Summary: Kishi goes to Phyfin to hang with Rouge and share thier misery.

Thursday, July 12, 2007 himatami1313 (2:54:56 AM): Rouge Remika blew her somewhat too long blonde bangs from her eyes. Lately, life was very mixed up and messed up. Her son had had to leave for a time to better himself, her daughter had pretty much been murdered, and she and her girlfriend had called it quits due to emotional differences. And hell right about then her brother had found out he was marrying a guardian. It was rather a pain. Right about then she only wanted to talk to a dear friend who'd at least somewhat understand that she had a lot on her mind.

Almost automatically she picked up the phone, dialing a number she didn't quite realize she was dialing. It wasn't until she'd flopped onto the couch with the cordless in hand and the phone was ringing that she realized she'd phoned Kishi.

ladyumbra666 (3:00:11 AM): " Hello who is - Sidra don't put that in your mouth, excuse me who is this?" Kishi inquired trying to focus on the phone while watching Sidra with a wary eye. Fortunately for the succubus teen only one of the twins was awake at the moment.

It was a rare occurance, one that kishi was taking advantage of. Now however the phone had rang and her attention was once again divided.

himatami1313 (3:01:35 AM): "Rouge. Is this a bad time?" the blonde asked, not really having to inquire about who the teen was talking to or why. She'd been a parent at least long enough to know that babies loved to put anything and everything in their mouths and she'd been captain of the Samadueanna long enough to know that Kishi was a guardian to two twin goddesses that were currently babies.

ladyumbra666 (3:07:14 AM): " Oh hi no it's fine, she's always doing this. How are things I haven't heard from you since I got the twins. I've been meaning to talk to people but I've been busy and distracted and time just seems to slip by." Grey eyes rolled towards the sky and Kishi thought about the strange twists her life had been taking lately.

It really had been too long since the two woemn had last talked. Which was sad since Rouge was pretty much one of the only females at this point who Kishi trusted in any capacity.

himatami1313 (3:08:15 AM): "Things are.......insane." Rouge said, massaging her temple with her free hand. "Its kinda-complicated to explain over the phone."

ladyumbra666 (3:11:13 AM): Kishi frowned, considering that she found Rouge to be one of the more stable people she knew it probably was taking something major to up set her " Did you want to come over to my new place, or we could meet somewhere. "

himatami1313 (3:12:24 AM): "Well if you wouldn't mind leaving the twins with someone-I've got a few friends who could do it-we could go out for coffee or something and maybe I could show you around phyfin a little. They have clothing you could wear and probably some lists of food that'd be best for your kids."

ladyumbra666 (3:16:06 AM): " Mm no need to bug your friends I live next door to A friend of dad's and she babysits for me all the time. Shopping therapy may do us both some good." They did say that misery loves company, and it would be good to be childless for a little while. Kishi loved the twins dearly but they affected her life so much that sometimes she felt like she was loosing herself.

himatami1313 (3:21:22 AM): Rouge smiled when she and Kishi walked into the small cafe on phyfin. The tables out in front were most interesting because they were on a small circular disk that floated. Phyfin wasn't known for Cafe's but the owner was a Nurikan imigrant who had wanted to make the place more homey. From behind a floating fence they could see the air traffic outside of the magically enclosed area and chat in peace while still watchign the people outside.

"So how's motherhood treating you?" Rouge asked softly as they sat down at a small table that overlooked main street. It would take a minute or two for a server to take their order so they had some time to chat.

ladyumbra666 (3:28:12 AM): " Like I'm it's b***h" kishi stated frankly but with no malice as she sat and full extented her wings a luxury she wasn't normally afforded while dining or drinking. " It's not the end of the world but there are moments I go crazy, still I'll learning to cope."

She smiled a bit at the older woman " And you, what madness was it you spoke of earlier?" As she waited for Rouge to reply she took in the strange scenery for all it's oddness gaia didn't have things stuff quite like this.


himatami1313 (3:29:11 AM): "Well...trouble with my children I guess you could call it." she replied gently, raising somewhat mournful eyes to her friend.

ladyumbra666 (3:32:49 AM): Kishi recognised the look in Rouge's eyes it was similar to the one Zah had when thinking of Neveah. Nervously she looked asked " What happened?"

himatami1313 (3:34:51 AM): "Diyaka had to leave-and I have no idea where to-so as to rediscover himself so to speak. And Demetra...I looked away at one point to get something while we were in the Tison capital-I knew I shouldn't really have been there but I thought it would be okay-and when I turned back around....she was..." the blonde seemed about ready to cry. "A man had come by and bumped into her-she bit him and he grabbed what he believed was her toy and broke it-and well, you can guess the rest."

ladyumbra666 (3:40:58 AM):
Unable to control hersel kishi snarled, was there some sort of curse on her kin. Were they all doomed to suffer no matter what life were they in? Demetra has been an adorable little kid, and harmless, well provided she didn't bite you. Even as an accident she hadn't deserved to die. honestly the forces that brought them here, that damned Matilda had clearly ******** up when she made thier lives tied to such a fragile object.

Although as she eyed her own wand she had to note that it regularly took something of a beating without ill effects to her. Possibly becuase she was older and thus tied stronger to life. Either way it wasn't fair or right.

For Rouge to have one child abandon her and the other torn from her in a simple accident. She couldn't imagine the guilt and pain the other woman was feeling. " I I'm sorry, i know the words don't do anything but.." Kishi had nothing to say. Really what could she say that would matter.

himatami1313 (3:45:22 AM): "Its all right. The thought is appriciated the same. I guess that's somewhat numbed me to pain though. A while after that had happened my significant other and I agreed to call it quits. Though it didn't hurt that much." the taller female smiled somewhat at the memory. "Charlene and I weren't the best match so I guess it didn't bother me the same way."

ladyumbra666 (3:48:36 AM): Kishi just shook her head, she had no clue how the other woman had handled so much change at once. " Syill ti couldn't have been nice to have had something for so long and lose it and you may not have been the best match but at least you cared about each other. " she smiled abit" dad yould probably understand that best, he recently broke up with Ianna" himatami1313 (3:48:57 AM): "Oh? And why's that?" ladyumbra666 (3:53:05 AM): " They were a bad match, dads thought he could chasnge her, protect her and teach her to protect herself. Much like Kay however she was content to just lean on him and be useless. Dad finally got fed up and moved out, there were others reasons too but that's the gist of it. Best decsion he's made in a while in my opinion" himatami1313 (3:54:34 AM): "Heh. Well I don't think I've met her so I won't judge, but your dad is smart so whatever he chose, he did it for a good reason."

By that time a server finally got over to them and they were able to order. The food and drink served there seemed interesting but there were some familiar dishes. Including a rather lovely chocolate cake with a funny name. ladyumbra666 (4:01:21 AM): Kishi picked at her food at first trying bits of everything and deciding to eat what she liked best first. It had been quite some time since she had just ate and relax letting her body slip into a state of peace. Her tail flicked back and forth lazily and her eyes were half closed in contentment giving her a sleepy look though she was wide awake.

"Mmm I suppose you're right" she said while swirling her drink in her cup " so aside from not losing you're mind what have you been up to?" himatami1313 (4:02:50 AM): "Not much as I recall. The flow of guardians has slowed down quite a lot, which is good, and currently we're just trying to keep things together. Now and then I've been fetchings parts for my brother's projects but other then that not much. I haven't really had anything interesting to do as of late." ladyumbra666 (4:03:53 AM): Kishi blinked confused " you have a brother?" himatami1313 (4:08:17 AM): "I have 3 of them. Adopted but they are the most family I really ever had. My father died when I was three and my mother when I was six. It was customary to put me up for auction so to speak as I had no traceable family left. I was adopted by the Remika family on Metriyika. It's rather amazing that I was adopted there at all seeing as how its an all male race so female children aren't usually wanted if ever. But Zidario Remika wanted more children and at the time it was believed that he and his spouse could not have any more so they got the youngest child available which happened to be me. I had 2 elder brothers at the time-Jason and Richard. Richard was psychotic and into some very freaky things, and Jason was believed to be very ill. A few years after I was adopted my new mother became pregnant with a 3rd child of his own, Alexander. Since was a girl Richard took no interest in me. I'm lucky I suppose, because he did horrible things to Alex and Jason was severely ill due to Richard injecting him with high concentrations of liquid lunican silver in his sleep." ladyumbra666 (4:12:42 AM): Kishi nodded slowly digesting this new information. It shoudln't surprise her that there was thigns about rouge that she didn't know. Although she was friendly with the woman she hadn't really ever had time like this to sit down and talk with her. she was certianly learnign interesting things.

" Which brother is it you are always getting stuff for?" himatami1313 (4:15:46 AM): "Jason. Richard vanished many years ago-believed to be in a mental institution somewhere on Lunica-and Alex was with his husband on Gamacon until recently. I'm very proud of Jason. He developed an immunity to the lunican silver Richard gave him and after a while even make it work in reverse for him. He's become Metriyika's greatest mechanic and has found himself a girlfriend-which is amazing. Mother says its because there was a female in the family and he was very sick and I spent time with him that Jason ended up straight. Its a good thing he's tough though or he'd be dead from all the guys who pick on him. He lives in our old home with the planet's junkyard in the backyard of it with his apprentice, his apprentice's girlfriend, his girlfriend and her charge. She's a guardian too." Rouge said proudly. ladyumbra666 (4:21:09 AM): Kishi just shook her head amazed " You've got a strangely complicated family but somehow for the most part they sound very special. It's nice that you managed to effect Jason ina way by being there for him when he was ill. It takes a certain kind of patience to be able to spend time with those who are sick and not act strange or reject them." kishi doubted she could have grown up with an Ill sibling and not treated them oddly for one reason or another. himatami1313 (4:24:20 AM): "Well there wasn't much else for me to do. He was lonely because he was sick and no one wanted to talk to him or see him. And I was lonely because I was a girl and no one wanted to see me or play with me. So we became eachother's best friend really." Rouge said with a huge grin. "He started getting better after I showed up and we made some friends. We managed to work up a crazy plan and got both of us into a school to learn mechanics and engineering. He was great at it and that's where we met our two best friends. Kah Hyn Murica was a Dahi girl who looked about my age and spent time at the school-she was a psychic and way too smart for most of the other kids. And Steve Miokima who was Jason's age and a part blood metriyikan and a bit of a klutz." ladyumbra666 (4:30:14 AM): Kishi laughed " Ahh so it wasn't all bad then and only you would hatch a plan to get into school. Most kids would avoid it like the plauge." Sipping at her drink and fannign herself with her wings kishi tried to imagine a younger Rouge running around a school weilding an electric wrench or some such thing. " Do you still keep in touch with your friends" himatami1313 (4:30:38 AM): "What Karyn and Steve you mean?" ladyumbra666 (4:30:52 AM): Kishi nodded himatami1313 (4:31:35 AM): Rouge actually laughed, loudly and happily at that. "Well Karyn's now an engineer and doesn't look a day older and Steve's a weapons technician. Both on the Samadueanna so yes I'd say we keep in touch." ladyumbra666 (4:36:14 AM): At that Kishi snickered " Aha you coerced your childhood friends into helping you run away to space. There's so much more to you then I thought." himatami1313 (4:37:08 AM): "Coerced them into nothing. They coerced me!" Rouge was happy as a clam. She never got to talk about old times with most people. ladyumbra666 (4:38:49 AM): "mmhmm i'm sure it was there idea to wander off into space doing.. what the heck is it that you do other than surprise people with children" himatami1313 (4:41:03 AM): "Well prior to suprising people with children we did a bunch of really badass work freeing places from the control of the mainlands and whatnot, defying the law and being outright space pirates. And yes it was their idea. Steve and Jason wanted to see Dahi and Wison-both lands with all female races. And Wisons dont' believe in clothing so they really wanted to go there. And Karyn wanted to see Lunica and go back to Dahi for a while." ladyumbra666 (4:45:50 AM): " There's an entire world of nudists, serious no oen there wears clothes not even when their old and wrinkly?" Still a teenager Kishi's mind was only able to process this information out of all rouge had said. She'd heard the rest and parts of it interested her but for the moment there was imagery stuck in her head and it wouldn't go away. himatami1313 (4:49:27 AM): Rouge started to giggle quite a lot. "Dear Wisons don't age like that. If you see one that looks like she's in her 30s she's a senier and if she looks middle aged she's ancient. They are born as winds and they fade into that when it is time for them to go. A lot of Tison races are like that. Always appearing young no matter how old they are. Karyn is an extreme of that. Due to who her mother was she is eternally about 13 years old unless she gives up her powers at which point she will become older but not truly old. She will return to her fully young state when she retakes them. Very few races ever grow to appearing very old and those that do age pretty gracefully." ladyumbra666 (4:55:16 AM): " Well that's good becuase otherwise I think I might have been scared for life knowing that somewhere outhere there was a planet filled with naked women slowly turning old and creepy and refusing to wear clothes." Kishi too giggled at the thought. himatami1313 (4:56:00 AM): The blonde was snickering histerically at that now. "Wow that is so damn wrong to think of. Especially if you've seen Wison. They don't believe in houses much either." ladyumbra666 (4:56:59 AM): Kishi blinked " um then wear do they sleep and riase kids and hide from bad weather, i mean everywhere has bad weather." himatami1313 (5:00:22 AM): "Wison is the land of the winds dearie. There are 3 air realms in Tison. Aieshon-realm of the winged beings. Whayson-realm of the winds. And Threshon-realm of the stormbringers. Threshon was the only one of the 3 part of the Main Lands. Whyshons-the male Wisons-are the bringers of storm winds and spent most of their time in Threshon. But Wisons-the females who cared for clouds and such-lived in a perfectly happy separate plane. As of late though, Threshon was cast out of the 3 and Whayshon has seemingly sprouted a new part. And strangely, beings have shown up that seem to be half Threshon half Whyshon and able to control full storm powers and they reside in this new part." ladyumbra666 (5:02:50 AM): Kishi just blinked " so many races and places it's all so confusing, man do the twisn ever have to learn all of that?" she wasn't sure how rouge had memorised it all. she herself had a had tiem keeping track of gaian locations himatami1313 (5:04:12 AM): "Not usually no. The only reason people usually know that kinda stuff is if they like politics or it has something to do with them. I have to know it since I am technically very involved in politics." ladyumbra666 (5:07:19 AM): Kishi raised an eyebrow " politcal pirate? and what was this about liberating people from the mainland?' himatami1313 (5:09:55 AM): "I have to know politics as I'm involved in making sure the politics of the actual government stays the hell out of the Outlands. See there are two parts to Tison. The Main Lands are the lands that are under control of the Betrayer-the god which slew the others and tried to take over Tison. Those who are willingly part of the mainlands are loyal to him and believe that he is the only worthy god and believe in opressing those who aren't pure bloods or are considered Scum. The outlands are the lands whose people are loyal to the old gods and seek for their return to power. Some places don't have the strength to keep the Mainland power out of them so we have to help the people there in any way we can." ladyumbra666 (5:13:46 AM): kishi nodded as she digested the information " Makes sense," she frowned " how long would it take to get from here to the mainlands?" himatami1313 (5:14:49 AM): "a long time. Phyfin is luckily clear on the other end of the galaxy. The only thing farther then here is Dahi. And we aren't going to the main lands anyway. Tisoni Immortalis-the former capital city was on the border ish and I am not getting near that place after what happened, especially not with you." ladyumbra666 (5:17:03 AM): Kishi frowned again " I am more than capable of taking care of myself. i was murdered once i'm not letting it happen again. you're just lucky it'd take a long time to get there i'm feeling somewhat vengegull and rebellious. himatami1313 (5:18:13 AM): "I don't care if you can or can't take care of yourself. I've already lost two lives very dear to me in that hell hole and I'm not going to go near there or let someone dear to me near there any time in the visible future." ladyumbra666 (5:20:38 AM): Kishi sighed" I still think that place needs to pay for causing you pain like that, besides that b*****d who killed the twins is there right? " kishi grey eyes flecked with gold as she thought about the night she had received the twins. the scene she had witnessed. " someone needs to do something. Just keepign that bastards followers at bay isn't enough." himatami1313 (5:21:28 AM): "No he is not. He is smart enough to stay the hell out of the city. Revenge will come onto that place when the time is right. There are still people there who are innocent and must wait until Jason is finished his work." ladyumbra666 (5:24:10 AM): " You'll risk your brother, the brotheryou nursed bakc to health's life but you won't let me at least investigate?" you are a very strange woman rouge. There was annoyance in Kishi's tone and her body will filled with tense muscles, somehow her nice relaxing day had been shot to hell in an instant himatami1313 (5:24:34 AM): "Risk Jason? In waht way?" Rouge said, raising her eyebrows. ladyumbra666 (5:25:51 AM): " Well if whatever it is you're up to requires something he's doing to get finished it means he's involved and thus in some remote form of danger" himatami1313 (5:27:53 AM): "Jason is on Metriyika. Metriyika is a) the next planet over from this one so he's not exactly close to the main lands and b) is one of the most powerful of all of the Tison worlds. Jason's work is he's building the new capital city. When it is finished the refugees from the current capital will be moved there. That's what I've been getting parts for him for. He's Tison's greatest mechanic and a genius at building things. He's going to make this capital much better then the last one-which was made many many years before lunican silver was discovered." ladyumbra666 (5:28:46 AM): " oh" Kishi blushed " sorry for snapping at you. i just hate feeling sheltered. " himatami1313 (5:29:58 AM): "You're not being sheltered. You can help kick some a** when the time is right. For now, we need to wait. Anyway-we were gonna do some shopping weren't we? Its almost 5" Rouge said with a mischevous grin. "The best stores should be opening about now." ladyumbra666 (5:32:00 AM): Kishi looked down at her empty plate " Heh yeah assuming clothes fit me now that i'm stuffed like a turkey" himatami1313 (5:32:39 AM): "This is Phyfin. On Earth there is a place called Sin City. Let's think of this place as Sin Planet." ladyumbra666 (5:33:19 AM): Kishi laughed " great i'm going to go home with clothes , tattoos a drinkign problem and soem guy who's name i don't know himatami1313 (5:33:57 AM): "Well that or you're going to go home severely stuffed physically and mentally with a whole lot of items that were bought on the credit card of someone you don't quite remember." ladyumbra666 (5:35:48 AM): Kishi raised an eyebrow as she stood " explain please?" himatami1313 (5:36:29 AM): "You'll understand when you see the locals. There's a reason this is the best place to shop for you." Rouge said calmly. ladyumbra666 (5:37:08 AM): Kishi shrugged " sure if you say so, Lead on on captain" himatami1313 (5:40:00 AM): Outside on the main streets were some pretty interesting people. The sun was starting to set and neon lights were turning on. Girls walked the streets in halter tops and mini skirts, men in slacks and jackets. They all seemed to have somewhat pointed ears and smooth faces. But as the sky darkened, other things became obvious....such as the fact that there were very few people in the area without wings...or tails....some even had horns. Fangs were also highly common place and now it was obvious why there had been so few people in the cafe in broad daylight. This city was made for nightlife and its people made for sin. ladyumbra666 (5:43:58 AM): Kishi grinned " I am home at last." Sure there were people like her on gaia and sure it was home to a lot of strange peopel but this, this was perfection. She blended in perfectly with the crowd. Her silver and purple outfit glowing along with the bright lights that seemed to drawn her in every direction at once. " Rouge keep an eye on me ok , i have this deep desire to just sort of wander aimlessly , if i do that i'll get lost and never leave" himatami1313 (5:47:02 AM): Rouge laughed. "as you wish." the blonde didn't blend so well-especially due to her hair color and complextion but strangely everyone who passed her didn't seem to mind. She was well known most likely and apart from the locals there were plenty of tourists from all walks of life. Rouge spotted something and suddenly grabbed Kishi's arm.

A ways away a small slender, beautiful woman, strode naked down the sidewalk. Her body was almost hairless except for the long white silk tresses that flowed from her head. They matched her skin in a tone of pure white that was amazingly glowing against the lights. She had a tiny upturned nose and her body lacked most features of gaian females-being mostly smoothed over in all sexual region and being so thin. But this thinness was part of her grace and beauty as she pratcially glided along the streets.

"That, Kishi, is a Wison." ladyumbra666 (5:51:02 AM): Kishi stared" and they say Succubi are beautifull, she's all long lines and silky hair and daintyness." There was a noticable bit of jealousy in the girl's voice. himatami1313 (5:52:00 AM): "Everyone's beautiful in their own right. Be glad you haven't seen any Dahi yet or you'll really get jealous. Dahi are the only race that can make a Wison wonder if clothing would make her look better." ladyumbra666 (5:55:01 AM): Kishi laughed " Oh I refuse to beleive that, you can get much closer to pure beauty than that." She said nodding towards the Wison." heh i should get pictures and mail them to KaY see how pretty she thinks she is then" himatami1313 (5:58:16 AM): Rouge laughed and reached in her pocket to pull out a camera. "Hold this." the told the girl with a grin before walking away-directly over to the Wison woman and greeting her. It was strange to see Rouge-black trench coat flowing-approach that shameless nude queen of wind. Yet they talked as if it were completely natural and soon the two walked towards Kishi. "Kishi, this is Wenitei. Wenitei, this is my friend who would like a picture with you."

The Wison woman bowed at Kishi though not much as she was already much shorter. "A greeting fair child of darkness." which coming in her soft, airy voice was actually kinda nice to hear. The winds themselves seemed to blow with her gentle words. ladyumbra666 (6:05:37 AM): Kishi held the camera and struggled to find words that would seem appropraite and settled for a curtsie since it seemed the least like to be offensive.

" Um yes like Rouge said I'd like a picture of you if it wouldn't be too much of a problem." Secretly she cursed Rouge for leaving her in such a socially awkward situation. himatami1313 (6:07:50 AM): Wison women, luckily, totally do not notice that sort of thing-being rather airheaded after all. Wenitei allowed Kishi to stand beside her and Rouge photographed them. After that the woman gave each a peck on the cheek and was on her way.

"you don't have to be so worried with Wison and Phyfin beings. Its some of the other races that you gotta watch behavior with." himatami1313 (11:51:19 PM): it still doesn't love me Friday, July 13, 2007 ladyumbra666 (7:51:25 PM): Kishi just shook her head " Yes well you shouldn't be getting me into situation where i have to worry about the right behaviour" she teased " you're supposed to be the older role modle and all that. " she frowned " ick one day i could grow older than you and that would be odd" himatami1313 (7:53:43 PM): "All right, I'm sorry. I'll warn you of the right behavior next time we see someone worth taking a picture with." Rouge grinned and winked at Kishi. "It wouldn't be TOO odd. It'll be much odder for me when Diyaka gets older then I am." ladyumbra666 (7:54:45 PM): Kishi paused at that thought " Hey ******** wait the twins wont outgrow me will they?" himatami1313 (7:59:56 PM): The blonde thought for a moment, quirking her head as she did. "Well they're half phyfin half rishoku. Phyfins are almost eternally young so long as they eat right and you can only tell a rishoku's age up to a certain point because the only thing that changes is their height. So they could either end up about your age and stop growing or they could get drastically older then you and you still wouldn't be able to tell." ladyumbra666 (8:03:20 PM): Kishi just shook her head " Figures, nothign in my life is predictable." She eyed the other woman " So what are we shopping for first?" himatami1313 (8:03:54 PM): "I have no idea. Though there is a rather famous way of figuring out where to shop first in phyfin." ladyumbra666 (8:04:39 PM): Kishi raised an eyebrow " do tell." This was probably asking for trouble but hey you had to live a little to enjoy life. himatami1313 (8:05:19 PM): "You stand in the middle of the main street intersection-everything here is foot and air traffic so you don't have to worry about getting hit-you stand there, close your eyes, turn around 5 times and point." ladyumbra666 (8:06:53 PM): kishi laughed " How about we just go towards the shiniest light we find that um.. purple." kishi had no desire to act like a little kid playing a game while shopping. she was trying to learn to be mature after all himatami1313 (8:08:21 PM): "take your pick." Rouge said, pointing head down a street to where millions of large purple neon signs shown, each brighter then the last. "That's the purple light district." ladyumbra666 (8:09:27 PM): Kishi pointed to a particularly bright sign to the left " that one, and so help me if it's a sex store" himatami1313 (8:10:32 PM): "no sex stores would be in the red light district. Purple light is magic accessories, goods used for spells, and costumes for fighting and spellcasting and ritual holding." ladyumbra666 (8:12:25 PM): kishi grinned " Oh that is so awesome, go my fav colour go" she said walking towards the store in question. " magic isn't my forte but I'm sure I can find some interesting stuff here that's still usefull." himatami1313 (8:15:36 PM): It was amazing the sorts of things you could find in one of the costume shops in this district. The woman behind the counter-a witch with a peaked hat and tremendous green tinted specticles and a long black robe who lookedl ike she was barely out of her 20s-said it was perfectly okay for them to browse and try on what they liked. There were racks upon racks of rather interesting looking clothing-including a pair of black leather pants with a purple tassle belt and tassles hanging from the cuffs and pockets. The tassels were all beaded and the leather had a purple sparkly sheen. They were some sort of cross between fantastic, extravangant and tacky. ladyumbra666 (8:18:39 PM): Kishi looked around then betwen the pants and rouge " I want to ask really I do but part of me doesn't want to know quite how that happened. Better than purple snakeskin though, that's just damn weird." Kishi found the pants among other things in the shop interesting. Perhaps not the most practicle of clothing but certainly even on gaia they'd catch attention. himatami1313 (8:19:50 PM): Rouge was leaning into the bin she'd gotten the pants out of after she'd handed them to Kishi. "Speak of the devil-this is just wrong!" and out she pulled a pair of purple snake skin pants.....with silver tiger stripes. ladyumbra666 (8:23:26 PM): Kishi burst into laughter " ok that's just , no who dreamed that up? I mean I don't think anyone can make those look good. " Oh but this was enjoyable, just relaling and having fun while half hearted lookign for clothes. She needed to do this more often perhaps this was why other women shopped so much.
himatami1313 (8:24:26 PM): "I did" the lady behind the counter said calmly. "And they look absolutely fabulous on the models at this years photoshoot." ladyumbra666 (8:26:44 PM): Kishi raised an eyebrow as she turned to look at the women. " Forgive me but I just cannot imagine those pants flattering anyone. Being eye catching sure but flattering? well maybe if the model's complex ion was just right." Kishi was polite but honestly there was no way tiger stripe and snakeskin were agood combo. himatami1313 (8:31:28 PM): From behind the drawer the woman pulled an enormous magazine. Licking her fingers as she flipped pages she finally rested on one. The model in question was tall and slim with pale silver skin and long white hair that was complimented by large wings that seemed to be made up of several large shite petals positioned in cresent shapes. Along with the pants she wore high heeled strappy purple sandels with silver parkles and a pale purple poncho with a large purple and black orchid on it. Her wristbands and the silken scarf tied around the top of her hair were both in shades of dark purple with silver stripes and the bands were snakeskin as well. And the huge hoop earrings and thin bracelets on her arms in silver made the outfit look both gaudy and gorgeous at once. ladyumbra666 (8:34:54 PM): Kishi glared at Rouge " Remember how your job is to stop me from saying stupid things.. well you're failing" Kishi poured over the pictures again for a few minutes " it's certianly something, I can't quite finds words for it but overall it's sorta awesome. Once again I envy another women" himatami1313 (8:35:29 PM): "What sort of stupid thing would you say?" Rouge said, blinking repeatedly. ladyumbra666 (8:37:31 PM): Kishi just shook her head " Nevermind , just help me pick out something. maybe something that matches zah's eyes so i can bug the hell out of him whenver he deems it appropirate to see me again" Kishi grumbled himatami1313 (8:41:24 PM): Rouge looked through the pages and smiled when she found a picture of a young phyfin woman who looked similar to Kishi-save this woman had a purple tint to her hair and her skin was lighter. The woman wore a lovely green dress that was in sections of light green and dark green with silver trimmings. There was a rather gorgeous headband that went along with it. The clothes weren't too traditional or practical for fighting but they did look rather pretty on the woman. "what do you think?" Rouge asked, pointing ladyumbra666 (8:43:14 PM): Kishi considered it for a moment " You know that just may work. I never really experimented much with greens." himatami1313 (8:45:09 PM): "Do you have a copy of this dress in stock for her to try on?" Rouge asked the woman.

Grinning the little witch hopped up from her seat-standing it seemed the woman was about 4 feet tall and next to the 8 foot something Rouge that was kinda odd. Scurrying through the racks she returned with the green dress and headband as well as some silver bracelets, earrings and fishnet stockings. Oh and of course some rather dainty little slippers that Rouge thought looked cute. ladyumbra666 (8:49:06 PM): Kishi looked at all the accessories, and wondered if she really needed all that. still if she was goign to do it she might as well go all in. Plus the probably completed the effect or whatever terms it was fashion people used. " so where do I change?"

she tried to focus on the clohtes and not on the strange height variations going on. honestly they were like a a chart or something. himatami1313 (8:53:18 PM): There was a small enclosed set of areas in the back of the shop with curtains so customers could change clothes. Rouge had picked herself out something and went into another of these to change her outfit as well. May as well have fun with this.

Rouge's outfit had consisted of a blue turtleneck, jeans, sneakers and her black trenchcoat. But now she was in a silky light purple-silver top that shimmered when she moved and black slacks as well as black strappy high heels-which just made her enormous height all the more graceful. The top was backless and the only thing keeping it from being strappless were two sections that went up and tied around her neck. A simple silver charm bracelet and matchign belt with diamon studs completed the outfit. But it made her want to get a haircut more. ladyumbra666 (9:05:08 PM): inside her dressing room Kishi fought with the stocking which were in her mind the bane of people everywhere how people manged not to lose toes or drive themselves insane putting them on confused her. Still the light silvery stocking against her dark skin were pretty nice.

The dress went on easily and she pulled her hair from it's updo and slid the headband on regressing for a moment to when she was young and insepreable from her own. Sidra owned the treasured hairpiece now.

Thew jewlery and slippers went on before Kishi stepped out for some opinions.

Upon seeing rouge she paused not really sure what to make of the older woman's new outfit. she settled for " that's different' it's nice." himatami1313 (9:06:31 PM): "Thanks. You look great Kishi." Rouge told her with a grin. "Green is definitely a nice color on you." ladyumbra666 (9:10:25 PM): Kishi smiled a bit " i'll see about including a bit more of it in my wardrobe." Kishi wouldn't mind the odd bit of clothes that made it obvious she was feminine, after all soem of her current outfits were designed that way to lure in males for discussions of feeding. Still most of those weren't practicle for fighting.

" why don't you wear stuff like that more often?' she inquired nodding to Rouge's outfit. " It suits you pretty well and wouldn't really hurt your job reputation any" himatami1313 (9:11:56 PM): "Well this kind of thing isn't good for lounging around in. But I wear it on dates and whatnot. Which I haven't been on in about 10 years." ladyumbra666 (9:12:56 PM): Kishi frowned " I thught people in relationships still went out on dates and worth special clothes and stuff" himatami1313 (9:13:50 PM): "You have never met my ex then." ladyumbra666 (9:15:08 PM): Kishi sighed and her grey eyes turned stony " Introduce me , I'm sure we'll get along just peachy" Rouge was special to kishi, they'd met and clicked instantly and rouge has sort of ingrained herself into Kishi's life over time. No one messed with her himatami1313 (9:16:05 PM): "No you'd probably end up severely pissed and she'd end up trying to bludgeon you with an umbrella." ladyumbra666 (9:20:16 PM): Kishi had a breif flashback to watchign Ranma with del and snickered for a moment. she doubted puring cold water would stop the other woman though. " Mm well she could try but i'm not that easy to hit. Besides i have pent up stress energy. i need to hit something. i want to hurt something." again ehr eyes gained gold flecks and her tail twicked erratically. Her wings shifted and her tone grew cool. himatami1313 (9:21:55 PM): Rouge smiled, putting an arm around Kishi. "Don't worry about it. I wouldn't want to be seen in public with her anyway. She's the queen of awkward social situations. Anyway, lets buy these and maybe those pants, and get back to shopping." ladyumbra666 (9:27:10 PM): Kishi sighed but nodded, though her body was still tense. while the shoppign was theraputic , so much was setting her off right now. " hey you never told me how expensive shopping here is" himatami1313 (9:27:28 PM): "That's cause you don't need to know." ladyumbra666 (9:28:06 PM): Kishi rolled her eyes " becuase i'm not goign to pay you back, i'm not a freeloader." himatami1313 (9:29:24 PM): "No but this is my treat. Its been forever since I got to take someone out and buy things for them." she said cheerfully, handing over some unfamiliar bills to the little witch. "Which district to now?" ladyumbra666 (9:31:22 PM): Rather than offend Rouge by arguing Kishi just nodded " Um, is there a shoe district. I've got oen pair of running shoes. one pair of fancy boots and then like funeral shoes. I'm no big fan of matching shoes to outfits but all of mine are slowly wearing thin" himatami1313 (9:32:01 PM): "Shoes would be in this district." Rouge said with a nod, poiting to a store accross the street. ladyumbra666 (9:33:05 PM): " ahh well then lead on to the shoes and then somewhere for hair stuff with is probably else where in this district." himatami1313 (9:36:34 PM): "Hair would actually be in the rainbow light district. That's all hair and makeup and stuff like that." she said, walking into another shop where a large red skinned muscular male sat behind a desk, reading a large novel. He wore sandels and shorts and small rectangular glasses. That mixed with the large spiked horns and all of the tattoos made him actually look somewhat attractive. The silver goatee of his indicated his age somewhat though. That and the fact that he was reading some crazy novel in a foreign language that was huge and halfway through. "Fear falee to blouse." he said with a thick accent, not really bothering to look up at them. ladyumbra666 (9:41:21 PM): Kishi was starting to wonder if perhaps the shopkeeps here were more interesting the the producs they sold. With permisson to look aroudn she head straight for the boots. She wanted something dark and possibly knee high, some decent combat boots and some just for fun. himatami1313 (9:43:45 PM): Rouge happened to know the clerk and leaned over to read the novel over his shoulder. "So has Chimmeny said anything to Jchun yet?" she asked cheerfully. The man opened his large green eyes widely and smiled happily. "So far no but at one point Chimmeny kissed Jchun to wake him up from a nightmare state" he said, his thick accent making the words worse but somehow seemed more understandable the more you heard it. ladyumbra666 (9:47:10 PM): Kishi flicked her eyes between the two glad to see rouge enjoying herself. she wasn't certain exactly what the two were talking about but they seemed amused at the least. Holding up a pair of navy knee high boots with silver laces kishi grinned " yes, no or what the hell am i thinking?" himatami1313 (9:48:36 PM): "if you can find some blue clothing to wear with them they're nice." Rouge called. ladyumbra666 (9:50:53 PM): Kishi nodded , it should be two hard to find a decent thing in blue, maybe a suit, she hadn't worn one since hallwoeen but that had been interesting himatami1313 (9:51:38 PM): The man made a rather happy squeal about something in his book and buried his nose in it. "Oooh! This just got rather juicy!" ladyumbra666 (10:03:00 PM): Kishi looked over at the pair again " i take it you're not reading some sort of historical novel." himatami1313 (10:04:13 PM): "Historical? Are you kidding me? That's the latest of a series of rather racey novels by this one phyfin woman." Rouge laughed, walking over to look for some shoes with Kishi. ladyumbra666 (10:06:12 PM): Kishi laughed " i never did understand the point of books like that. it's not that i don't think they take talent ot write or anythuign but " she shrugged " it just seems strange to me. probably becuase i doubt u could write oen without succumbing to god only knows what. or wonderign if i was somehow describign a real person's life" himatami1313 (10:07:26 PM): "well from what I've seen of her friends she bases a lot of her characters on people she meets on the internet." she said cheerfully. ladyumbra666 (10:07:51 PM): Kishi just shook her head " lawsuit waiting to happen" himatami1313 (10:08:07 PM): "nope. She asks for permission." ladyumbra666 (10:10:06 PM): " ahh makes sense, still why would you want yoru sex life published." Kishi still found sex awkward when she wasn't lettign her instancts take over and she was still limited to dreams at that himatami1313 (10:11:31 PM): "She makes that bit up silly. Most of these people have never met." the blonde told her cheerfully.

After finding a few pairs of shoes she grinned. "now, to get our hair done?" ladyumbra666 (10:15:11 PM): Kishi nodded " Yeah i mean I had the tips done a while bakc in silver but it seems to have gone all bleh and hides in my natrualy hair shine>? i'm not really sure what to do with it though i let my hair dresser go wild last time" himatami1313 (10:16:31 PM): "Why don't you get a rainbow streak or something?" Rouge teased as they walked into the rainbow light district. Most would think the rainbow light district would mean there were just many lights-but as they walked in they seemed to have walked into an insane looking dream. All the lights were literally rainbow and glowing crazily. ladyumbra666 (10:20:06 PM): Kishi flicked her eyes between the two glad to see rouge enjoying herself. she wasn't certain exactly what the two were talking about but they seemed amused at the least. Holding up a pair of navy knee high boots with silver laces kishi grinned " yes, no or what the hell am i thinking?" ladyumbra666 (10:20:18 PM): ( whoops ignore didn't copy right ladyumbra666 (10:20:29 PM): Kishi laughed " Uhuh no it's probably some international symbol for hopeless newb." she blinked at the lights and riased a hand to sheild her face. " holy ******** it's bright." himatami1313 (10:21:34 PM): The blonde smirked. "That's why there's a sunglasses vendor right next to us." ladyumbra666 (10:25:12 PM): Kishi laughed " seriously, i refuse to turn my head to look." himatami1313 (10:26:09 PM): "Just a second." Rouge said calmly and for a moment the girl was left alone. Just as quickly as she'd gone though, Rouge was back, gently putting a pair of lovely purple sunglasses on Kishi's face, which nicely dulled the glare. ladyumbra666 (10:27:55 PM): Kishi smiled " thanks, I think we can manage now. so is there a best salon out here or is it just pick one and hope for the best?" himatami1313 (10:28:27 PM): "Well there are 3 salons in this area. One is best for children, one best for men, and one best for women. We can go to the women's. You're old enough for that one." ladyumbra666 (10:30:21 PM): " ok then, " kishi reached up and fingered her hair. is was adecent legnths now just past her shoulders when wavy and curled. striagned it nearly reached midback. she didn't really want to cut it but she wasn't sure quite what to do with it himatami1313 (10:33:42 PM): When they entered the salon they found another of those young beautiful foreign females that made Kishi so jealous. This one was far more lovely then most of the models and even the Wison woman they'd seen earlier. Her chest was small and she wore a light purple dress. Her hair was cropped into a little ducktail style and she wore a little purple wrap on it. Her shoes were fluffy seal slippers and her jewelry was simple and silver. All in all this young woman looked rather cute and pleasant. There was however a strange grace about her that not even the wind woman could match. ladyumbra666 (10:41:36 PM): Kishi. took in the womans appearance and flicked her tail idley. This planet ceased to surprise her with the beauty of it's people, of course considering it's reputation it wasn't surprising.. Still kishin shifted to stand behind rouge. she wasn't sure she had anythign appropraite to say at the moment. himatami1313 (10:43:08 PM): The girl looked and smiled broadly. "Roosh! Woondoval to see jhu! Ow ees Tan Pan?" she asked happily.

"Tan Pan's fine. Lin Kei, this is Kishi. She's got no clue what to do with her hair and I need a haircut. Is your mother around?" ladyumbra666 (10:44:47 PM): Kishi wondered why there were so many different accents prevalent here and how people figured out what everyone was saying. She smiled at Lin Kei, " pleasure to meet you" himatami1313 (10:49:24 PM): Lin Kei bowed and nodded to Rouge before leaving the room to find her mother who was most likely the head stylist.

"In case you were wondering, there are a lot of different races that reside here for the business. Each has a different accent. Phyfins talk normally except for their words sound funny due to the fangs. Lin Kei and her mother are Dahi. Dahi have somewhat drawn out words-Sen Shei's accent isn't as thick since she's been living here longer though. That guy we met earlier is a phfyin from another region and has odd fangs that make his speech sound like that." at that point a woman with long black hair who looked much like Lin Kei only older and prettier. Her dress was long and purple as well and she looked almost too graceful for words.

"Greetings Dears. My doohter tells me you do not know what you would like done, Ms. Kishi." The woman was adressing the girl politely and seemed perfectly comfortable speaking with her. ladyumbra666 (10:56:35 PM): Kishi had nodded at rouge's words, it made sense, after all with it being a big hub of people and all.

At the sight of the new older woman kishi nodded " yes I'd like to keep my hair long mam but i'm not sure what else to do with it" Tuesday, July 17, 2007 himatami1313 (3:23:11 PM): The Dahi woman smiled broadly and nodded. "How about an updo with some curling?" she suggested.

Rouge had already taken a seat in one of the other chairs by the sinks. The Dahi stylist was leading Kishi to one as well ladyumbra666 (3:28:53 PM): " Sounds good to me." Kishi replied following the woman. " somehow I think my hair will thank you for this. It's usually the least of my concerns." It was also usually the subject to slober or thown food from the twins, soaked in sweat or just tied back in a simple high ponytail. While her looks played an important rose in kishi's life she'd become accustomed to using hypnosis to project them in order to increase her control over the power. himatami1313 (3:31:05 PM): The Dahi woman wasn't too chatty while she did Kishi's hair-mainly since she had to be ordering people around while she worked, since it was getting late and so more and more clients and workers were showing up. Rouge had to be dragged off at one point by her stylist since she was getting a cut and Kishi was in the main room for just a styling. They'd be meeting up again shortly either way so it wasn't too big of a deal. Currently the Dahi woman was putting a rather shining berette in Kishi's hair ladyumbra666 (3:34:10 PM): Kishi remained quiet thinking calm thoughts as the woman worked. if she could hold her temper for the rest of the evening there was a good chance things might actually turn out well himatami1313 (3:36:15 PM): When they'd finally gotten done, Rouge met her outside. The woman's hair was now more obivously in an under cut style-shaved so that only the top layer of her hair hung over it. And that top layer was cut in a somewhat bowl style, looking actually rather nice and showing off her ears. "I like the curls Kishi. Where shall we head now?" ladyumbra666 (3:38:43 PM): Kishi smiled" Thanks , your hair looks great too." It was interesting. She thought how much the act of a simle haircut could change the looks of a person. " Why don't you pick where we go, you're doing all the spending you ought to have a choice." himatami1313 (3:40:05 PM): "I'm out and getting to stretch my legs. I'm happy." Rouge laughed. "I show you to the dusk light district. You'll get to feed there." ladyumbra666 (3:43:19 PM): Kishi blinked at the offer " That'd be nice but uh you don't have to I mean we're supposed to be hanging out and yeah feeding great for my mental health but what do you get from it.?" Kishi was simply unused to so much generosity in a person. Aside from Zah no one not within her family had ever been so kind and helpful for no reason. Especally when it came to accomadating her special needs. himatami1313 (3:45:16 PM): "Eh the dusk light district is where some of the most interesting locals spend time for feeding so I will probably hang out and people watch." Rouge said with a shrug. "There are plenty of people with a similar nature to yours so there's an entire district for free feeding. You won't have to feel guilty about it." ladyumbra666 (3:48:51 PM): Kishi nodded feeling a bit better, as long as Rouge had something to do as well. She smiled atthe thought of guilt free feeding. Up to now no oen she had used had been unwilling but it had still been awkward arranging such things and she often wondered if they regretted it later and overall while the payoff was wonderful the haunting afterthoughts ruined the effect. " that i will look forward to. himatami1313 (3:52:02 PM): The dusk district was somewhat more crowded then the others. Most people present were either feeding or allowing for the feeding. Rouge grinned and walked over to a small cafe to sit down and people watch. "I'll catch up with you later. There's a roof over that way where people new to the area go for introductions. I cant' fly or I'd show you. Just head that direction and you'll see signs." the blonde pointed somewhat north east-near the entrance to the district. ladyumbra666 (3:56:45 PM): With a wave Kishi turned and headed in the direction rouge had pointed. Taking a deep claming breath she reassured herself that even if she somehow made a mess of this at least Rouge wouldn't be there to see her die of embarrassment. Weaving through the throng of people she kept her eyes peeled for the signs. himatami1313 (4:00:07 PM): At last the girl came to a building where many teenage phyfins stood, looking slightly nervous. Kishi would be able to fit in easily with the group. The instructor was a short yet powerfully present phyfin woman. She had a somewhat beaky nose and prone features but still there was a dark beauty about her. Next to her a young male of the same species-his hair bleached white-stood, waiting to help the demonstration of how things worked. She seemed tobe about to start when she spotted Kishi. "Join the group child and the instruction of how this district works shall begin." ladyumbra666 (4:05:23 PM): Kishi melded in with the rest of the group glad that she wasn't the only one who was obviously feeling awkward. As she waited for instruction she lightly crossed her arms uder he chest and let her tail wrap around her wand to hold it. Normaly She'd have left it in Rouge's care becuase she did trust the woman but she didn't think the woman needed a reminded of how important wands were. That and kishi was loath to be away from her most practised with and reliable weapon. himatami1313 (4:13:58 PM): The woman looked at the group and nodded. "all right, for all of you who have not been here before, I am Olga Vontoshtach. Don't try to pronounce it, just call me Madame Olga. This is my assistant Bruce. Now have any of you fed before at all?" she asked, looking around. It was phyfin nature that you only started needing to feed as a teen so some students needed to have the mechanics of it explained. ladyumbra666 (4:15:52 PM): Kishi made certain she was visable and nodded. himatami1313 (4:16:56 PM): The woman looked to her. Suprisingly Kishi was the only one in the group who had nodded. The rest seemed shy and scared and were shuffling their feet. Olga smiled somewhat. "Allright Miss-Kishi." the woman said, pausing for a moment before speaking, eyes briefly going smokey. "Would you mind explaning to your piers here the basic mechanics of it." ladyumbra666 (4:25:26 PM): Kishi blinked at being singled out than frise at the request. Yep damnit awkward situation less than a minute in. " I umm I don't think I can and um I'm not even sure it works the same becuase .." she lapsed into silence trying to think " well I don't know if it's quite the same really becuase i can't just reach into someones mind." she frowned a bit wondering if she had beena full succubus if she could do such a thing" I have to find a person's dream and from there it's sort of .. complicated and I really can't explain .. I'm sorry."

That was it all further meetings with rouge were happening on Gaia were things like this couldn't happen.

Despite her mental state Kishi's succubus nature was well aware of the amassed amount of hormones nearby and her eyes had begun to fleck with gold as she spoke, her voice though filled with nervousness and confusion had lowered and held a slight purr. Still would around the wand her tail twitched as well. himatami1313 (6:08:36 PM): "Actually you're pretty close to the mark dear." Olga said calmly. She proceeded then to explaining properly how feeding went and had her assistant list off the rules of feeding in the dusk light district for them.

"All right. This is the only district where you may publically feed on anyone. There are warnings on the district so those entering knowing that this is a feeding district. Outside of here it is impolite to enter someone's mind against their consent. But anyone who comes in here should have read all of the warnings and knows that they are fair game, so there is no reason for any of you to feel guilty while feeding in this place. The only other thing you really need to know besides that for feeding is that those who are being concentrated on by others are marked with a glowing symbol over their head that only those of our nature-even foreign ones-can see. Try not to over burden those present with too many dreams or it might hurt their minds. There are PLENTY of people in this district-including others of your kind-whom you may feed on without worrying about others feeding from them." ladyumbra666 (6:14:38 PM): Kishi listened carefully to the words being spoken. It seemed fairly simple all in all. himatami1313 (6:15:30 PM): After the explanations were made Olga and Bruce allowed the students to go. But after the others were gone, Olga took Kishi by the arm and handed her a small ammount of Tison money. "You were brave to try and answer. Have fun dear." ladyumbra666 (6:16:38 PM): Kishi smiled a bit " Thanks I'm sorry I wasn't much help" himatami1313 (7:13:36 PM): "its fine. most of them didn't have a clue what to do at all so at least you tried." ladyumbra666 (7:17:25 PM): Kishi nodded and shifted her wings before walking in t he direction the other teens had gone. As she moved through the throng of people she was careful to watch for makrs and avoid touching anyone. she was well aware of the fact that her body could and would react to physical touch , however she had no clue how to control her inner nature in that respect himatami1313 (7:18:57 PM): Feeding time took a while but Rouge was in a perfectly amicable mood. There was a small slushie shop that she was chilling at, conversing with the owner. She was there mainly so the newer kids could have something familiar seeming to enjoy while looking for mental food. ladyumbra666 (7:28:47 PM): Kishi spotted Rouge and sauntered over to her. Her eyes though they still held thier gold flecks were half closed in contentment and her tail was wrapped loosely around her waist. Kishi's arranged her wings to fold to her back but in a comfortable fashion " I could really get to liking this place " She purred when she reached her friend. himatami1313 (7:29:21 PM): "That's good. Up for a cup of hot chocolate? If you're tired I can take you home or something." ladyumbra666 (7:31:27 PM): Kishi laughed " Rouge I am so far from tired, ******** i may never sleep again. Hot chocolate would be appreciated though." himatami1313 (7:31:50 PM): The blonde snickered and ordered her a nice mugfull. "Well where exactly would you like toh ead next?" ladyumbra666 (7:34:19 PM): Kishi shrugged sitting and lounging. Oh it felt good to be full and not guilty himatami1313 (7:34:50 PM): Rouge snickered a little more. "Your dad would kill me if I showed you to Natasha's though." ladyumbra666 (7:38:34 PM): " what dad doesn't know can't hurt him. Besides I'm an adult now " himatami1313 (7:38:46 PM): "Do you even know what Natasha's IS?" she was cracking up now. ladyumbra666 (7:44:05 PM): she shook her head " No but i doubt it matters, not much i can't handle." Oh a happy kishi was a cocky kishi, The succubus in her was out in full and it feared little. infact it seemed to be looking for a challenge himatami1313 (7:44:33 PM): "Its a dance studio. They teach pole dancing mainly as it increases flexability and is a pretty good exercise." ladyumbra666 (7:48:09 PM): Kishi laughed " We could go and look for your sake." himatami1313 (7:48:57 PM): The pirate grinned widely, an impish sort of grin that was enhanced by her ears. "Drink up and we will maybe head there. And if you promise not to tell your father maybe to the Obsidian Chimera afterwards." ladyumbra666 (7:55:57 PM): Kishi tilted her mug and down the warm sweet liquid. it was delicious and help sate her physical hunger which was returning. " Mmm lead on captain" himatami1313 (7:58:37 PM): The studio was just outside of the district. It was dimmer then most would picture a dance studio-the owner being a somewhat stiff lipped purple skinned creature with white hair and even whiter eyes that seemed to see everything even in the dark. Rouge was quiet as they neared the dancing area. "they have special clothing that is worn for the classes. They're performed in the dark-partially because most of the students have trouble with light but also to keep students from being self concious about their bodies and what they're doing. Its fun." ladyumbra666 (8:05:15 PM): Kishi nodded " Makes sense, I don't think i could take any sort of group lesson in anythign without feeling self consious nevermind poledancing" himatami1313 (8:07:16 PM): The class outfits-that they had several new pairs in every size of-were simple black leotards. Each student was led to a pole and into the room. Their task was to watch models who stood on a somewhat lit stage do each move slowly as that move was called for and then they would attempt it themselves. Natasha walked around to assist students. She could see in the total darkness so it was simple for her to silently correct their form or position. ladyumbra666 (8:12:07 PM): Kishi's eyes filtered in as much light as possible so she could see what was going on. Unlike her best friend Zah she didn't have night vision but her sight was better than a humans in the dark. himatami1313 (8:13:58 PM): Natasha poked her head over and adjusted Kishi's arms on the pole. "Coorvool. Holding zem so cloos cood mayek troobooh eef joo sleep." ladyumbra666 (8:19:47 PM): Taking a second to figure out what the woman was saying Kishi nodded as she got it. She was much more used to a closer togeather grip on her wand then the one needed for the pole. himatami1313 (8:21:32 PM): The exercise was definitely a fun one and by the time class was over both Rouge and Kishi were somewhat stumbling but Rouge was giggling a bit. She loved doing this sort of thing. ladyumbra666 (8:25:08 PM): Kishi rubbed at an arm while humming happily " I thought training worked our muscles. But that. damnit i'm going to feel that for days. Still it was fun. And reassuring to know that even when i'm your age I'll still be flexible enough to make it look good" she teased himatami1313 (8:26:05 PM): Rouge snickered. "I aint THAT old. Dartsmoore now SHE'S old and she can still do that stuff-with her eyes closed even. But she's a midget and can't dance to save her life." the blonde was having a blast. She definitely had to take Kishi out again sometime. ladyumbra666 (8:33:24 PM): Kishi stretched her wings out to encompass both of them while they walks. It was like a giant hug. " Heh you're far older than me, maybe older even than dad." To kishi anything five years older than herself was old. It wasn't a bad thign just a sort of barrier. Although kishi did have to be responsible like an adult now she still identifed mostly as a teen if an older one. Rouge however had always been an adult to her even if her behaviour often labbled her closer to a teen. himatami1313 (8:34:05 PM): "Funny thing is, I still don't completely count as an adult by most Tison standards." ladyumbra666 (8:36:26 PM): Kishi raised an eyebrow " seriously? if you're not an adult then what the heck am i" she remembered being called child by her teacher but she figured that had been a general term not an actual age label himatami1313 (8:37:28 PM): "A teen. The tison age of full maturity is believed to be thirty. In your twenties you're a young adult and prior to that you're a teen or a child." ladyumbra666 (8:38:06 PM): " oh well then does that mean there's place that are for adults that can't go to?" himatami1313 (8:41:07 PM): "well its comlpicated. 30 and above you are considered mature intellectually and responsability wise and that's when you can get to places like the Dahi Archives and places in Myrimika. However from certain teenage years onward you're considered physically mature and can do stuff like drink and have sex and whatnot." ladyumbra666 (8:43:44 PM): "what are the Dahi archives and Myrimika and oh what was that obsidan chimera place you mentioned earlier?" himatami1313 (8:46:15 PM): "The Dahi are the all female guardians of the gates of Tison-they choose who can go in and out of it. They also keep archives of all the important information like names and dates and things. Myrimika is the Tison fresh water realm and they are all kinda enlightened and kinda odd. They're all like monks and stuff. The Obsidian Chimera is the bar/club owned by the Obsidian Elite-the main organization of some of Tison's best beings. Included in them are my brother Jason-whose Tison's greatest mechanic-and my ex whose Tison's greatest assassin. They're all really good friends of mine." ladyumbra666 (8:48:42 PM): Kishi choked " excuse me say what? You're ex is the brest assasin and you broke up on what i'm bettering are less than pleasant terms and you're walkign around here calm as a clam. what the hell are you tbe best at?" himatami1313 (8:49:30 PM): "we broke up on perfectly fine terms Kishi and she doesn't spend time there. At least not usually. And I'm not a member." ladyumbra666 (8:51:14 PM): Kishi breathed a sigh of relief " You are going to make me go grey early you know that right? Myrimika sounds sorta cool, not nessicarily my thing but perhaps an interestign place to visit someday. " himatami1313 (8:53:51 PM): The Obsidian Chimera was a ways away from most of the city. Most of the people going in and out of the small blue neon sign lit club were sort of monsters but everyone was civil and polite. Behind the bar a woman with large green pig tails and a trench coat that didn't completely cover the fact that she wasn't wearing a shirt or a bra was cleaning shot glasses and talking animatedly to a womanwith black dredlocks and a thick pair of black sunglasses-even though they were inside and it was somewhat dark.

"YO DENI!" Rouge called from the door, causin the green haired woman to look up. ladyumbra666 (9:03:26 PM): Kishi stuck close to r

Dear diary:

Been a while since I had time to write. Life is changing and mostly for the better. I got a letter from my mother a bit back. I haven't answered her summons yet. I did want to talk to her but I've decided not to. I need to get my life back in order again before I risk it falling to pieces and from the tone of her messages nothing good can come of our meeting.

For now I'm focused on taking care of the twins who seem to be getting smarter and bigger everyday. They are stress causing for sure but they bring me more than enough happiness to make up for it. I've learned how to shop for them, how to play and help them learn and most importantly how to just let them be. I can't hover and worry all the time.

Infact I've started applying for jobs. I know I can safely leave the girls with Del or Raven and even one other babysitter I'm learning to trust. I"m not old enough to be allowed to a lot of jobs , not that I've got an official age but I know where I feel uncomfortable at in the age scale. Either way I'm applying at a few telemarketing places , a fast food place and some of the pet shops I've seen that aren't likely to stick me with a kid.

Ravan and dad think the responsibility will give me something to do to keep my mind of the twins as well as teach me to be responsible and reliable ( Although I'm pretty ******** I sure I am already) I agree that * could use a job though, I'd like to be able to pay for our stuff on my own and known I earned the money to do it with.Plus Holidays will be around in a few months and I have a new sibling to buy presents for.

Hoping to among the employed soon

Kishi.

Dear diary:

Life has been hectic around here and that's about all I can say for it. I've been working on my hypnosis in tricking someone's mind into not feeling what's there as well as having them see or not see certain things. I'm going to work with Raven on it soon as a progression test.

The twins are acting a bit off lately but they aren't sick. I think I'll take them to see rouge. She should know if anything is wrong.

Work is steady and busy, I've gotten used to my uniform even if it's not something i wear outside of work. Speaking of which i think i should go out and picked up a few more sets fo semi formal clothing. The twins seem bent on destroying the good clothes i have.

ahhhh the holidays are comings and I'm not even remotely prepared. I need a tree and stocking s and lights and ornament and holy ******** presents for a million people. Also Christmas cd's to play so the cheery music keeps me from going nuts. On the bright side people tip better at work during the holidays and the cold weather is bringing in more customers.

In other News I briefly visited raven the other day. Spoke to her for a bit and took her newest child out shopping. I also left her with the number of Pash a fellow Tison guardian who claims to have found a strange leaf child as well.

Raven's girl, Madeline has spider genes in her which has given her two extra sets of arms and some interesting behaviors. I took her to the mall just to let her socialize and see other people interacting since Raven said she'd been deprived of a lot of that. I talked to her, she didn't want to say a lot but she was a pretty interested listener when I was talking.

I bought her some things for her hair, though I think she intends to cut it some, and some temporary spider tattoos. I told her to be proud of what she was becuase it made her different and special.

We ate in the foodcourt then I walked her home and showed offed my hypnosis skills. Making my wings appear and dissapear, change into butterfly wings and then legs not unlike her own. I think she liked seeing me like her becuase she smiled a bit more than before and looked like she wanted to say something.

I can't wait to see her again, perhaps Raven will have a new years party or something.

Finally, learning to drive is not easy, the handbook is confusing and cars themselves seem out to get me. Dad's giving me lessons when he has spare time but I think we're both just getting frustrated. I want to learn this a get a lisence before winter sets in , though apparently learning to drive on snow and ice is beneficial. I'd rather not risk not getting lisence because I'm nervous and testing in bad conditions.

I made it through the Holidays intact, with much help from Rouge, and returned home to find life on Gaia hadn't changed any while I was gone. There was a strange fascination with helping out orphans which I regret missing but at the same time I have enough responsibility.

Dad has banned me from driving until summer, I somehow managed to crash his car going next to nothing due to ice and I flooded it and screwed the gear shift or what not. I Really don't understand cars and I guess I have to agree that I need not to be driving until the weather is better. I'm also going to study the hand book again since I didn't get much out of the first time apparently.

On a brighter note I've managed to pretty much nail my hypnosis skills. Even the physical aspect is going well, using the twins, dad, Del , Gil and a few friends at work I've been able to try it with a lot of different people.

Speaking of work, arrg it's starting to drive me insane. I've learned to deal with my uniform, I've only got to wear it at work and then I can return to regular clothes. It's not even the customers or the fact that I have to be cheery. It's a tiny bit of all that combined with the smell, I can
ignore most stuff but over time I've found I cannot learn to ignore the smells.

All the pastries and other baked good mingled with the smell of so many different blends of coffee and tea is starting to give me headaches. It's also making me not hungry most of the time becuase i see and smell food all day. I don't know what to do. I can't quit my job but at the same time I'm starting to get sick and losing my energy which means I spend more hours dream hunting to make up for the physical nourishment I'm not getting.

I've also discovered that chasing kids around and waitressing is not the same as working out. I've not gained any mass amount of weight but I'm out of practice with my staff work. I need to try and find time in my schedule to get back into old habits before i lose the skills.

The strong cold evening breeze caused Kishi to shiver and lengthen her stride as she made her way towards the Altman hotel. She regretted now not taking a cab but part of her had known she needed to walk there to get her bearings before the meeting began. she might be ready to see her mother again and their meeting was way past due but The young succubus still had nerves fluttering in her stomach and she was constantly mentally revising what she wanted to say in her head.

As thoughts continued to swirl about in her head Kishi reached the stone steps that lead to the entrance and lobby of the hotel. Face set in determination she walked up them barely noticing the building self except that it was a sort of dull Grey color that seemed to almost blend in with it's surroundings. It was a rather unassuming place and while not out of the way and clearly some secret place it wasn't something you'd pay a lot of attention to either.

" Hiding in plain view but still disguised, nice trick mom and way to make me feel encouraged about this." At least if this was some sort of trap or game the twins were safe. They'd been left with her father and nothing short of god itself would stop him from protecting his grandchildren.
