-edited 5/7-
So today was another day. Willow after having carl as a house guest was still slightly sore and still wasn't wearing a full shirt. More like bandages to cover up anything important including the wound, and a shirt that could be buttoned up if needed. It was a crimsion color and hung down slightly below her pants pockets.
Which she kept her paws in walking to the shop. Thorn followed her, appernelty LP had somehow managed to get lost. Quite as Thorn had said but oh well, she knew that the woman as clutzy as she was would find her way to the shop. So there was no point in looking for her.
LP wasn't quite as distance as she had been, still though there was something off about her and the fact that after what had happened didn't seem to bother her at all. Anyone else would've had a cow. Willow meandered over this while keeping a close eye on thorn. Last thing she needed was the Kitten giveing bad omens to others.
"Are we there yet?" The card asked hoping along as fast as she could manage. "After all it is going to rain soon."
Rain? Well that wasn't a bad thing, Willow liked the rain. "We'll be there shortly. Hopefully toby or someone is around we could talk to them while waiting on LP to unloose herself." She said looking at the kitten, she still wasn't thrilled about her but she might as well make the best of it. "I don't know why you have to go about unnerveing LP like that though. You know it's mean of you to do."
"But, but it's fun!" Thorn Cried
Of crouse as the pair came within the door's reach it opened, thanks to rosey. There was no time giving for Willow to reply to thorn. "Willow you know what I think you should do. I think you should throw some sort of party on some random unholiday." She said trying to change the subject and grinned when willow seem to think it was a good idea. Although only Willow could see and hear the transparent ghost it was still reasureing that she liked the idea.

Rio lay on his stomach on the couch, his lovebird plush sitting before him. His legs kicked in the air as he hummed intermittently at Nanda, enjoying doing nothing in particular. In such a nice place, too! Shelves lined with adorable stuffed animals were a far cry from the Pantheon, where things were dark and dismal.
He raised his head a little when he heard the door open, blinking away a touch of drowsiness. "Hello!"
((Hope you don't mind me using Rio. n.n))

[[That's cool ^-^]]
Willow Paused and looked at the man. She hadn't seen him before, nor the plush. So she decided that they much be new.... oh crud they're new and she had thron with her. She looked at the Kitten and then grinned. "Hello. I do want to say ahead of time ingore the kitten. She's a bit.... Well" Willow touched her head as in indicate craziness. Tail flickering.
"I'm Willow, and this is Thorn." She said with a soft smile. Looking around. She figured she'd leave rosey unintroduced for now atleast until she knew how the man felt about anything 'odd' that was to be found in the shop. After all she knew she creeped most humans out when she started talking to or about ghosts.
"Ohhh Ohhh What's that!?" She asked hoping over to study the man and his plush bird.

"Hello, Willow," he returned brightly, glass-like wings fluttering for a moment, "I'm Rio. And hello to you too, Thorn." He couldn't help it, he couldn't just...ignore something. Especially when it talked to him.
Rio sat himself upright and held the lovebird plush out to the odd kitten. "This is Nanda."

Willow waited for the doomsaying but it never came. Odd little kitten, maybe she learned her lesson.... Willow puzzled over the kitten. "Nice to meet you Rio, Nanda? She's a velveteen yes?" Willow asked as she walked over and hoisted herself onto the Table, Playing with her shirt for a second.
"Oh the bird is pretty!" She said grinning as she peered at it grinning rather much like a cheshire cat. "Not to change the Subject, but I do hope you have an umberlla with you! It's going to rain, those things on you're back, if they're made out of what htey look like they're made out of Mayjust melt." She said warning him.
Willow's head landed in the plam of her hand. Too good to be true. "Thorn... what'd I say about giving Doomsays to those that don't ask for them!?" She rolled her eyes slightly at the kitten, She was interesting to have around but annonying.
"She's just a baby Willow she doesn't know any better, I doubt she can controll it." Rosey said in Willow's ear having settled herself near the tiger.
"I know she's just a kitten Rosey, But that doesn't make it right......." Willow paused and grinned scratching the back of her head looking at Rio. "I uh... forgot to introduce Rosey, she's a ghost."

"It is, yes," Rio affirmed with a proud smile, "But we're not sure if it's a girl or a boy."
Alex laughed hysterically inside his mind. She said she! She! I told you Nanda was a girly name!
He did his best to ignore her - usually he did pretty well at not responding to his host out loud when in the presence of others. Instead he nodded at Thorn. "Isn't it pretty? It's a lovebird." He looked back at his wings then, shaking his head with a smile. "These? Nah, they'll just get a little sticky is all."
Willow's exchange with Thorn and then the unseen Rosey puzzled him for a moment. Giving Doomsays? What exactly was that supposed to mean? But when the tiger revealed that there was someone else here, a ghost, he quite forgot to ask about that. "A ghost, really? Well hello, Rosey!"
Just because you couldn't see someone didn't mean you couldn't be polite.

"Oh... ehe... Sorry." Her tail flickered as she looked slightly embarressed.
"Oh, well If that's all. Then yay, you have very hady...errr what would you call them?" She asked trying to claw her way up the couch to get a better look.
Rosey grinned a wide transparent grin. "Hello yourself. See Willow not everyone thinks you're Crazy. You really ought not to listen to the ones that don't believe."
"Rose says hello back." She paused and then looked at the ghost. "I know but you know how it can be... Most people get creeped out when I talk to you because they think you're thin air." She looked at Rio with a grin.
"Ehe, Dealing with the undead sometimes leads people to think you've got voices in you're head if you know what I mean."

"It's okay," Rio assured Willow, "My friend thinks it sounds like a girl's name, too. Maybe I'm the only one who doesn't!" He chuckled.
"Well, they are wings, but I can't fly with them. Maybe you'd like to have a lick, though? They may not be useful just now, but they are edible! They taste like raspberry candy." He had no qualms whatsoever about offering himself up to be tasted. The very fact that he could be delighted him!
"Oh, I wouldn't!" Rio beamed, the smile so wide Willow might catch a glimpse of fangs, rather like a vampire would have. "Not at all. As a matter of fact, you know what? I talk to someone no one else can see, too. Alex."
Oookay dude, a little advice from the voice in your head? I think she thinks people who have voices in their heads are crazy!

Willow watched Thorn and then looked at the man's wings. Those were very interesting atleast the fact of hte matter that htey were made from candy.
Looking to him she tilted her head. "Really?" She watched his fangs which caused her to blink, "Cool, I don't feel so alone in the world."As an after thought she added, "Hello Alex."
Having said that she watched him for a moment before asking him a question that happend to be floating in her mind, "You're not a vampire are you? I mean because I know two Vampires but neither of them have Wings like you."
Thorn peered at his wings once she managed to get herself onto the couch her head was tilted and tail flickered curiously. "Raspberry?" She decided to help herself to a lick of his wings before purring.
"Willow it really is! You should try it." The fact that she'd found something new and tasty that came with this man made her even more curious as to if any of the other people Willow knew had interesting features as such. Her tail flickered when he said something about the voices in his head. "Haha, you two really are two peas in a pod. Both of you hear things that aren't there." The kitten recived a flick from Rosey which caused her to epp and hide behind Rio. "Ohhh what was that. It was like ice." Her fur all fluffed.

"Oh no, I'm not a vampire," he answered readily, "But Alex was." He didn't hesitate to elaborate, since he knew full well it was the kind of thing that wanted for an explanation. "We're two people in the same body, you see, and while it's changed to better suit me, it's got a good bit of Alex still as well. And of course she's still here too, and says 'Hello' back."
Did not, Alex grumbled.
Well fine then, be that way.
"You can try too Willow, if you want." Rio laughed at Thorn's observation. "It's always good to have company. Oh, something cold?" He reached behind him to draw the kitten out. "Come here then, I'll warm you up again."

Willow grinned, "Ah," she chuckled and nodded at Rio, "Well there's atleast two Vampires that I know of here, One being Nara, he barely shows up though and Iden. She's a little less harder to catch but you have to be up most of the night for either of them."
Tilting her head she blinked, watching the kitten she started chuckling. "Roseeyyy you know better than that." Her tail flickered and her legs crossed as she sat down. "So what is Nanda? I mean what kind of bird?"
Thorn started purring after she was picked up by rio. Her paper thin body wedged itself to his chest as she nuzzled his arm and wraped her tail around the other way. "I still don't beleive that ghost bolongy. It was just a blast of ice cold air."

"Oh, Naraka? I met him once, a little while ago. Before I had Nanda." He stroked the top of Thorn's head, bemused by that card-thin body of hers. No wonder she could get so cold!
"Nanda's a lovebird," Rio answered, "Although he doesn't have any green like most of them do. He's special, I guess."
"Oh, come now Thorn! You really don't believe in it? There are a great many things in the world that can't be explained, yet they exist nonetheless." The god was actually a little surprised at Willow's quick acceptance of the fact that he wasn't alone in this body of his.

"Yeah... the last time I saw him I was in a bit of a bad mood. I remember saying, 'you're not excatly a bucket of sunshine yourself.' I think we both were having an off day." She chuckled hesiantly.
"Oh Nanda's a very lovely lovebird" She chuckled, "We are all speical, and each with our own little ability. I can speak to ghosts, some like nayati has a green thumb and makes plants go and well bsically do whatever he wants to with them. On my quest he tagged along and see there was this really high door we had to get opened.... so he used the vines to hold me up there." Her tail flickered as she puased and blinked thinking about the event.
"Oh.....Thorn's very pesimitic." Willow nearly wishpered.
"WEllll being the Doom Card from a set of tarot cards. Would you think I'd be very open to crazy htings like that?"

"Haha! No, he's not the most cheerful person I've ever met. He didn't seem a bad sort, though. His bird was very talkative!"
"Abilities, really? Fascinating! I wonder what Nanda will get up to." Rio scratched his chin. "Oh, he grows plants does he? Wonderful! Alex and I do a little gardening ourselves, although it's hardly magical."
"Well!" he exclaimed. "But if you're from a deck of tarot cards, doesn't that make you a kind of crazy thing?"

"He's not but he's someone to talk to. Although he doesn't particularlly like the idea of the undead he can't see." She said her tail flickering. "Most don't.... It's hard to find anyone to talk to that you don't need to help move on."
"I dont' know, maybe she or he will have match making abilities?" Willow said pondering considering it was a love bird, so it seemed reasonable. "Then again I'm not too sure how well that'd go over." She said with a laugh. "Most of the velvets are too young to think about that or the ones that are... ehh don't understand it an are all strange about it." Her tail flickered scratching the back of her head.
"Nope, because I'm like the velvets I was something that didn't move that mice made work.
