not least wedding. In her belief you had to have a life and you had to know how to love to get married. She lacked all of those things which made the third a impossibility.
Sighing she pulled away and put on a smile, "What about Rin?" She asked laughing. "Don't you think if she heard what you said she would be devastated? You can't play with a girls emotions like that Zook." She said tapping his nose with a laugh.

"Anything you say?" Rin asked as she looked at Yuri, with a suggestive grin. She then laughed and smiled at her and asked, "So, will you be staying a while? Are you hungry, or thirsty or anything?" Rin stood, and looked to the door that lead to the kitchen, "I just bought food, so we don't have to go anywhere for it."
Tsuzuki laughed at Nariko's question, "Oh, Rin would understand, she always talks about other guys, and she says I'm too young anyways." Tsuzuki then looked to her when she said, even suggested that he played with a woman's emotions. "ME!?! Playing with emotions? I would never Nari! Never! I am very serious, and I am very honest and I mean what I say, and I really am serious, I am! It's just, my love has to be spread around untill I can find a girl that wants me, and will be serious with me. Don't think I'm playing with your emotions, I'm not. I'm just trying to get you to fall for me," Tsuzuki said with a smile.
((lol...Sorry for being gone a while, I had relatives over, thus couldn't really post, since I was busy.))

((It's chill.))
"Yes, anything." Yuri said, stretching her arms behind her head, "I guess I could stay for a while, I don't really have anywhere else to be right now."
Just then, Jun appeared in the doorway, chuckling. "I just got a phone call from your teacher. She was shouting in my ear about your poor attendance this semester but I told her that you were ill and that I was your personal physician and she calmed down a bit. But really, why cut school? It's better than being cooped up in the main house all day with some foolish tutor. At least you get to be around more kids your own age." he said, though he knew this was the opposite of what Yuri wanted to hear.
Yuri wrinkled her nose at him, biting her lip. She sighed, there really was no use arguing with Jun, and he did have a point, though she wouldn't let him know that. "Whatever. Just sit down. Rin, could you make some tea? Maybe get some crackers? It's been a while, I figured we could chitchat for a bit."

Rin laughed a little, when Jun spoke of Yuri's teacher calling. She was just amused that she would cut school, or anything. Rin could just remember the days when she used to cut class, ah, to be back in school, have somewhere to go, friends, and so on. Rin nodded to Yuri when she asked for tea and crackers. "Sure you want crackers? I mean, if you want, but I have these coconut cookies, or even chocolate covered short-bread cookies that would go good with some Earl Grey tea. Oh, then, what kind of tea would you like?" Rin asked, seeming to go on, as if distracted by different thoughts, and suggestions. Obviously not thinking ahead of her words, since she thought them out loud.
(( It's chill? I never really liked that phrase for some reason, it never really sounded right to me, though people say it, and I know what they mean, but...lol, w/e. ))

((Sorry, my lame stoner friends talk like that and I guess they've rubbed off on me. gonk ))
Yuri perked up. "Ooh, those chocolate short-bread cookies sound delightful, and I guess I'll take you up on that Earl Grey." She hadn't had good tea for a while, at the main house the only kinds that were usually served were very bitter green tea and the cheap kind that came in a can.
Jun sat down next to Yuri, trying to pay no mind to her unladylike way of sitting that nearly revealed her underwear. "Uh, I guess I'll just take some plain tea with honey, if you have any." He wasn't a very avid tea drinker, instead preferring coffee or the occasional mid-morning scotch, but he didn't want to be a bother on Rin. They were the same age and grew up together in the family compound but he really didn't know her that well, so he thought maybe now would be a good time to get to know her better.

Rin smiled and nodded to Yuri and then Jun as she turned and entered into the kitchen. She went to the cupboard and found a packet of "plain tea", and a packet of Earl Grey. The packets of course had a tea bag in them, of the preferred tea. She set the unopened packets on the counter as she then prepared a tea pot by filling it with water, and then placing it on the stove, and turning it on. She then returned to the cupboard and grabbed those chocolate-covered shortbread cookies she was talking about and went back into the dining room they were in. She set the package down on the table as she kneeled again at the table, and looked to the two. "Just have to wait for the water to boil, and I'll brign out your tea," Rin told them with a smile.
(( Oh, it's alright. I've heard it before. I just never liked it. Since I'm more used to "It's alright", or "It's okay". Idk. sweatdrop ))
