((Did I kill it?!))

((nope, my character's just aren't there, oh it's me Kuma))

((there are other people who could interact... O.o I think I killed it... sadface...))

Sorry took longer then expected XD *goes to reply* XD))


Is that bad” Janu asked softly, biting her lip. The shadows seemed to move with her worry…her powers apparently growing too now that her memories and fear of becoming a monster were gone. She was becoming more of a full shadow cat then ever before…..just as her father had planned. Soon she’d reach her full potential, now he just had to get her to be willing….

She walked over, playing with the tail as she sat next to him. She closed her eyes worriedly, her ears bending down with the emotion. Her tail twitched slightly with it, feeling more natural to her by the second…then again, if she’d been able to remember she would have known she’d always felt something was missing …

((there))

"No, it isn't bad," Talianda responded, curling his tail around her when she sat. "but you do have to learn to control your power." He nuzzled her hair. "they seem to respond to your emotions, like anyone else's. And we can't let you get drunk again, that ends badly."

((Yay, not dead! Pre'acha'n is staring at Rain, though.))

[[i'm cooking... irl and on here]]
[[dammit, now i killed it Dx]]

((hey, shaddowkitty, can you change the color on Pre'acha'n's profile thingy to the seagreen on here? Then it would be easier to tell him apart from Tal in the list.))

Rain glanced over at the raven, raising an eyebrow as she’d been in two deep a thought to notice it until now. She half smiled, sensing magic on him. She however let her eyes fall back to the sleeping child. She spoke softly “witches, shape-shifters and kids, oh my!” She joked with herself, laughing softly.


Janu nodded, somehow knowing she was an emotional person so that this would be difficult. She simply smiled at him, however, hugging onto him briefly. “I’ll try….will you help me?” She asked softly, glancing up at him in uncertainty.

[[kk dra =] ]]

Pre'acha'n blinked, suprised at the lack of reaction from the witch. "I'm, uh, Pre'acha'n... But most people cn't say it right, so Brendan is fine," he said, still not moving from the bottom of the stairs. "So, um, you aren't going to try to do anything to me?" Totally weird...

"Of course I'll help. We can start right now, with the basics of any power," he said, looking at her. "If you want me to shift to my humanoid to teach you, tell me, okay?" Meditation and control. I hope she's a fast learner...

Not unless you try to harm me…..then I’ll be forced to remove all your feathers one by one…..but long as you are nice to me I’ll be nice to you.” She answered with a soft smile and matter of fact tone that seemed at odds with her words. Anyone who knew Rain knew it was the truth, she said what she meant and meant what she said…simple as that. She glanced back to the raven a moment, tilting her head to the side in thought.


Might be best… I like your human form.” the feline admitted with a shrug, glancing at the door with a sigh. She knew that this would be hard…and she was so afraid of getting someone hurt. Still she knew she had to try, Janu would not let harm come to this family……it felt familiar…….safe….warm.

Pre'acha'n's eyes widened at her statement, his body going completely still. She sounded like she ment it! Scary lady! He stood there a few moments before slowly walking over to the corner of the room and sitting there. His eyes wandered the room, but kept going back to the witch. She still didn't tell me her name... But I'm not sure about asking her...


Talianda smiled a bit, his muzzle twitching and letting him know someone was cooking. "Alright, then," he said, sliding of the bed and walking over to where his pants lay. He faced away from her, remembering that most people were not as open as his clan, where nudity was natural, clothes were just convenient. He shifted back, fur melting and shape blending into the humanoid. He quickly pulled the pants on, using his wings as a screen to no upset her. "Well, do you know anything about meditation?" asked, turning back to her.

Curalei rose from bed, changed into a short black and blue dress that really showed off her long, white legs between her knee high boots and the hem of her skirt. She let her hair down, and shook it out, running a soft brush through it a few times - it gleamed in the soft light of the window almost immediately, silky and shiny. Curalei wandered down the stairs and to the bar, pouring herself a hot cup of tea and drinking it quickly.

"I wonder what I'll do today.." She spoke softly to herself.

Rain glanced at the hiding raven, raising an eyebrow. She’d said plain as day as long as he was nice so would she be. Then again not everyone could take her blunt statements with the blasé manner she always did. She shook her head, standing to find what was for dinner. She leaned against the wall, crossing her arms and just watching silently.



I have no memory so ………..I have no idea.” Janu answered honestly, laughing softly. She blushed a bit, sniffing the air as he twitched his muzzle. Curious at scent she pushed open the door, glancing over the banister to stare at the ground. She then glanced towards him again, noting how he hid. She inwardly observed to herself she felt shy and embarrassed at it but couldn’t figure out why inwardly.

Arina pulled the meat loaf our of the oven and mashed up the potatoes she had finished boiling from the strainer. She topped the meat and put it back in the oven. "This always takes too ling" she said to herself setting the timer again and leaning on the counter next to the oven.

Curalei saw the raven-man from last night and immediately gravitated towards him, sitting beside him at that corner of the room. "Hey there," she started. "We met briefly last night.. I'm Curalei." Looking him over a bit, she asked sort of softly, "What's your name?"

"Well, it would be easier after you eat, less to distract you," he said, walking over to join her at the banister. "I think it shouldn't be too hard, They called be an airhead, and I understood this fast." He smiled misceviously. "I could probably carry you, even in this form. Want to take a short ride down?" he asked, holding his arms out.


Pre'acha'n started when the witch stood, staring at her as she walked to the kitchen. I do not like scary people or places, WHY did I come here? He looked up to see the dragon and cat-lady, probably a shadowcat. What is a shadowcat doing here? Tey usually spell trouble... Frack. He jumped when Curalei spoke. "Pre'acha'n," he said immediately. "But Brendan is fine, I'm used to it."

Curalei looked thoughtful for a moment. "I'll call you Pre'acha'n.. It's a beautiful, unique name," she murmured, smiling at it's sound. "How are you liking it here so far?" She asked. Personally, she liked it. Hopefully she could help others be more comfortable here as well.

Arina sighed softly but happily as the timer went off, grabbing her oven mits and taking the now finished meatloaf out of the oven. She smiled to Rain and gave a little wave of her hand, after pulling the mit off and getting plates out for everyone. "Hello deary."

She glanced at the raven, always one to speak her mind she of course did not stay quiet. “Oh calm down, Long as you’re nice I’m more likely to protect you then hurt you. Stop being so jumpy.” Rain chastised him, walking to get herself a cup of coffee absently. She gazed at the roof a moment, thinking still. Something felt off today and she wasn’t sure why…..She closed her eyes a moment, taking a slow sip.


Janu looked a him a moment, tilting her head to the side. She giggled nervously, running a hand through her hair. Oh why not? She nodded, climbing on his lap and wrapping her arms around him. For extra safety she wrapped her tail around his waist, thinking absently the new digit came in handy…she thought she liked this whole tail thing……even if she felt like more had changed inside her.

(( Oh yeah if I could get some notes about the floor plan/layout I could get started on some maps))

"hey, you pronounced it right!" he said before nerly shrinking at the witche's comment. "She's kinda scary. I'm not sure I like her..." he muttered to Curalei. "But other than her, it's nice. There's great food."


Talianda held Janu at the waist, stepping on the banistler a moment before leaping off. He held out his wings, fanning them to slow his decent, tail out behind him to guide his direction. He landed lightly, but not as lightly as normal, clear of any tables or chairs. "Was that fun?" he asked, still holding her.


((dinner's almost done, I'ma go eat now. Be back in a bit, sorry!))

[[sorry, been distracted]]
