Trivii Sani moved some twigs around before finding a grub and carefully loading her hook, swallowing as it pieced the larva... 'Thank you Galilee.' She switched her attention to the water, and contemplated her cast... glancing back at Zahar. Slightly nervous a look of doubt reflecting in her eyes, 'I'm water... I can sense it at all times... almost as though it calls to me, and I'm begining to think that I may be able to call it... but I don't know how that would work...' She let the line fly, watching as it sank into the water about twenty yards away... 'What can you do?' After asking she switched her gaze to Galilee, 'Was that good? Or should I try again?'

Trinityblue "... You're still a lousy sister...." TB muttered and then rolled her eyes and the converstation change. "And you're changing the subject." She sighed, "I'm not sure..... but I figure if there's anything bad going on, you'd be the first one informed....." ********** Sei scratched the back of his head with his other hand, still managing to hold on to his staff as he did it. He hadn't thought of it that way.... And she was right.
His neices were always good at guilt trips.... That's another reason he could never tell them no. "That's what I was afraid of." Ice replied, sighing and looking out at the camp. "Whatever happened to the days we could hand over the planet and let the people deal with all the problems themselves?" She stopped, seeing her daughter and the new masque approaching in the distance, blinking at the sight of them holding hands. Huh...**************** There's the house. It doesn't look like there's many people here, so this should be easy. Io said, heading into the town, still not letting go of Sei's hand. There are some I would rather not deal with, myself. She finished, tugging him a little faster at that thought.

Trin sighed. "You can never sit till long, can you? No wonder you're running all over the place. But for now, they need us, later on, they may not, ya know? Then we can go off and be space pirates!" She said happily, setting down another stone. TB blinked seeing Ice look at something.
"What is it?" She then looked in the direction her sister was, seeing Io walking with a mask she had seen some place before.... but where...?
Sei would have asked what was bothering Io, however he spotted his chosen and her sister, watching them. He could also feel the confusion of his chosen coming from their bond. He was glade the bond could hide his face as he smirked, despite himself. This was going to be interesting.

Ice didn't say anything, but nodded. She wouldn't mind being a space pirate again. Chasing after stars and bounties... being free. But for now her children needed her. And one was about to come through the door.
Io smiled slightly, speeding up at the sight of her chosen standing at the window. It had been a long time since Ice had been the one doing the waiting. In fact, she wasn't sure that had ever happened. But it felt... good. She headed up the stairs, reaching for the doorknob and looking over at Sei.
Shall we?

Green_Eyes Nika smiled at her possesive tone, a tone he had never heard Shiva use before. It was reassuring... in a way.
'Yes,' he agreed, squeazing her hand, 'it is our world.... and we could go look ourselves, that would be foolish, though, wouldn't it? I mean... I'd like to go and search the ruins... but the rade are there now. I wouldn't want to go there without the others.... and I feel that Io, Zahar and I should have the chance to look around the ruins together.'

Kataio F Zahar looked upquickly seeing Sani cast out then to Saniya. 'I can glow a bit. So far that is about all I know I can do. I get a little scared of the dark.' She glanced at Galilee remembering the fight between Silva and Io. 'When I go out and it is quite dark I start to glow. I am she I could control it after awhile just right now it is more of a fear thing.' Zahar sat herself down on a rock near the two. ((Now we wait for Gali, so I can post for Aricin))

Nika tilted his head to the side and studied her for a moment, 'Of course we all do...'
Uncomfortable with where the conversation was going, Nika stood up and carefully stepped on the flat rocks, making his way over to the space that looked as if it would make a great slide.
It was cold... They should go back to change atleast, especailly since his jeans were so heavy... but Nika wanted to slide down the run-off.
He looked down the slide. It was smooth enough... and it didn't look like he could get badly hurt.
'Shiva?' he turned to her and sat down, 'Should I go slide down?'

Sei nodded to her. He was spotted, there was no way out of this now, even if he wanted to leave. There weren't enought peope around for him to feel stuffy... yet.
"Icey.... I've seen that mask before......" TB turned to her sisiter and they were coming in.

She turned the knob and walked in, pulling him behind her. Mom? Aunt TB? I've brought you a little... surprise.
Ice blinked, not sure how to reply without laughing. Only Io would put it that way. She had picked up too many of Ice's bad habits.
His name is Seishuko. Io went on, looking at TB. And he has something to tell you.

Kataio F "Really? Now see I didn't know that about you. Were your parents away or did they just not want to see you? I have heard a lot of different reasons for nannies." Kataio stretched looking at the boxes behind her then back to Aricin. he didn't return to work as she continued to talk. "I think you seem interesting though. You don't seem that old yet you know all this medical stuff, you obviously have travelled a bit. I would love to learn more about you." Kata rolled her eyes realizing just how pathetically interested she shounded. Aricin laughs a little, "My parents were over protective of their youngest child... you know that whole 'Heir and a Spare' saying right? Well I was the spare, I had the Nanny because my parents wanted the reasurence that I would be okay, and the time to attend parties... I wasn't alloud to do much, so I read a lot, eventually getting a head in my studdies... and well I got my degree in Botony before I was eightteen, and Medicine within the next year... I worked in an orphanage until my parents asked me to do some work off world for my fathers business... Thats where I met Trivii and Letani (Priestess) Caimrie... and now years later I'm here on Masquerade." He smiles at her and begins wading through boxes again... "Trivii, Caimrie, and I made up an interesting team..." He shuts up again for a minute, but before Kata can talk he says... "Anything you would like to learn about in particular?"

*Shall I go first?* she inquired, staring rather fearlessly at the outcropping. It seemed rather fun, despite the intense chill of the water. It wasn't like they could get any more wet, but if she went first, at least they would know if it were dangerous....

He was spossta tell her?? Sei looked at Io, wide eyed. He thought she was going to be the one to tell!
He then looked at them, wondering what to do next. No going back now... Thinking a moment he found the words. 'You're mine.'
Tb just blinked at him. "I'm.... yours??" she repeated. "What am I? A pet cat??"
Sei just smirked under his mask, watching as her tail frizzed. Yes, this was entertaining.

Io snorted, trying not to laugh as she looked over at Sei.
"What did he say?" Ice asked, looking over at TB. "Something about you being his... cat?"
She couldn't help it. Io burst into laughter. He said--he means-- She started laughing again, unable to speak for a few seconds. He's her masque. So she's his. Whether she likes it or not. Io finished, grinning behind her mask. He's my uncle.
"Ooo.... kay." Ice said, blinking. "I guess that makes as much sense as anything else has on this world."
Io just smiled.

"... Yeah, that's about how it went." Tb just blink at him, then something dawned on her.
"You're that one! The mask that went missing!!" She said, marching up to him and pokeing him in the chest. "I've been looking for you, where did you go too??"
Sei blinked down at her, easily taller than her by a good head. Where was he? He shrugged and sent her images of what he had been doing, working and watching.
Trin backed up to where Ice was, after receiving the images. "He's.... bene stalking me..." She blinked at this. "Ok... you're my mask but you never bothered to tell me...?"
Seishuko nodded at this.
She blacked her hands on her hips, her tail twitching. "Ya coulda told me!" She then looked a Charlie, having seen him in the images. "And you! You knew all along!"
Charlie just looked up at her, blinking, then at Sei. "Oh, so he decided to come out of the woods finely?"
"Charlie....You knew, didn't you? The he was my mask?"
The young Rade looked around with his eyes, as if trying to find way out of trouble. "Um.... I knew he was following you? And you never asked!" He put his head down, turning so his back was to her.
"......" Trin looked back at Sei and sighed, then looked to Ice.

Ice shrugged. "It's news to me. I just met him today." She stopped, realizing that she was admitting to keeping something, then shrugged it off. TB already knew she had been. "But I don't get this uncle thing. If he's your masque, wouldn't that make him Io's cousin?"
Not your family, Mom. MINE. From... from before. Io stopped, frustrated with her inability to explain things correctly. Before you came here. Before we got stuck in the masks. He's my mother's... my REAL mother's brother.
Ice tried not to wince at her emphasis on the word "Real."
