The splash of water made Ice sit up with a jerk, her hand reaching for her blade, only to blink as she realized it wasn't where it should be. With a glare at Io she wiped off her face with her sleeve. "What a great welcoming. You greet all your long lost family members this sweetly?"
Only the annoying ones. Io said, handing Ice the second cup of water to use on TB. You do Aunt TB, I like her.
"..." Ice snorted, then snickered, proceeding to do just that.
We have a newcomer. She crashed. And I figured since she wouldn't be going anywhere soon...
"We'll ask the Geisha." Ice replied.

Sukkubus "So you can!" she said, grinning. She continued to stare up at him, brows knitted. Maybe he couldn't talk because of the mask...her mouth formed a small 'o'. "Maybe it's the ma-" she cut off abruptly at the sound of Cinder's voice. Listening intently, she was surprised to learn that he couldn't talk to her...but he could indeed talk. Her tail bristled a bit in frustration, and she sighed, beginning to climb to her feet. "Well...that's upsetting! I wanted to talk to you!" she said with a small smile. With a thoughtful look, she began to wonder what it'd be like to take care of a masque. Must be interesting.... "Ah, well...you nodded so I s'pose you can understand me. I'm Sukkubus! Sukkubus Everwind. Nice to meet you," she introduced. So, Kenshi could still talk, but with only certain people. He didn't really find the sense in that, but perhaps it wasn't supposed to make sense. It was rather disheartening to find that out, and he felt slightly bad for the young woman as she looked rather disappointed as well. It would have been nice to talk to Su, but perhaps this had some hidden purpose that he yet grasp.
I am sorry you cannot understand me, He said softly to her, more as a reflex now than actually hoping she all of a sudden and quite miraculously understood him. He bowed his head slightly in greeting as she stated her name, and frowned behind his mask. I suppose it doesn't matter if I tell you my name or not, but she said it a moment ago, perhaps you heard her?
Kenshi looked over to Cinder and after a moment of hesitation, lifted his glaive and tilted it in her direction.

As Kasai was getting ready to go clean himself up he heard Kenshi talking to the woman. You will get use to the all the not being able to talk things. Many of the colonists have learned charades and so have we. But until then - Cin tell Sukku that his name is Kenshi and he wanted her to know that. Kasai sat waiting to make sure that Cin was going to answer him.
Wait, what am I now a third party translator... As she said it Cin wished she hadn't, but was also glad that Kenshi couldn't hear her. As she was working Cin wondered slightly where his guardian was.
Just tell her, please? Kasai raised his firey red eyes toward his guardian.
Cin smiles and looks over to Sukku, " Kasai wanted me to let you know that he wants you to know his name is Kenshi." Then going back about her work Cin is happy to see that the batter seems to be getting cleaned up nicely.

Trin was rudely awaken by something cold hitting her. She sat up with a jerk also, looking around, giveing Io and Ice a blank look.
"Um... how'd I get here and why am I wet?" She looked at Ice who was still holding the cup and gladed at her sister before sighing. "Gee... that's for the wake up call....."
Trin turned, sitting correctly on the couch. "So we have a new person? Yeah... the Geisha's been wanting to go to someone. Might as well take her with you that way the she can see and decide."
She looked at her sister and at Io. ".... You two look terrible...... what happened while i was out gathering stones.....??"

"I thought it was good." Ice replied. "Besides, I woke up the same way, so don't complain." She turned, looking at Io for a second. "What happened? The last thing I remember is being in the woods and running into--"
Shush, we can't let-- Io stopped, glancing over at TB as she remembered her aunt could hear her. Um... I'll go get the geisha. She turned, heading for one of the back rooms and grabbing the mask as she tried to think.
She didn't want TB to find out that a masque was claiming to be hers. Not when she didn't know that masque at all. He might be like Lyra, powerful enough to wake himself... and use her aunt for... for something.
She frowned as she headed back to the females. She would just have to find out his intentions. She wouldn't let her new family be ripped apart. Not the way her old one had.

Nika looked at Shiva thoughtfully. Realising that he really hadn't thought of waking Gee up. It seemed to have the most common sense to it...
He shook his head, 'There's really know need to teleport Gee anywhere. I think we should just wake her up.'
There was no point in using Shiva's power for something as pointless as moving a sleeping person who could be easily woken up.
Bizzy nodded in agreement with her brother. It sounded strange to her, listening to him reply to Shiva when she couldn't hear what the other girl had said.

Kataio F "Playful is good! It is better then being dow all the time I would say." Kataio ran her finger along one counter. "As for the dust bunnies nothing a little cleaning won't fix I'd say." She ignored his embarrassment so that he didn't get worse. Kataio was glad that he liked spending time with her, and sooner or later he would get used to it and less flustered, she hoped. Kata moved around the room looking at the area. "I'm going to see if upstairs is the same. I'll be back down in a minute Aricin." She smiled lightly at him and winked. Nodding as Kata started up the stairs, Aricin tried to keep a straight face and failed ducking his head slightly smiling. "Have fun up there... I'm gonna go check out the closets. And see what general supply may have been shoved here for storage..." Watching her retreat up the stairs Aricin blinked after Kata, had she just winked at him? After saying she was going upstairs..... The lanky brit blushed and slid a hand into his dark hair... was she flirting? Or just being playful.... Why did women have to be so confusing.....

Galilee nodded, Sure...Kali still has waffles to eat. And later...can we maybe check on Zahar?
He turned around and heard a loud cursing coming from his new home. Sounds like Kali is frustrated again...she must have burnt her finger....

Fauve stood up and grimaced, at least the floor wasn't as slick, thanks you Cinder and Merci who were cleaning around her.. Fauve looked at the counter and uncovered the breakfast plates... 'I cooked..... I dunno if it's any good but it doesn't have all the flour in it... just that blueberry pancake stuff you had and eggs...' With that Fauve gathered herself up so she didn't drip batter everywhere and headed off to find a bath... with singleminded determination.. she'd have to change into one of Merci's outfits... for now all she had was the one dress and it was filthy... She made a stop in Merci's room and raided her clothes for something that looked big enough for her... she was a little bit larger then her guardian now...
Uriel was sitting on the floor playing with Zeke.. They didn't have any real toys just scarves and odds and ends... When Fauve came in to get clothes he covered his mouth.. and then started laughing again...
Fauve wanted to reach over and strangle Uriel for laughing at her... She got the clothes down and turned around storming out.. down the hall and to a glorious... glorius bath...
Merci moved over and stared at the food... Fauve never cooked before.. so she was almost afraid to try it... there was tons there.. several plates of both.. "Anyone else hungry... I can't eat all of this...."

Trivii came to a hault at the site of the usually imaculate mask framed in the Merci's kitchen door, looking like a battered entre..... She had, had ever intention of going home, but now she stood there biting her lip to keep from smiling at the girl.... "Fauve.... thats a new look for you...." Unitentionally saying it at the same time Fauve had posed her question to Kasai. She swiped her free hand through her hair, as Sani tugged a little hard on the other..
Looking at her chosen, 'that was a little rude... she was talking..' gives a vague gesture at Kasai.... then she turns and speeking to the other Masques.. 'My name's Saniya, and I'm sorry that Trivii couldn't contain her mirth very well....' She dips a small curtsey, then looks at Fauve, 'Were you making breakfast? I can help clean up in here while you go bathe if you like....' Looking for all the world like she wants to be included Sani trails off, 'I understand I can't reach everything, but at least you won't be walking in sticky batter...'
Trivii looks at the girl just in time to meet her eyes.
Giving Trivii a coaxing look.... 'I'm not really tired... you don't mind if I help right?'
Shaking her head Trivii replied, "I don't mind."
(Sorry for the slight lag)

Fauve was still growly from her run in with her "Brother" but she stopped and looked at Saniya and Trivii in the living room... she looked down at Saniya and shrugged 'umm.. well I think Merci and Cinder are cleanin up.. but I made a ton of food for everyone really.. stay and eat if you like.. I have to get this stuff out of my hair... and... it's driving me insane....' She gave her a kind of appologetic look and slipped past them.. Fauve had found the best clear water not to far from camp and she was headed that way...
(for some reason... I'm not sure... Fauve wanted to bathe out there... dun ask.. probably because she wants to be alone while she primps...)
Merci shrugged and opened a cabinet hauling down plates and glasses.. "I guess dig in if your hungry..." She put them down on the counter, making up a plate she called down the hall "Uriel.. come get this and feed Zeke will ya?" She handed the plate off to the little boy.. who disappears again promptly back down to the bedroom.

Trivii nods and meanders into the Kitchen, looking at Merci and Cinder, "Hi... I really just came this way to introduce Saniya..." She nods to the watery masque, "Seeing Fauve like that was really a surprise... well Sani, this is Merci and uh..? We haven't officially been introduced... Cinderfae right? I'm Trivii hellos all around."
Sani nods to the adults, and tips a chair forward brushing off some of the flour, and sliding into it. 'we've been invited, we should eat something... it would be rude if we didn't..
Trivii smiles at Sani, "So Fauve was cooking right? Is she good in the kitchen or is breakfast going to be an adventure?"

Merci smirked and shrugged at Trivii "Dunno... never seen her cook before.... didn't really seem her thing you know? Guess we'll find out if you want to give it a go..." Merci dished up a couple more plates and passed one to Saniya "here you go..." and one off to Trivii.. she kicked up a fork and cut off a piece of the pancake.... so far so good... she could cut through it... she forked it and hesitated... maybe Fauve did something to the batter... or... the butter... there was no way this was just a nice thing to do.... Merci eyed it and looked to make sure the blueberries were blueberries... living with the sisters you get a bit cautious.. when she couldn't find a reason not to eat it.. she put it in her mouth and chewed... Nothing crunchy... nothing... hey... acutally... this wasn't half bad! Merci looked surprised... "It's actually not bad.... I like it..."

Trivii watched Merci eat a piece and give her aproval, then Saniya.
Nibbling delicately Sani gave her review, 'Its warm and buttery.... sweet... really good actually'
"Sani enjoys it..." Nibbling herself Trivii laughed.... "Who knew that your flamboyant little darling had a hidden talent.... They are good.... but I may be biased its been a while since I had blueberry pancakes."

Io walked past the females in the front room, heading for the door, the geisha mask held in her hand. She stepped out of the house, wincing slightly at the brightness of the day, and looked around. There seemed to be a crowd in one of the houses so she went in that direction, quickly catching sight of the newcomer.
She looked at the mask, studying it as she got closer to the newcomer. There was a faint trace of awareness, which was good enough as far as Io was concerned. She stepped forward, watching the woman talk with the others for a second before tapping Su on the shoulder.
She looked over at the nearest masque. Tell your chosen to tell her she's been chosen guardian for the geisha. If she chooses not to accept this right, take the mask back to my chosen.
She shoved the mask forward, not caring who took it. I have a... man I need to find. She finished, turning and heading towards the woods. He had to be near if he watched TB on a regular basis. It was just a matter of finding him.
