[Yay for better title]
Willow sighed as she stalked through the early morning streets without a soul around. This had been a rather unplesent night not to mention week. The little tiger muttered, towards the only ghost that didn't drive her nuts to help them move on. She couldn't help she'd suddenly lost any idea of how to help them; and besides the fact their restlessness made it impossilbe for her to think.
She was hoping maybe, maybe Nayati would be at the shop, he'd cheer her up.... or would he just shy away again, and act all strange. He was rather confusing himself even after the fact Tia explained everything to her. She sighed, "It's not that I don't want to help them...." She said to her friend as she walked and he glided making a chill run through those that did happen by. "It's that I don't know how.... there's too many and I can't figure out what I can do." She shook her head as he casted a sorrowful glance at her.
Once at the shop the door flung open and she headed inside.

-The brush slide lightly across the canvas, black paint drawing in a delicately thin line, pausing only when the tingle of door bells sounded, equine ears lifting towards the sound.
Glancing towards the 'intruder' Nayati couldn't help but sigh silently as the familar figure entered, but he pulled up an ounce of politeness nonetheless.- "Hello Willow."
-Settling his brush down for a moment, he glanced at her silently, quite certain she as going to talk to him since the shop was empty once more. Boy wasn't he lucky?
But he was dumbstruck besides that, and in silence he sat and watched, silently willing her to stay the hell away from his painting.-

Willow's ears perked towards the familar voice. Nayati, she'd been wanting to talk to him; but she just wasn't sure what to really say. "Hi..."She mubbled before settling herself down on the floor at the wall.
It had been an unplesant walk here, not to metion an unplesant week. She figured she better say something else than just Hi to him, it's not like he was the cause of all this trouble. "How's it going?" She asked him before her eyes turned back to her invisible friend.
"Do I have to tell you again? I'm lost I don't know how to help you or the others." Her ears fell as she listened to the man's plight shaking her head, "I just need to think for a while. That's all..." As the door closed she rubbed her fingers on her head. She seemed rahter upset as she let her head fall against the wall and her eyes closed she muttered something else that was rahter quite unclear save for the last word, "Failure." It seemed almost as she was cursing herself for not knowing what to do.

-But she didn't even try to come over, to pester him with her pleasantness and loud attention. No... today she seemed.. sad? And he found himself bizzarely drawn to it, perhaps an after effect of so much time with Iris.-
"It's going fine.." -The words fell upon the silence, and mildly he shifted so that he sat facing her instead, frown twisting upon his maw, before he bit.- "What is it?"

She opened one eye to look at him. "That's good..."
When he asked what is it, both eyes opened and her head tilted. Almost to ask why do you care? But she didn't, biting back any snappy remarks.
"Eh just a bad month for me... I suppose...." She muttered before closing her eyes again, they stung and she didn't feel like crying; so the smart thing was just to sit there and cool off for a moment.

-Oh for crying out loud... He sat still, much like the prey animal he was as he pondered over the situation in which he'd ended up trapped. Good manners, and a lifetime with Iris begged him to comfort her.
But his past experiences with the tigeress were not so far forgotten. But finally, begrudgingly he lifted himself up, letting the vines slip from his pocket to carry him down the counter. Though he lingered away from her, arms crossing gently over his chest, as he spoke less then comfortingly.- "Why? There isn't really any good reason to mope around the shop, unless you're hiding from someone."

Sighing she got up and shurged. "Try hiding from everyone and their brother." She muttered before looking at the door. Damn thing had to be so high up. There wasn't a ghost she wanted around her right now, and she coudln't reach the knob or she'd leave because she got the feeling he didn't want her head.
"It's not like you care anyways. You proved you don't give a rat's a** about me ever since I grew." It wasn't really ment in an insulting way, but more of a hurt mannor. Her ears flatted as she shook her head.

"Well then, the shop is probably a good place." -He smirked, but only for a moment, tail flicking comfortably behind him.- "It's so often empty anyway."
-However her 'assualt' drew his ears forward, and quickly the smirk ran away his muzzle met instead with a mild frown.- "Why would you care what I think?" -Eyes casting aside lightly, he gave a soft huff.- "If you care so much about what other people feel and think then you're bound for getting dissapointed."
"You're better off simply caring for yourself. It's stupid to let other people get you down."

She nodded softly before looking at him
"WEll... see there's this really crazy thing...." She blinked trying to figure out how to explain it. "See I have these funny dreams... about a guy..." She muttered shuffleing her feet. "Acia's sister said that it's because I have a crush." Willow looked at him tilting her head, "She said it was a normal thing; isn't that funny?"
It seemed almost like she was avoiding his question.

"I guess..." -Though he managed to hide it well, the words had caught his interest. Daydreams were similar to dreams weren't they? So perhaps.. this 'crush' thing was something he needed to explore.
But what was the best way to fish for answers? Leaning back so that is shoulder rested against the wall, he asked lightly.- "Isn't it awfully common to dream though? I thought everyone did. So everyone has these 'crush' things too?"

Willow nodded. She blinked when he asked about the crush things. "That's what Acia's sister Tia said." She nodded matter of factly trying to recall everything she'd said... which involved a rather longgg explaination. "She also explained some other things connected to them... I think the most important would be whomever you're 'dreaming about' it means that you like them..." She shurged trying not to act fully convinced on the matter.
"Poor acia after the whole thing she almost made me walk back here from her house alone. I had to threaten to tackle her to keep her from hiding in the lab."

"Hmmmm..." -Well that wrecked the theory.- "Don't you dream about alot of people though? And alot of things? How would you know which ones are these 'crushes' and which are just regular old dreams?"
"I mean if you have a nightmare about some evil lady with a stiches puller, you certain aren't crushing on her, right?" -Hrmm.. maybe he needed more information.. Now that he thought about it, crushing sounded like an attack. So maybe he was wrong, maybe nightmares was exactly what it was for.
Tail swaying he tried to hide the fact of how very interested he was in the conversation.- "Well once you have a crush, what do you do with it?"

Willow's ear flickered in thought. "WEll yeah, but there's certain kind of dreams.... it's like those movies were they kiss and run into a room and the door closes and it fades out. Sort of thing... atleast that's what I understood it to be."
Her tail flickered. "Ewww no, I have those sometimes... although it's with that trent fellow and he's the size of LP and all I have to fight him with is a stick, some chinese scrolls and my wits. Rather horrible if you ask me." She shivered.
"Well... Tia said something about figuring out if they feel the same way... she never really went into that part of the details... but I think there's this thing called dating." She tried to htink of what movie she saw it in... "I saw it in a movie... I think that's what you do when yhou have a crush... you 'date'; I suppose it's like hanging out; and see if you're made for each other."

((You know.. I just realized that like.. next to none of the velvet parents have partners. XD No wonder they're all so confused. They've never seen relationships. Well except Chastity.))
-He thought back to movies he'd seen in the past. Not the more frequent animated and happy ones. Maybe he did remember some of that, in some of those love comedy girly movies that Iris and Chastity watched.
He nodded simply to her bad dream, a soft look of mild concern and empathic apology touching him.
But then as she continued suddenly something else hit him, a snort escaping him before he could stop it. His ears pressing back in surprise.
Iris was also quite the horror movie lover, and in horror movies something quite similar happened often enough. Kissing and holding, running off into another room. But it didn't fade. Oh no. You got to see the male grapple the female, tearing at each other's clothes. The bizzare wrestling that Nayati had never really understand as anything other then a horror movie violence. As the male sloshed and banged the girl around, while she writhed and shouted from underneath them. WHAT THE HELL!?
THAT was what Willow had? His eyes widened and his cheeks flushed under the emotion. What guy was slamming her around? Hang out. Made for each other? How in the hell do you figure THAT out while you're gettin beaten up?
Fidgeting uncomfortably, his arms tightened in their crossing against his chest, a frown quite obviously lacing his muzzle.- "I don't think a crush is a good thing at all. Why would you want one?"
-Gruffly he added.- "Maybe you can go to a doctor or something. So you don't want that kind of stuff anymore."

Willow watched him, blinking "Eh.... Tia said everyone gets them.... I think the only way for them to be uhhhh.... 'cure' is to find out if it's real or not."
She shurged tail flicking. "Wellll Tia went into the whole thing.... it sounds... odd, I hardly think we're built for the things she explained. Acia agreed..." She was trying not to explain them, speically the way Tia did... but she thought she might have to... "I mean after all none of us are the same speices and we come plush toys right? On the discovery channel they're all live. It's not like we could.. ahem breed.... not in the ways humans and animals do...."
