Isiah shook his head back and forth quickly in short, curt movements. "No, no no no. It was about.. Well. Kaegan and Connor. But don't worry about it. Things'll calm down by tomorrow, I'm sure." His face was a deep red, from his cheekbones down into his chest from being forced to yell so hard. He coughed once or twice to clear his dry throat, but that just made it worse.

"But.. That fight shouldn't matter unless Connor beat Kaegan or something.. Or if Connor threw the first punch.. If Kaegan just beat up Connor, then there shouldn't be a big fuss..." His voice was still quiet, Isiah yelling so loud had scared him, as well.

"... Right?"

He scratched the back of his head. "Technically, none of it matters. Connor's not a denzien. But.. I kinda got a little carried away.." He groaned, almost looking embarrassed. "Connor's kind of David to Kaegan's Goliath, after all. Kaegan did a pretty good number on him."

"What does that mean? David.. Goalith.. Thing?"

Tsurai blushed lightly. Isiah was making less and less sense as time wore on. He sunk deeper into his stride, slouching more, hands in his pockets.
"I'm sorry," he whispered.
For not understanding, really. Tsurai was apologising for his stupidity, really. But Isiah probably wouldn't realise that.

"Goliath," he started. "It's a bible story. David was this.. little guy, you could say, and Goliath was this big ogre. David went off to kill Goliath, and everyone thought he would die because there was no way that such a little, relatively weak man could defeat a huge giant ogre, but David ended up slaying him with a slingshot. So when people say David and Goliath it means.. David is the underdog, the long odds. It means that Connor didn't really stand that much of a chance against Kaegan." He frowned. "What are you apologizing for?"

Tsurai sighed deeply. "I don't know. I think Connor is smarter than Kaegan.. Sometimes. In his eyes...." Tsurai's posture slumped more, if it all possible. He was practically horizontal while he finished the last part, voice softer than usual.
"For being a gypsy.."

He laughed a little, patting Tsurai's back, stroking in a circular motion since Tsurai was so bent over. "Yeah, I wouldn't doubt that for a minute. Connor's got more going on upstairs than I think Kaegan and I have combined."

Tsurai stood up straight, looking up at Isiah. "You knew he was Romany..?"
He looked at the ground, kicking a rock. "I figured you wouldn't, since you didn't know about the DuPloys."

He smiled weakly. "Connor told me awhile ago, Tsurai. We're not the types to keep too many secrets from each other, if we don't have to.." They drew close to where Connor and Isiah slept- he ducked his head into where Connor was supposed to have stayed. "Sleeping?"

"But you can tell.." He got cut off, reaching the hut already.
Tsurai hesitated for a moment, before following Isiah inside.

Connor lifted the shirt off his face and looked over to Isiah. "No," he groaned, sitting up. His face was a mass of swollen lumps and dried blood under his nose and scalp.

Tsurai hid slightly behind Isiah, not quite sure what he was supposed to be doing.

"What's with the kid? Still afraid of me?" Connor stated in rough, broken Denzien. Good enough to understand, but not perfect. Connor had made a note to teach it to himself.

He looked over to Tsurai, who was now sinking in posture again at not understanding what they were saying.

"What happened out there?" He took the shirt and rubbed his face absent mindedly, "Ceta stopped by."

He nodded at Connor's first question, before grunting at the mention of the Ceta. "Yeah, he uh. Caught me on my way in.." Isiah found the undershirt he had been using earlier, going to the corner to pick up the trough of acid-rain water, rinsing his shirt off in it, ringing it out into the dirt ground, before sitting down next to Connor and dabbing the dried blood away with the shirt.

"He was a little skeptical about you fighting for him. It took a lot of talk." He smiled weakly, suppressing a grimace at Connor's bruising.

Connor grunted briefly, putting his hand up, hoping Isiah's get the hint that he didn't want ot be touched right now.

"Uhh.. Should I go..?" Tsurai mustered, turning toward the door.
"No," Connor looked to Tsurai with something akin to a glare. "Come here," the Romani held his left hand out when Tsurai stood uncomfortably infront of the Gypsy.
"Give me the dogtags," Connor ordered.

Tsurai gave a pleading gaze to Isiah, but then did as told.
"Close your eyes," Connor stated.

Tsurai took a step backward. "W-why?" He looked to Isiah, again.

Isiah pulled his hand away after Connor put his hand up, grumbling inwardly at how he was just trying to help. He slid down to the end of the cot, watching Connor briefly. "Easy, Connor."
PostPosted: Mon Aug 22, 2005 6:58 pm


"You two baby him." Connor answered, twirling the dogtags in his hand.
"Come here, Tsurai, and Close your eyes."

Tsurai swallowed and nervously did as told.
Connor dropped the dogtags and leaned forward, the cot squeaking. Tsurai started to shiver, afraid of what he was hearing.

Connor reached his right arm forward and flicked Tsurai's nose, hard.
Tsurai called out and held it, opening his eyes, hands clamped over his nose and mouth.
"What was that for?!"

Connor smirked, sitting back down and picking up the tags in his hand, his facial expression quickly dissipating to its serious tone. "They never did touch your face, did they?"

Tsurai closed his eyes as he began sneezing.

Connor tossed Tsurai the dirty shirt, but the boy didn't catch it. He was too busy sneezing. "Wipe your nose when you stop."

Isiah quirked a brow, folding the undershirt in his lap, shaking his head back and forth slowly to show lack of understanding. Must be one of those.. crazy romani things, he mused. Do romani do crazy things?

He watched Tsurai, giving him a reassuring smile, sure that Connor was.. well. Connor wouldn't try to do anything cruel to Tsurai while Isiah was there, watching.
