Kietaru saw another girl walk into the springs and wave at them, she smiled. Finally, maybe the fun will come back since another person is here, this new guy was being a bummer... She waved back at the girl. "Hello to you too!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shojuto frowned when the guy mentioned picking up ladies and what not, but completely left the matter. He didn't want to bother with it. He looked at Kana and her smile seemed to cheer him up again. "Well if anything is bothering you, you know you can tell me right? If you feel comfortable doing so." He didn't know why all of a sudden he felt so close with this girl, but he did. As weird as it was, seeing as he'd just met her, he felt like he'd known her forever.

Aly waves in return and smiles in greeting to Kana and Kietaru as they wave, then looks around at everybody. It seemed something rather... interesting was going on, though Aly was, as usual, completely confused by it. Aly sits back after a moment and sighs in content, letting the warm waters wash over her. Whatever was going on, it didn't seem too important.

As he got out of the spring, blue flames erupted around him as he swung the towle around his back. He was now fully dressed and walked back into the changing rooms. There, he saw Kumizu. Looking cross, he walked up to the boy and poked him hard in the forehead with hsi index and middle fingers. Fool! That girl was cute! What the hell are you doing here? He waited for an answer, hoping it was good.

He stopped and turned to Cal, nodding. "Don't worry, I don't." My memory is too good. He pretended to look over his cane as Cal mention that he was a "swell guy".
Kumizu had set his towel and cane down and was in the middle of pulling up his pants when Cal walked in. "Look, I... did you- do you know Layda?"

Kana blinked at Kumizu as he made to leave, shaking her head. "I said you're not!" she cried hastily. "You don't have to go!" She hated the idea that someone would leave simply because they thought they were making her uncomfortable. Her ears drooped again as she saw him enter the changing room.
She glanced at the other male as he spoke her her again, her eyes still slightly wide and face still red. "U-um, ok...?" she blinked, then stared as he moved away and then seemed to disappear again.
She stared at the water for a moment, almost feeling overwhelmed. Her towel slipped down in the back once again and she quickly jerked it up to cover the scar, ears drooping once more and tail curled around her waist. But she looked up sharply as Shojuto spoke again, tilting her head as she listened, ears perking slightly. She blinked at him and then smiled softly, nodding her head. "Yes, thank you..." She looked around at all the people she'd just met and thought about how nice they'd been to her, and once again couldn't help thinking how lucky she was.

He is caugfht in surprise by this question, but answers truthfully. Not really. I've met only a few people here so far. Why? He think he may know the reason, but Cal didn't want to jump to conclusions.

"She doesn't go here. She was-is at the other guild." He realized what it sounded like as he strapped the sash around him. "Well, look, we aren't going out, I'm just worried about her, and lately she's been on my mind, with my father, and..." Kumizu continued on, talking hurriedly.

Kietaru was surprised at what her brother had said to Kana. He was never centimental with people, sometimes to her, but never to people he'd just met. There was something about this girl that obviously made him comfortable, and that made Kietaru happy. She'd never seen Shojuto like this, it was wonderful to see her brother smile and laugh like he did when they were children without a care in the world, unlike now. She smiled while looking at him and Kana, he obviously liked her more then he was leading on, she could tell he was being subtle but she knew him long enough that he was holding it in so Kana wouldn't be freaked out. She knew saying anything about it would not only ruin the moment, but also ruin his mood so she kept quiet.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shojuto blushed slightly, he didn't understand this feeling. Why was he so giddy? Why was he smiling and laughing so much, things he never used to do? He just didn't get it. But he was pulled from his thoughts when he saw Kana's towel fall down slightly and show a scar on her back. He wanted so badly to just burst out and ask who the hell dared do that to her, but he knew it was none of his buisness and he didn't want to push a subject on her that she might not want to discuss. Besides, he didn't really know how it got there, or if it was even inflicted by a person purposly. And the last thing he wanted was to bother her or push her away.
[[I have to get to bed soon so I'll post again tomorrow or something sweatdrop sorry about this.]]

[That's fine! I'll most likely be here tomorrow too Flower. ^^; You could PM me if you want, to let me know when you're on.]
Kana blinked between the twins, tilting her head as neither said anything, but returning Kietaru's smile and grinning clueless at Shojuto as he blushed. The sudden thought that they'd seen her scar popped into her head and she pulled the towel even tighter about herself. I hope that's not it, she thought to herself, ears drooping very slightly again. I can't worry them further...
She began absently running her fingers through the water instead, watching the ripples it made. She was still a bit surprised at how easily she'd grown used to the water. It's not so bad after all! she though cheerfully, ears already perking again. Her tail was still wound around her waist, the tip flicking against her stomach every now and then.
After a moment, she blinked back at the twins curiously and then leaned back against the wall, back pressed firmly and arms still trailing through the water in front of her. A soft smile remained upon her face as she played with the liquid, amusing herself easily.

He shook his head, misjuding the entire situation. Though irrelevant to Kumizu's situation, he thought he should elarn, if not remember this lesson is love. Oye... Pal, ya gotta choose. Flirting is fine, but when ya choose, remember to stick with it as long as ya can. Later. He then left the hot springs in a flash of flames, going to a new area.

Kumizu silently watched him disappear. He knew he wasn't in love with her; she was more of a sister to him. At the same time, he felt so worried, needing to be closer. He shook his head. Now wasn't the time. With one breath, in and out, he walked out.
He put his cane, and this time, his boots by the side of the spring and slid in next to Kana. "Nothing to worry about. You can look now." It was another tease, partly because he had nothing of interest to talk about and partly because he wanted to get his mind off of what happened.

Kana's ear twitched and she glanced over again, seeing Kumizu returning. She blinked, then grinned at him. "Welcome back!" she cried. "I thought you'd left us!" She paused at his comment, face reddening again. "E-eh?" she stammered, bowing her head again quickly. "Um, ok..."
Then she froze sharply, looking back at him. "I-I mean, not 'ok' that I'll look, just 'ok' that I know now and-" She stopped suddenly, realizing she was probably freaking out over nothing and making herself look foolish by doing so. "I mean, nevermind..." she said quietly, sinking into the water so only her eyes and up were visible.

You've been acting like a child all day. Fix yourself. "I'm sorry. It's just that a lot has happened today, and when I'm uncomfortable I joke around." I should hunt down Cal. I could use a drink myself. "Don't worry. I'm not still making you uncomfortable, right?" He put his hand, still ungloved, on her shoulder underwater. "Relax. That's why we came, remember?" He used the words for himself as well as her. Being back in the water, with everything dying down, he was starting to feel better.

"Well then it looks like I've become dead weight", he said opening his eyes and smiling foolishly as he sat back up. Grabbing his dirk strapped it back on his leg as he climbed out of the hot spring. "Well it was fun Ms. Kana", he said waving good bye to her. "Don't be afraid to call if you need anything", he said as he went back into the changing area as he began to pull out his things. "Ah, first thing first", he thought to himself as he began to towel off. Drying his hair he reached behind his head and grabbed his long flowing hair and pulled it over his shoulder as he began to dry it. "The down side of having long swishy hair I suppose", he thought out loud.

[Last post of the night as Kana! ^^;;]
Kana shook her head, still underwater, causing small waves to be pushed up from either side of her. Then she opened her mouth to reply, eyes widening as a flurry of bubbles escaped her mouth instead. She quickly sat up again, blushing from a combination of embarassment at that small mistake she just made and the fact Kumizu's hand was on her shoulder now.
She shook her head again, accidentally flinging a bit of water in all directions. "No, you're fine," she nodded, then thought to herself, All I'm doing is causing people to worry about me! Her ears drooped slightly but she continued smiling at Kumizu. "You're right though. Gotta relax..." She slid back down into the water to her neck, staring at the surface cross eyed without realizing it.
She blinked towards Tam as he suddenly spoke up again, and tilted her head to the side. "You don't have to go..." she murmured, ears drooping a tiny bit more. Her bright eyes followed as he picked up his things and climbed out, waving. She paused just a moment and then smiled, waving back. "Ok, I'll see you later!" she said, hoping it would be true. She watched until he disappeared into the training rooms and then turned back to the water, sinking back to her neck as she trailed her fingers along the surface again, following the movement with her eyes.
