Welcome to Gaia! ::

Not that I know of... could be because I've had a rather long day... Gaignun says privately. And indeed, he looks like he's had a harder-than-usual day running the Foundation. Don't worry about me. Alka sits up, down with clinging to Gaignun for now. She turns to a more pressing issue; food. She hungerly eats the curry, adding a few mental 'yum yum's ever now and then. Jr. ...did you feel how thin she is?

Gaignun sighs. I think dear Father is partly to blame for her constant hunger. He starved Alka most of the time when we ere children; I don't know if you remember just how badly she was off. Makes me want to kill him all over again just for payback. The dark-haired U.R.T.V. accepts the food that a passing droid offers, and puts it in front of Alka. She eats, not even pausing as she switches places. Gaignun rubs her back kindly for a moment. His face darkens. How... how could Albedo even consider hurting her?! She's... she's still just a child...

((He told Rubedo that he did, to try and piss him off enough to kill him, but he was lying and Rubedo knew it. In actuality, Sakura stepped in front of Albedo to protect him from an U-DO wave.))

Why always children? Why does he always harm those who least deserve it? Gaignun sighed, and placed his arm around Alka, as if to protect her. She leans up against him, and giggles softly. Gaignun smiles back at her, his negative emotions slipping away. It's hard to stay angry for long when you have such a sweet sister... She's strong; she'll survive. The werid feeling is back; if Jr. thinks about, it's almost like someone listening in.

BOO! Albedo yells, laughing manaically. He keeps giggling. Did I scare you? Oh, I'm sorry! NOT!!! Another bout of insane laughter. Gaignun sighs, trying to not let his older brother goad him into anger. You seem rather hyper right now, Albedo. Eat too much candy? Albedo hoots. That's rich, little baby! Tell me; did you like my surprize you two?! AHAHA! Beside Gaignun, Alka moans in fear and presses herself close to Gaignun. She can feel Albedo's presense, and it's frightening her.

What, no kiss and make up? You're such a cruel brother Rubedo! Albedo says, mock hurt. He laughs again. Suddenly, Alka starts whimpering, pressing herself as close as possible to Gaignun. She's absolutely terrified of something. Poor little baby! Albedo taunts, probably towards Alka. Go away!! Leave me alone! You're not the Albedo I cared for! She starts crying quietly. Meanwhile, the cafe is empty save for a few droids who are politely keeping it that way. Smart droids.

Awww, you make me sad Rubedo! Why should I leave? I have as much right as you to join in this conversation!

What about you, Rubedo? You're the one who abandoned me back then! You're nothing but a coward! Gone is the insane mirth; Albedo actually sounds pissed at Rubedo. Gaiugnun holds Alka close, using his mental abilities to keep her from hearing the arguement. Her eyes have darken; she loks empty again. She was trying to put herself out of touch with everything; she was isolating herself from others, something she did as a child a lot, and which led to her general decline.
