Welcome to Gaia! ::

*At least since Nana had awakened, one of the children had come to see her right away. They could all stop by at their leisure, it wasn't as if Nana was going to go anywhere for a while anyhow. Looking over to Mastema for a moment, Nana would nuzzle his shoulder lightly. It was a nice way to spend her first little while awake and coherent again*

Hnn.... heart

*The first time he had left the citadel, Micha had been pulled along and probably against his will. The second time was definitly of his own will, he even left a message of sorts. Unfortunately Mastema didn't seem to appriciate its simplicity of it, and due to Nana being unable to disapline the boy at the time Mastema took care of that. Unfortunately it seemed that Mastema lacked the gentle touch that Nana had with the children, but it was unlikely Micha would do something like that every again. Of course now there was the creature he had brought with him into the citadel that was still to be handled. Slayer and Albert were on the scene at that very moment still observing a now more visible version of the mystery creature. It was up to Mastema if he would yet question the boy, there was only so much that could be discovered via Slayer, Zio, and any other source other than Micha. The boy probably didn't care about Thanatos "making it up" to him, it was his own choice in the first place*

Micha: ..................

*Mastema would just offer Nana a light grin when she made herself comfortable against him* Are you certain you do not wish to sleep? You seem very tired already.... *Mastema would look back at Nana, while asking his question. Trilla's presence didn't seem to be a bother*

*Micha would continue to lay in his bed, for the most part motionless save for his chest rising and falling as he took a breath every other second or so. He had been in his bed since about the same time a month ago, and hadn't moved barely at all. Perhaps after Mastema's punishment he was punishing himself, or at least waiting to be told he could go about freely again. Sadly no one ever came to tell him, so he remained and started to deteriorate, until he reached the point he was at now. it would probably be best to start the boy off on liquids like juice or a soup of some sort. Hopefully such things were on the tray that Proto had brought back with him from the cafeteria. He seemed rather peaceful right now, then again it was probably just the lack of energy*

Micha: ................

*Nana sighed ever so lightly, she was content to stay as she was for a while longer. If she did fall asleep against Mastema then he could do as he pleased. More than likely that would mean scooting Trilla off downstairs so Nana could get some rest again. A little later on she, like Micha would probably get some food, and would start off with something she didn't need to chew*

--__--

Hnn... I think I can hold out a little bit longer, if anything at least for her sake.

*The mystery creature would remain suspended between solid and shadow, at the far end of the room. Perhaps Slayer was right and it could sense something in the air about the mood. Either way it wasn't really moving, and the drumming continued, though getting a bit quieter. The creature was probably examining them, as much as they were examining it*

???: ....................

Al- ::He scoffed slightly at Slayer's last comment. The vampire had no intention of trusting something lurking in the shadows. This seemed a lesson that all Vampires should have learned to him.::

Yeah... you trust it all you like... I'll just make sure you don't get in to much trouble...

*Nana would probably stay as she was for a while yet, as to further comfort Trilla. She seemed much better, since first arriving in the room a short time ago. Her tension levels had dropped dramatically. Two people the child loved, were loving her rightr back, in one form or another to the child at least*

Trilla: --__-- heart

*As Slayer approched further, the six flaps of skin that jutted out around the center eye would close over, and the entire entity would the seem to melt into the strange black and blue "snow show" type substance again before spreading out onto the floor and eventually disappearing all together. It had been scared away from that location for now, but it was sure the appear again sometime. Perhaps, one on one would make a bigger difference next time. Also a calmer approch to it aswell, Albert was far too on edge when he probably shouldn't have been, though it was understandable. The creature was and still is an unknown, and until such time as it's identity or pourpose was found out, then it couldn't be ruled out as a danger. However, as the creature departed it left something behind, a luggabe bag with the zipper half undone. Why on earth would this entity have something like that? It was a luggage bag from the citadel itself, but that didn't seem all too important. Though maybe it did, with this creature who could tell. Plus the contents of the luggage might say something, at least to someone*

Micha: ..............

*After a few short seconds, Micha's eyes would creep open again. He didn't seem any better off then before, barely responsive but at least that was better than absolutely nothing*

*There were several items inside of the luggage bag, including a small pencil, a single note pad paper piece left blank, two full bags of chocolate covered coffee beans, one mostly eaten bag of chocolate covered coffee beans, one teddybear. It seemed a strange assortment of items, then again it was Micha who had originally put them there, and not the mysterious shadow creature*

Micha: ..............

*Micha seemed to protest against the food and drink he was offered, though not the act of trying to help him. The boy musters the strength to turn his face to the side and away from the milk and straw. Did he really not want to eat at all? What pourpose would that serve? His silent protest and punishment would just continue on without end if he kept this up. Would Thanatos see this as Micha not wanting to accept his aid though? Or would he perhaps clue into why the boy remained as he currently was?*

*Micha was still rather reclusive, even after Thanatos had told him it was all right. The boy still seemed to refuse any sort of offered food or drink, so there was probably a little more to it, then what either Thanatos or Proto might have thought. Weakly, Micha would close his eyes again, it was all he would allow himself to do for now. A slight twitch or other natural reflex would probably occure every once in a while within the boy's small and currently fragile body. If Mastema really didn't intend on letting the child die, then he would have to do something himself. However that would probably mean, having Nana asleep, and having Thanatos beg even when he didn't need to*

Micha: ................

*Perhaps Micha simply learned sooner than Thanatos ever did, while still only a child. Obedience brough rewards and reccognition, without the sting and pain that came when something undesireable was done. The one called father would not be disapponted, not again. Such a simple act of leaving for such a short period of time and then returning was greeted with pain and a message that such things could happen there, outside of the barrier just as easily as inside. Even death was possible, so he shouldn't complain if his rib cage takes a beating, as things might have been far worse. Micha would wait for his words of freedom, from the man known as Mastema and father. Though it seemed cruel, it was a lesson well learned and a mistake that the boy would never make again. Micha would stay just as Thanatos had placed him, not even a hair moved out of place*

Micha: ............
