Welcome to Gaia! ::

^^;

Hnn, thank you. I'm feeling much better now, than I have been of late. At least that's a bit of good news.

*Upon seeing Sho, Eecheb would immediately draw his tail back up under his robe and make it as a belt under his robe. It was an odd manuver but perhaps the boy had his reasons. Micha would do little more than blink at the man who was an uncle, before finding himself a chair to sit down in. Trilla on the other hand would seem wide eyed and excited. She reccognized Sho, from seeing the list of generals and residense in the citadel. The last time they met she was too young to remember him, but given her recent questioning of who was allowed to be in the citadel, Trilla at the very least knew what Sho looked like, and his name. Eecheb would work his way around the table until he found a seat next to Nana. Micha was at one of the ends of the table, Trilla had yet to be seated*

Trilla: | ~ o___o ~ | You're Sho!!

*Sure Trilla may have heard the name when Mastema had addressed him, but still*

*tyr would indeed find things amiss. He would probably be able to feel KB's and Xol's auras not too far from his position. At the moment, the two seemed to be letting off massive amounts of energy*

Sho: *Sho would blink as the young girl who was his niece let out her exclamation. Looking left to right, Sho scratched his head in a slight confusion* ._. Uh..... Y-yeah.... that's me. *blinks* And you're Trilla....... I remember you, but I thought you'd be way too young to remember me...... holy cow, you've got a good memory kid.

*Mastema chuckled in amusement* Trilla, here, recently took it upon herself to learn who the inhabitants of the citadel were. She recognizes you from your profile

Sho: oooooh ._. Okay that makes sense. *With his question answered, Sho smiled back to Trilla* ^^ It's nice to see you again after so long, Trilla. Happy birthday, to you and your brothers.

Sho: *With a smile to Trilla, Sho turned to the two boys, addressing each of them* o_o Well then, nice to see you both again. Hope you've both been well.

You met them already?

Sho: ^^ Yep. One normal day, Micha followed me back to the south tower and we spent a while together. A couple months later, I met Eecheb the same way

I see.... well then, it would seem the two of you have been exploring good territory *Mastema chuckled once and turned back to the table

Than: ^^ Well I'm glad to see you haven't been a complete hermit, Ojisan.

Sho: Hey!~ What's that supposed to mean >> I'm very sociable.

Than: Just not social...

Sho: Oh pish posh, first my brother now my nephew

Sho: ^^ I'm glad they came along. It was good fun while it lasted.

*Mastema raised a brow and looked at his brother, oddly*

Sho: >>;; *The suspicious look made Sho a little uncomfortable* Uh.... something wrong bro?

Than: *His attention was now also drawn to Mastema*

*Mastema would sigh, almost mockingly*.........it was the rice and the chopsticks was it not?

Sho: ._., I can't help it! I like em! Chopsticks over forks, spoons, or knives anyday! *Sho pulled out a pair of chopsticks he kept in part of his outfit* I will find a way to make them useful if I have to!

*Tilting his head back, Mastema would just grumble and shake his head* And you wonder why some people find you..... different

Sho: Oh they ain't taking my chopsticks no matter how odd they think I am. I ate all my meals in training with chopsticks and my own hands. Therefore, since I still train, I do the same

Of course..... of course...... *Mastema would just leave it at that. He knew his brother wouldn't be able to resist showing off his chopsticks to his relatives*

Than: *Than was laughing happily at the entire accusation* xd

An orb of shimmering light engulfed Heswina, her daughter's bubble wrapping around her mother and herself to protect them from the blast. The little girl honestly believed she could pervent the amassed energies of both KB and Xol from rending her mommy to tiny little peices. Heswina, on the other hand, held no false illusions, despite her utter love for the twisting of light and mind.

Foregoing the use of flashy theatrical tricks, such as the pillar of light she once used to teleport from place to place, Heswina simply lifted herself above the physical plane. Her body, her mind, her soul, and those of her little girl, were removed from the realm of mortals, mocking the spiritual plane of existance. For a moment, one bliss filled moment of absolute nothingness, she was above God. But given a flash of a second and it was gone, ripped from her grasp as so many things in her past.

Dropping herself back to the plane of physical dominance Heswina couldn't help but sigh in disapointment. Such blissful love and enjoyment and she could only scratch it's surface. One day she would seek to delve deeper into this...state of pure euphoria. For now, however, she would let KB and Xol beat each other with rocks, they were good at that.

Turning on her heel Heswina started towards the forest line, men...such stupid creatures.

*Nana wouldn't and couldn't force Mastema to sit at the table if he didn't wish to, but it would be nice if he joinned all of them at the table sooner or later. At least then, it would appear that he had at least some interest in what was going on. The children had not yet tasted anything so their like or dislike of the food wouldn't yet be known. Eecheb would of course resoind in kind to Sho when spoken to*

Eecheb: >.>; | Huh? No, not really. Oh? Ah, thanks.

*It was all the boy could think to say at the moment. He hadn't been back to the gym since though. There had been one to many attacks and he had been couped up inside with the others*

Eecheb: o.o | Ahh-- ?

*Sho's short speech had actually made Eecheb start to feel a little strange. His body seemed to react so differently than his other siblings, was that natural? He didn't really know, but then again no one else did either. Sho have been light hearted about getting on Eecheb's bad side but, still it seemed to have made some sort of impact on the boy. He seemed to be a little confused about the comment anyhow. It wasn't as if attacking Sho was anywhere on his mind, or should have been anyhow. Eecheb did want to be strong, as much as possible like with many. Just how he would react to any given challenge in the future however, well that was too be seen. By now Eecheb was starting to make strange faces at all of them, Nana caught sight of it and would try to "tone it down" a bit*

^_^;

Now now, you're going to make him feel strange with all this talk.

*Nana would place a hand on one of Eecheb's shoulders, the shoulder farthest from her. A little reasurance and support, to try and quell what ever was stirred up in his head. Eecheb seemed a little uncomfortable now, but given the day, of coures he and the others would get more attention paid to them than normal. Still, Eecheb didn't seem to thrilled for the moment, and in truth probably cursed himself for not listening to his feelings earlier. Maybe it would have been better if he just stayed in his room, then Sho and Thanatos wouldn't bring up such things as his early childhood of which he had little memory, and how his muscles seemed to getting bigger and stronger as if on a whim. Sure he liked being told he was strong, and seemed to be getting stronger, but with everything else tossed into the mix... not so much*

Eecheb: | .__., | Hmmn...
