╚══════════════════╝  "Tree hugging gives you splinters..."
He mimics people around him, though nobody is sure who he mimics when he sucks on other people's hands. Many a time they have turned away, only to turn back and find a rather distressed stranger with a strange creature hanging off of their hand.
He also seems to have some form of narcolepsy, toddling away and falling asleep in increasingly strange places. On top of the blade of a ceiling fan, for instance.
As stated, he is terribly curious, and cannot help but get into everything. His favorite places to play are inside cupboards and drawers, though he is terrified of Katia's mothers' old wardrobe. He much prefers the small girls' toybox.
He is very attached to Katia, though this may come from the possibility of her being his host. [ Likes ] : Stealing T.V Remotes

This allows him to transport himself to another place, at any time the whim so occurs to him. [ History ] : Luka is the result of Katia's failure to summon her mother, an incident she has told nobody about. She does not know that this is what brought the shadow to existance. Regardless of how he came to be, Luka now exists with the Kovak family.
Initially he had frightened Katia, who had certainly not been expecting him to show up. She burst into tears, which sent him into a fit of tears also. He disappeared when Viktor came running to see what had happened to his daughter; and thus, Katia had no proof that the scary shadow man existed.
But Luka did exist, and he was for some reason determined to become Katia's friend. When they had both calmed down quite enough, he approached her again, and was this time met by a logical mind. She accepted him as a being created in some part by magic, and judged his nature rather well for somone just past seven years. He was far too childish, she decided, to be dangerous.
So, she showed him to her father, and announced that he was hers.. Family. Viktor :: 'father' Katia :: 'sister', possible host. The String Puller .[ name ] : LollyxBeans

╚══════════════════╝  feel free to include a quote here, and code as you like. Otherwise, delete this section.
Viktor's hair is dark, chestnut brown, and his skin is tanned.[ Sexuality ] : Straight. In the Middle . [ Social status ] : Viktor is far from a social butterfly, as he has become reclusive in the years since Elisa's death, but he is not an awkward turtle in social situations. [ Area of Residence ] : Durem[ Birthplace ] : Aeka. Core . [ Personality ] : Viktor is a little rough around the edges, but lovable all the same. Outwardly, he maintains a stalwart appearance, but inside he is a great big, soft teddybear, something Katia knows very well.
He is usually cheerful around those who know him, likes a good joke, and a good prank. However, since his wife's death, he has become more surly and more withdrawn from the world. Katia is one who can always cheer him up; and Kali is the one who takes the alcohol away from him.
When angered, he is a violent man. He is also very, VERY protective of his remaining family.
Some would say he is easily manipulated, due to the stranglehold Katia has on him, and in this case they would be extremely right. In any other, however, Viktor is not so easily swayed. He is as hard-headed as his daughter, which was perhaps the only reason he was able to live with Elisa. [ Likes ] : Katia, safe and healthy
Cabbage
A good fight
Soap operas; they're his guilty pleasure [ Dislikes ] : Flambouyant people
Doctors

Losing the TV remote[ Bad Habits ] : Ignoring things that displease him
Grinding his teeth [ Weaknesses ] : Katia
Pride [ Strengths ] : Intelligence, though he appears to be more brawn than brain.
Bravery [ Abilities ] : Viktor posesses an almost inhuman strength, rivalling that of the Aekean orcs.
He also heals very quickly, though not instantaneously. He just has a very good immune system. [ History ] : Viktor was born to a fairly poor family in Aekea. His father was a factory worker and his mother was a cleaning lady, and he was raised to follow in his fathers' footsteps. As a child, he spent a lot of time outside, at least when he wasn't working, whether it be cleaning or cooking at home, or reaching into hard to reach places in the factory.
He was ambitious, though, and as he grew older he found he wasn't happy with his position as a simple factory worker. He raised the money himself, and managed to go for a business degree in University.
This is where he met Elisa. A history major at the same school, he often saw her at the library. Bright blue eyes and blonde hair, he found her stunningly beautiful, and often found himself at the library even when he didn't have work to do. As it turned out, she was an assistant there, so he didn't really have to worry about her not being there when he was.
Needless to say, Elisa noticed the attentions of the large boy, though she stonily ignored them for at least a semester and a half. Near the end of their first year, however, she softened, and began to speak to Viktor. He grew on her, and by the beginning of their second year, the two were nearly inseperable.
Elisa came from a rather well to-do family, a contrast to Viktor's own, and it came as a shock that her father actually owned the company that Viktor's father worked for. He kept this information to himself, of course, and felt strangely ashamed of his family. He didn't tell her much about them, though she constantly pestered and asked about it.
He was very careful with Elisa, as even he could tell that she was very frail, despite her fiery attitude and determination. An incident in their second year left him red-faced and furious, and this played a part in it.
A party on campus had gotten wildly out of hand, and three boys had broken into the library and set fire to one of the sections. Being the only librarian on campus at the time, Elisa had rushed to the scene, calling the fire department and attacking the flames with an extinguisher herself. The drunken partyboys were having none of this, however, and took it away, holding her down to watch the library burn. Weak lungs were not suited for the smoke filled air, and the boys were perhaps more rough than they would have been had they been sober.
Viktor had been at the party himself, and when he saw the flames he rushed to the scene, to find three of his classmates holding down his girlfriend, drunk and laughing about sexy librarians.
He was not happy.
The boys didn't know what hit them; it probably felt a bit like a train. But they weren't holding Elisa for long, and by the time the fire trucks came, they were all holding various, and sometimes broken, parts of their bodies. An ambulance had to be called for one of the boys, and Viktor was in danger of expulsion.
He didn't care, though. Elisa was in the hospital, hooked up to a breating apparatus. THAT was what Viktor cared about.
He spent most of his time there, with Elisa; it was here that he met her parents. Her father was a kind man, not at all like Viktor had thought; and unbeknownst to Viktor, he knew who he was. Elisa's father knew Viktor's father, and from that, Viktor. But he didn't mention it, knowing the pride of Viktor's father, and assuming correctly that it had been passed down the family line.
Elisa healed, and Viktor could finally turn his attentions to his own, other problems.
A disciplinary hearing found him guilty of assault, though as opposed to expulsion, an alternative punishment was proposed. They would instead cut his scholarship from the school.
This was just as bad as expulsion. Possibly, worse. Viktor had been relying heavily on scholarships to pay for schooling, and without them he would be forced to quit school. At least with expulsion, he could have held his head high, knowing he had done the right thing in beating Elisa's attackers to a pulp.
This way, he was shamed, knowing that he was not someone who belonged here. Forced to admit that he fit in better along a factory line.
Elisa was distraught, and begged her father for assistance. Still carerful of Viktors' pride, he offered the boy a deal. Take his money to finish schooling, and once he was done, he could pay him back by working for his company.
Viktor, loathe to leave school, accepted.
He finished with top marks, quite possibly just to spite the school officials, and as promised went to work managing his soon to be father in law's company. He proposed to Elisa, and they married, moving to Isle de Gambino to be closer to her family and the company.
Things were going well for them. Viktor rose in the company, and it was quickly stated that he would inherit it when Elisa's father was no longer able to run it. Not only that, but Elisa was pregnant.
The news was dampened by the fact that Elisa's health wasn't exactly the best. The doctors told her that pregnancy and birth might be too much for her to handle; but that woman would be damned if she let them tell her she couldn't have her baby. She went ahead with it, though pregnancy and birth were both rough. The health of herself, and her baby were both in question.
Somehow, they both pulled through, and the family lived heathily for four years.
This, however, was when Elisa's health took a turn for the worse. She managed to hold on for four months, but inevitably passed away.
Viktor could not handle it. He withdrew within himself, locking himself up in his study and bedroom for hours at a time. His brother realized that he was in no condition to care for Katia, and sent his daughter, Kali, to help.
She descended upon them like a bilzzard, giving Viktor no slack and no pity. He was furious, and for a while, hated her. He didn't want her in his house.
But she stayed, and cared for Katia when Viktor was unable to. Eventually, he became himself again, and Kali left.
Viktor took over Katia's schooling, and resumed work from home for his father in law's company.
About a year ago, Elisa's father stepped down from his position, and Viktor took the company.. Family. Elisa :: Wife - deceased Katia :: Daughter Luka :: 'son' Kali :: Niece. The String Puller .[ name ] : LollyxBeans

[ Full name ] : Katia Lilyana Kovak[ Nickname ] : Kat, Kitty[ Gender ] : Female[ Age ] : Seven and a half[ Race ] : Human [ Appearance ] : Katia has long, silvery blonde hair, usually held back from her face by some sort of sparkly clips. She is a slim child, with fair skin and slender fingers. She is also very short, for her age. She tops the charts at two feet and nine inches, when she should be three foot seven.
Despite her sickliness as a child, Katia is very healthy now, albeit pale. Her entire colouring seems to follow this pattern. Much like her silvery hair, her eyes are blue, though seem more like silver than sky.[ Sexuality ] : Straight. In the Middle . [ Social status ] : Katia is a reclusive social butterfly, if that makes any sense to you. She is just as happy at home alone in a corner with a book as she is with people all around her. [ Area of Residence ] : Durem[ Birthplace ] : Isle De Gambino. Core . [ Personality ] : Katia is a strange child. Perhaps because of the death of her mother, she is very independant, and determined to excersize this. She is stubborn and hard-headed, with a fiery temper to match her Fathers'.
She is also clever, intelligent, and curious. She likes to read and to learn, and absorbs information like a sponge. Because of this, Viktor homeschools her, and considers her his little genius.
She loves to be the center of attention, which happens often due to her cherubic face. She is cute, and she knows it. She works this to her advantage at every opportunity. [ Likes ] : Being right

Adults who underestimate her[ Bad Habits ] : Chewing on her hair

Inexperience and Naivite [ Strengths ] : Determination
Intelligence [ Abilities ] : Katia has limited magical abilities, which lead to her failed summoning and subsequent creation of Luka. (Not that she knows it was her fault.) [ History ] : Katia was born to Viktor and Elisa Kovak, a young couple who had just moved to Isle de Gambino, on September ninth. They were overjoyed, though the occasion was darkened by some sad information.
Katia's mother, Elisa, had had a hard pregnancy. Always a frail woman, she had been advised against giving birth. But, also always a stubborn woman, she went ahead with it anyway, tired of doctors telling her what she could and should not do. She had also had a hard time birthing the tiny Katia, who was placed in an intensive care unit because of her small size. Elisa herself was kept in the hospital for many days.
A sickly child with a sickly mother, doctors predicted that Katia would be disabled in some form or another, and that Elisa would need constant care. Both, however, were too stubborn to listen. Baby Katia grew healthy, and Viktor was given permission to take her home. Elisa improved as well, and Viktor immediately swept her to home care.
Both parents adored their baby girl, making sure she had everything she needed, and then some. To be short, they spoiled her from the moment she was placed into their arms. Viktor was especially protective over her, due to her sickness as an infant.
Elisa's condition was rapidly improving while she was at home, and by the time Katia could hold herself up, Elisa was walking, moving about, and stronger than ever. For four years, she was the shining example of health. Then, things took a turn for the worse.
On Katia's first day of school, Elisa opted to walk her there. Halfway to the building, she collapsed on the street, gasping for air. Doctors rushed Elisa to the hospital, and pronounced her condition critical.
She died four months later.
Before she passed away, however, Katia spent a lot of time with her father, at the hospital visiting her mother. Viktor read to Elisa daily, and when Katia realized it made her mother feel better in some way, she quickly set her heart on learning to read. It was choppy, at first, and frustrating for the little four year old. However, through sheer determination, she managed, and soon replaced her father as the one who read to her mother every day. Elisa encouraged this behaviour, telling her daughter that she should dare to search for information. To learn all she could.
It was the last piece of advise she gave before she died.
True to her mother, Katia seems to be following it.
She became a rather sullen girl after the death of her mother, unable to understand why she was suddenly gone. She withdrew into herself, as did her father, and spent most of her time in the library of their home, struggling through books that grew larger and larger by the week.
Viktor's brother noticed that things at the Kovak home were less than well, and quickly sent his daughter to take care of things. Kali moved in with Viktor and Katia, and helped to get them back on their feet. By the time Viktor emerged from the shell he had crawled into, Katia was halfway through the library.
Without his wife, he began to focus on his daughter, amazed at her progress. He quickly set about arranging her to be homeschooled.
Assured that they would be fine without her, Kali left; and her assumptions were correct. Viktor was able to take care of Katia and himself on his own.
For a while, however, he had not been, and this had a profound effect on young Katia. She learned to take care of her own basic needs, and how to entertain herself.
She also learned the cruelty of people. When she returned to school after her mothers' death, and before her father had emerged from his reclusive shell, Katia was the vulnerable target of bullies her age, and older. She was 'the motherless'. If she made a mistake, it was because she had no mother to teach her better. If she was dressed strangely, it was because she had no mother to make her wear normal clothes. And, true or not, these allegations hurt Katia deeply. She refused to associate with the other children. It was only through a lot of hard work from Kali, and a few tearful outbursts that a stop was put to the cruel words, and Katia was able to socialize once again. It helped that she had a whole new neighbourhood to start over in, as her father couldn't handle being in the house he once shared with Elisa, when she was gone. So, he moved them both to Durem. .

Viktor:
Luka is a little bit afraid of Viktor (read: Terrified) probably because the large man has taken a deep disliking to his daughter's new shadow. He wants the man to like him, though his attempts are dampened by the mischief he can't help but cause.
Katia:
Luka adores Katia almost as much as her father does, and likes to bring her random things that he finds. (Stealing is a concept he doesn't understand)
He also tries to follow her absolutely everywhere. This is probably because she is his host.
Kali:
Luka doesn't like Kali as much as he likes Katia, but almost. He especially likes sucking on her fingers, though she can't imagine why.
Lance:
Lance's fingers aren't quite as good as Kali's, but they'll do. Plus, he brings Cain around, which is good.
Cain:
Luka adores Cain. Specifically, playing Tag with Cain.
Charlie:
Charlie has a fun box filled with interesting toys for Luka and Cain to play with. Little do they know he plays with them in an entirely different way, and they should not be touching them. Luka does not care, though, and likes Charlie simply because he owns the fun toys.

Katia:
Katia is the sun around which Viktor's world revolves. Since his wife died, she has been the only family he has left, and he cherishes her dearly. He dotes on her every whim and need, but knows when to draw the line and punish her, though this is very hard for him to do.
Luka:
Viktor is none too pleased with the strange creature that has begun following his daughter around. He does not trust it, and believes it could injure his daughter, or worse, make her sick. He also has a strange competition with the creature for the TV remote, which it likes to steal from him. This doesn't help Viktor's dislike for it.
Kali
Viktor is very grateful to his niece, both for being a role model to his daughter, and a caretaker to her. Not to mention her reality check, which she slapped him in the face with. He wasn't happy with it, at first, but has come to respect her for it. He is as protective of her as he is Katia.

Viktor:
Katia is rather attached to her father, to say the least. She follows him around whenever she can, whether she's allowed to or not. Constantly underfoot, she is a nuciance, but is too cute to be punished for it.
She's also too cute for Viktor to resist. The tall, proud, and burly man is completely wrapped around Katia's little finger; and she knows it. She knows, and uses it to her every advantage.
Luka:
Katia adores Luka, almost like her father adores her. She heeds his whims, and is usually involved in the mischief he causes. Katia is Luka's host, though she does not know it.
Kali:
Katia thinks that Kali is the coolest thing since toast, and aspires to be like her. The two are as close as sisters, though without much of the squabbling.
Lance:
At first, Katia liked Lance. But, now that she knows what 'man0-whore' means, she's not so sure.
Cain:
While she doesn't much like Lance anymore, Katia adores his little shadow.

╚════════════════════════╝  "That's the thing with magic. You've got to know it's there, all around us, or it just stays invisible for you.” . On the Surface . [ Full name ] : Kalinka Marie Kovak[ Nickname ] : Kali[ Gender ] :Female[ Age ] : 18[ Race ] : Human[ Appearance ] : Kali is porcelain pale, almost scarily so. Her eyes serve a steep contrast to her skin, dark and almost black, often seeming like two dark bruises on her face. She is merry and rosy, however, most often and avoids looking like a corpse. Her pale skin is 'marred' by freckles that she hates and covers with make up or an illusion when it suits her. Which is...well, pretty much all the time. Only those closest to her learn that she has freckles, and even then, they are sworn into secrecy.
Her hair is perhaps her most distinguishing feature, flaming red and down to her waist. When the sunlight hits it, just so, it almost seems as if her head is on fire. Her bangs sweep off to the side of her face, and she keeps it all out of her eyes in a large ponytail.
She constantly wears a black choker, imbued with magic that marks her as Zak's apprentice. A more apt description of the necklace is 'collar', as she has no choice but to obey any verbal commands he gives her. She has, however, found loopholes in this rule.
Most of her wardrobe is what many would describe as 'skanky', short skirts and tops that show off the perky breasts that she's rather proud of. However, she is not a slut; just a flirt. She has just as many pants as she does skirts, and always wears underwear. Frilly and lacy, but it's still underwear.
Her body shape is slim, and curvy. Her grandmother likes to point out that she's made to bear children, with hips to handle twins and breasts for feeding. Kali truly, truly hates it when they're referred to in this context. She's fairly short, though, and lacks the long legs that usually go with her physique. (She's a bit bitter about this.)
Standing at 5'0 (5'2.5 in shoes!) and weighing in at 110 pounds, she doesn't cut a very formidable figure, but don't underestimate her. Posessing a bright, acid green magic, she is not afraid to blow up some heads or melt some faces.
After years of running around with Zak, and just from coming from the family she does, Kali is fairly lean and fit, able to hold her own in a physical fight and posessing endurance to rival a horse. She doesn't tire easily; something Lance is only too happy to take advantage of.
Her ears are pierced, twice on each, and she constantly keeps a pair of gold hoops, and a pair of turquoise studs in them. [ Sexuality ] : Straight. In the Middle . [ Social status ] : Kali is the type of person who, when they try, can get along with everyone. Because of this, she is rather social, though she would much rather be at home practicing. It's not that she strictly MINDS being around people, it's just that she hates stupidity. She has a bit of a reputation as a 'b***h', though she tends to wear this loudly and proudly.[ Area of Residence ] : Durem[ Birthplace ] : Aekea. Core . [ Personality ] : Kali's personality, in many ways, matches her hair. Fiery, and unwilling to go down without a fight, she has a spark that can burst into either excitement or anger at the slightest touch. Most of the time, however, she's happy, calm, coy, and sly. A fan of subterfuge, sometimes you won't even know she hates you. But if she hates you, she hates you. Vindictive to the core, she holds grudges, and will never forget a wrong done to her or one of her friends. Fiercely loyal, she won't stand for anyone hurting them; even if she often hurts them herself, from speaking without thinking, or acting without thinking, or...well, pretty much not thinking and being inconsiderate.
She's a very judgemental person, and is always quick to form an opinion. She's also quick to inform everyone of her opinion. Talkative, she loves to argue and to fight. This trait doesn't do well for her relationship with Lance, and they fight a lot. And then she sulks, and pouts. She's pretty good at it. Stubborn, she doesn't like to admit when she's wrong, and adores being right, though that has nothing to do with her being as stubborn as an angry old goat. She gloats a lot, and is embarassed easily. [ Likes ] : Sweets
Acting

Movies[ Dislikes ] : Bugs
Idiocy
People who don't listen
Celery[ Bad Habits ] : Speaking loudly
Chewing the inside of her lip [ Weaknesses ] : Reluctance to accept change
Holds grudges [ Strengths ] : An intense sense of justice
Creativity [ Abilities ] : Kali is a gifted sorceress, though she hasn't exactly got all the knowledge to back up her powers.[ History ] : Kali is the only daughter of Erik and Laura Kovak, and niece to Viktor. She was born a bright, happy, and healthy baby, and lived a fairly normal life, all things considered. She grew up in Aekea, daughter to a factory worker in an unhappy marriage. The area they lived in was a fairly 'rough' side of town, and there were...incidents. One of which was her magic awakening.
When she was six, or seven, two men tried to kidnap her. They failed, but mostly because she blew up her heads. This was the first time she used her magic, ever; it was also the first awakening. Her body couldn't handle it, though, and locked it away, along with the memory of the kidnapping. She was found on the road, hanging out of the car, with one man dead on the sidewalk and the other in the front seat. The police believe she was saved by a vigilante, who had to leave her hanging out of the car when he heard the cops coming.
After that, strange things, small things, happened when she was in trouble. Boys who tried to pick on her ended up with strange ailments, or mysteriously stuck in trees. One particularily nasty boy disappeared for a full three hours before reappearing with an affinity for flies and a strange croak in the back of his throat. She never took much notice of this, however, chocking it up to luck, and living her life as normally as everyone else.
When her Aunt Elisa died, the whole family was affected, though perhaps not as deeply as Viktor. It didn't take long for them to notice that he was no longer able to properly care for Katia, but no one had the heart to tell this to the proud man.
Instead, they sent Kali to watch over Katia. Unable to accept this as her sole objective, Kali quickly set to 'fixing' her uncle, tongue-lashing him out of the room and berating him back to work. She helped Katia with her school-work, and even rid her of a particularily nasty group of bullies. Katia and Viktor soon became as close to her as her own father and mother; and she was rightfully upset when the time came for her to leave.
Upon returning home, she found things were not as she had left them. Her parents were holding world war three nightly at the dinner table, tossing insults back and forth until it escalated into a full-blown screaming match. The situation is less than bearable. Her father, always a temperamental man, hated having her mother in the house. He often took his anger out on household objects; chairs, dishes, walls, doors, they all felt his wrath. Then, one night, he turned on his wife. He accused her of being a whore, and of cheating on him with another man at the factory. Finally, the truth came out. Laura no longer loved Erik, and she HAD had an affair.
She left the same night, and Kali hasn't seen her since.
Her father became quite the drunk, paying little attention to his daughter and less attention to the world around him. He often flew into rages, breaking furniture in the house - but never did he direct the anger at his daughter. Not that it was okay. It was just less than it could have been.
This would have been bearable, had something else not been happening in her life. Only a few weeks earlier, she had found a mysterious book in the library at which she worked, and ever since touching it, weird things had started to happen. Levitating chairs, her room turning vibrantly green, and purple splodges appearing on her skin were only the mildest of issues it caused. She didn't know the explanation. That is, until a strange blonde man appeared. He told her she had stolen his book, and was causing chaos with it. He also told her that he was being blamed, and he needed her to clear his name. She agreed, and somehow this turned into the revelation that she was magic. Not long after, she became his apprentice.
Bouncing between lessons with Zak, school, and her wartorn home was not easy on the young mage. She quickly discovered that Zak was not all he had first appeared to be. Charming, yes. Intelligent, yes. But he was also selfish, rude, obnoxious, and arrogant. He placed an enchanted collar around her neck that forced her to obey any verbal command he gave, and was often less than helpful with the magical lessons.
It all came to a climax one night, when her father was drunk, Zak was demanding that she come to his house, and her school was threatening to expel her for all of the days she missed when her magic was surfacing for the second time. She came home late, and her father demanded to know where she'd been. He didn't buy the 'studying' excuse, and drunkenly accused her of being like her mother.
Always temperamental, Kali responded angrily; and her father exploded. He told her that if she wanted to be a slut like her mother, she could do it on the streets - and with that, he kicked her out.
Only then did it occur to her that she had nowhere else to go. It took her a few hours, and a lot of phone calls, but she finally remembered Viktor and Katia's house. She hitchiked out to their house on Gambino Island, only to find it empty and deserted.
She was now homeless.
She wandered for a while, breaking into the house and sleeping in the porch for a night. The next day she headed to Viktor's company and asked for a meeting. They told her that she'd have to wait for a week. So, she did, squatting in his old house and buying food with the money that she'd had sense enough to bring with her.
When her uncle finally saw her, he was outraged. Not at her, but at his brother; also at his secretaries, for not letting her in immediately. He quickly whisked her off to his new home in Durem, and sent a very angry message to his brother, letting him know that when he knew how to care for a child, he could have his back. This message came in the form of a fist to the face, followed by a messy brawl at their grandfather's house. Axel didn't stop them. They haven't spoken to each other since; and Erik has made no attempt to get his daughter back.
Kali, however, didn't mind. She was quite happy living with her uncle and cousin, though her parents' behaviour does bother her. It also bothers her that they have done nothing to get her back.
Her lessons with Zak continued, since she had no choice, and after a long chat and a meeting with her Uncle, Zak convinced him to let her study magic full time. The issue with the school disappeared at a wave of Zak's hand, and Kali fell full and true into the magical world.. Family.

Viktor:
Kali respects her uncle immensely, though there was a short period in which she couldn't stand the way he acted. This was quickly fixed by what is referred to as her 'reality check', which she slapped him in the face with.
She actually no longer considers him her uncle, but a father of sorts. Since her own, y'know. Kind of sucks right now.
Luka:
Kali isn't sure if she likes the little shadow, or wants to stuff him in a bag and never see him again. He's adorable, but he has this strange habit of sucking on her fingers...
Katia:
Kali loves Katia like a sister, and protects her like her own daughter. She does everything with her; from watching her while her father is at work, to 'spearheading' her homeschooling.
Lance:
Kali knows this boy is attractive, but she's not sure that he's her type. He's smart, funny, and musical, but he's also an enormous playboy; and while Kali acts like one herself, she doesn't like to sleep with people unless she has a relationship with them.
And she's not so sure Lance is the type of guy who has relationships; but damn, the things she'd like to do with him...
And, the things she does do with him - they've given the relationship thing a shot, to great success. Despite their bickering, Kali and Lance just seem to...fit, with one another. In more ways than one. He's the sweetest boy she's ever been in a relationship with, and the most attentive. She loves how he spoils her, though not with material objects. His attention, and loving hands are better, to her, than any bouquet of stupid flowers; though she does enjoy getting those once and a while.
Cain:
Kali thinks this thing is as adorable as Luka; and as a bonus, he doesn't suck her fingers!
Vate:
As the elf left her in the bathroom with Howl, who was sliming, her opinion of him ranks just above 'spider' and below 'enormous jackass'.
Howl:
He's cute, she does have to give him that. However, he doesn't seem to understand the concept of monogamy. And, he has a crush on her, which is her own fault really. She'd only been trying to give him a taste of his own medicine.
Talk about backfire. Now he won't leave her alone.
It's not so bad, though. He teaches her, and he's much nicer than Zak. They're even friends.
