Welcome to Gaia! ::

A look of confusion was on her face as the ball caught her interest. “I know that Hibachi is good but… What the hell is this?” She walked over to it, looking at the item but refusing to touch it. Who knew if she was going to end up breaking it or not? Curiosity was coming off her, however, and she reached out, her hand hovering around it before she looked up. “How is this going to do what we need it to do? It’s… well… a ball…”

Kit nodded, going back and forth between some of the new papers and Joker. ‘Yup.” She smiled some. “Just sign it and then… well…. We have the house, Joker. They have the check from where the safety of it had gotten checked on and then there are some other things about the condition and all that.” Kit was beginning to get excited, smiling more. She hadn’t lived in a house since she had been a little kid, and now she had one… Well, it apparently was in her name, which Kit didn’t like at all, but Joker was going to be there with her and that was going to make everything perfect for her. “Community rules and such but… I can read those to you later.”

The realtor couldn’t understand what Joker was saying but soon Kit laughed, just hugging him tight as the man began to finalize everything. Kissing him deeply, Kit shook her head as they parted, stroking his cheek, “People don’t like it, depending on where you go, but it’s not like they can arrest you for it.” She grinned, snuggling against him. “I don’t look good in all stripes anyway… I don’t think you’d look too bad as a jailbird, though.” She glanced over at him, imagining him as one. “Hmm…”

Eyes widening as the object turned into the spider, Dusk soon laughed, shaking her head. “We’re keeping Hibachi as a friend… no making him angry.” She would have to remind her group not to do anything to him, no stealing… but he did have some nice things… “Now, my next question… How are we getting this on her? I can use shadows but… is there another way that you had in mind? Is this thing durable enough to withstand them? I mean, I’ve used them on Hibachi’s equipment before and it did fine, but is this one a special case or something?” She continued to look at the ball, a bit amazed. Hibachi definitely did some amazing things with his equipment.

The realtor continued to glance back up every so often but for the most part… he didn’t know what the others were even doing. Sighing softly, he soon handed them the final papers, Kit translating for them both to sign before she grinned. “Hm… Last time I checked, women weren’t in male prisons…” She laughed again, keeping close as she didn’t care about the teasing, actually enjoying it as she put her signature on the paper. It didn’t feel real, owning a house, but… the moment that Joker signed it and they were handed the key, they would have the house. They would really have the house.

Laughing, Dusk nodded as she sat back on the desk, bringing Kyoshi to sit near her again. “Hmm… Ziggy would go, but not to turn in his resignation papers… He’s not going to resign unless she fires him, Kyo.” She kissed his forehead, thinking about that. “I have some papers that I’d like her to see… it’s some border issues where I need to mark down just where it is that my people need to be wary about.” Dusk was angry about all of that… the fact that her people could be threatened if they tried to go to Area 6, but oh well. Nothing she could do about that. “Also, the council wanted to post trade agreements, seeing as they didn’t think that closing the borders would benefit us now that our people have been introduced to others… They don’t know about these laws yet, by the way…”

The realtor’s eyes were wide as he was yelling at Joker, trying to pry him off of him but the woman couldn’t help but laugh at him. “Joker… Joker! Get off of him!” Laughing some, she touched Joker’s cheek while apologizing to the man. He wasn’t angry, but surprise was obvious on his features. It wasn’t something that any of them considered normal, being hugged by a complete stranger who you knew nothing at all about. Kit was a bit used to Joker by now, but she knew that the other had to be having some issues with him. Taking the key, she smiled wide before kissing his forehead. “Let’s go, Joker.”

Dusk sighed, shaking her head. “I… I don’t know. I know that Rave and Kalore know everything that’s going on, up to Ziggy’s incident.” She bit her lip. “But um… when I asked if they were going to be here anytime soon… they hung up on me.” It still ticked her off that she had been forced to deal with that, but it wasn’t like she couldn’t change anything. “Honestly? I’m a bit worried about what Kalore’s going to do. Rave will be here soon because we have a council meeting at the end of the day and he’s supposed to bring up getting rid of the council officially… but if he’s not here, I’m not too sure on how that’s going to go. As for Ziggy… I don’t think that he’s going to have too many problems. He’ll probably deliver it, try to be diplomatic, then leave. He’s got Ali to watch over.”

Kit laughed more as they began to go and she rolled her eyes, “I’m not going on your shoulder again… but I will do this.” She got on his back, her long legs wrapping around his waist as she grinned, kissing his cheek. “I’ll do this instead. This alright?” Her arms were clasped in front of his chest and she continued to smile at the other. Hopefully he didn’t regret doing this for her… “We still need to get your car that’s at the house… then we can go ahead and go home and begin to pack. I don’t have that much stuff anyway.” Two beds, a couch, two tables, a stereo system… and a lamp. That was really it other than two chairs. Wow, she really needed to get more stuff.

She shook her head, keeping close to him, “I don’t think that they did it with any other reason other than shock and surprise… I mean, I really don’t see them doing that for any other reason.” Looking up at him, Dusk gave Kyoshi the look. “Can you really think that ordering Rave to do something, while he’s ticked off, is honestly going to do anything? Really? I doubt that he’s going to listen. He doesn’t have his phone on him which is why none of us got a hold of him before, and I’m pretty sure that he and Kalore aren’t going to be going everywhere together. So, no, I haven’t thought of ordering him. that might just… well, end up badly.”

Laughing, Kit rolled her eyes, “You are such a perv!” But she didn’t mind it. Smiling some more at the other, she rested comfortably on him as they made it to the new house. “I want to call Kalore and make sure that he’s doing alright… see how far he got with finding Rave and invite him with us if he wants to come. I’m worried about him.” resting her chin on his shoulder, Kit then nodded. “And going out to get something to eat would be a good thing… and then we can design ]our home. It’s not just my house… you’re going to be there as well, Joker.” She smiled at him, kissing his cheek. “You requested the basement, so that can be designed however you want it, along with the rest of the house too. I’m not really picky.”

“And do you realize how he probably killed Sin? No offense, but he could probably kill all of us and I really don’t want to tick off the Shadow King… but if he’s not here by the time that the meeting needs to come, then I’ll get a hold of him. I trust Rave not to do anything stupid but… I also trust myself to know that he could kill me if it came down to it, and I like living, thank you very much.” Dusk sighed, shaking her head. “And yeah, we do need to focus on that… We didn’t lose too many people and we can rebuild faster than the Areas can… added to that, my biggest focus is getting rid of the council and setting up a people’s council but I’m not too sure that I want to dive into that too soon. Having power right now, nearly full power, is more beneficial for the moment.”

She got into the car, rolling her eyes a bit as a slow grin spread on her face, “if you want… ooh, ooh, we should also add insane messages.” Kit nodded some to him, hoping that he was joking… but she was pretty sure that Joker wasn’t serious about that. Well, maybe he was serious about the straight jacket idea, but she wasn’t going to tell him that, of course! Actually, it would be a bit amusing… Chuckling some, the woman leaned back into the seat as she looked up at the sky, still smiling. “So… where would you like to go eat, Joker? Well… what do you want to eat, I guess I should ask…” Not like Joker actually knew anywhere to go eat.

“Which is why I deal with him better than anyone else and he deals with me better than anyone else… I know that he’s going to work when he needs to, and I trust that he’s not going to go into a rage.” Sighing some, Dusk shook her head before touching his hand, looking a bit upset. “I’m afraid that you can’t be there for this one.” She kissed his palm, frowning some. “I wish that you could but I really don’t think that it would help anything. There are some parts of Ellwood that are in need of some repair; the people who owned it ended up dying in the attack so… there are debates on what to do with it. When we go to that meeting, could you work on that for me? I don’t really know how to work on buildings legally…”
